I love this book. But then I love the whole monochromatic look. If you love color this book is not for you. This book gives you wonderful ideas. Her home is very soothing and elegant.

I received my copy a few days ago and couldn't put it down! This book is sooo inspiring if you like romantic decorating. It is beautifully illustrated and has many helpful how-to directions for both wealthy and budget minded individuals, but what I liked best about the book was the "romanticism" (if that's a word!) of it. Ms. Mcclintock's philosophy seems to be to DREAM and LIVE beautifully, and to express this through decorating. Her home is like a beautiful, daydream that she lives out (on a grand scale!). Although, she also explains how to achieve a similar (sometimes exact) effect while on a budget. I found this to be the best decorating book I've ever purchased, and I probably own about 30-35 books and approx. 90-100 decorating magazines!!
a beautiful life
