East and West: Rashida’s Best!

Posted By Emily-Dallas | Mar 28, 2009 | 8 Comments | Category: Celebs, Magazines, Small Spaces

I just saw I Love You Man and it was one of the funniest movies I’ve seen in a while! I have loved Rashida Jones ever since she was on The Office.

But how could you not love her? She is so freakin adorable! And we think just the same about her NYC studio apartment that was featured in Domino, in Feb ’08.

Her apartment is only 400 sq ft but this little lady managed to transform it to fit all of her needs! One large room holds a dining area, living area, and bedroom! The article gives great tips on how to save space and organize effectively.

Her studio makeover included these things:

1) Efficient floor plan 2) Hidden Storage 3) Focused color scheme

Her color scheme included soothing light blue, black and white, with splashes of bold magenta!

Her symmetrical arrangement is perfect- two bookshelves flank a dainty white sofa.

I love her black Panton chairs- incredibly chic!

She managed to combine a bunch of different styles in her apartment and make it all look so seamlessly put together.

Fast forward a year later and her home is featured in Glamour. No, not that home…the other home! This one is on the west coast, in Los Angeles, and let me just tell you this home is just as fabulous as the last one we showed you!

Her LA home was designed by the talented Katie Fine and her celeb stylist friend, Estee Stanley. It looks simply stunning, I must say! This bright and colorful home seems to fit Rashida’s charming personality to a tee.

A lot of the furnishings came from Mecox and LA’s Dan Marty Design.


This living space looks so comfortable and provides a great place for guests to go and mingle (Rashida likes to entertain a lot). Walls are Elephant’s Breath by Farrow and Ball.

So now that we’ve seen her initial two houses, all that’s left to do is wait for her to move again! We need our next installment of Rashida home eye candy. She has the east coast down, and now the west, but how about Texas, Rashida? It’s a nice and central locale!

Star-Studded Closets

Posted By Emily-Dallas | Mar 25, 2009 | 7 Comments | Category: Celebs, Small Spaces

We constantly see celebs looking flawless and dressed to the nines on the red carpet. But do you ever wonder where all that magic first began? Well, it starts in a “little” place I like to call, a celeb’s closet.


Whose is secretly a pig sty? (think Jessica Simpson on Newlyweds) Which celeb has their jeans carefully categorized according to light, medium, and dark blues?

Well, we wish we could show you the secretly messy celeb closets….but that aint gonna happen in this lifetime! As long as there are magazines and staged photo shoots, we’ll only get to see those perfectly organized closets (the ones that we yearn for)

Most of these closet photo shoots consist of stars prancing around their closet, wearing their Sunday best, carefully posing, wait, I mean pondering, which outfit they will be sporting on their next trip to the tanning bed.

Kim, you are all dressed up for us- you shouldn’t have!

Singer Jewel’s closet is nice and simple. Her closet looks like maybe something she maintains without an assistant’s help. But you never know, this picture probably cut off half the closet!

A boa? Rollerskates? What’s going on here in pop sensation Miley’s dressing room? Didn’t her mom teach her not to skate in the house/closet?

How could you expect anything less from miss Paris Hilton? I don’t think an inch of closet space is left!

The closet everyone covets- Rachel Zoe’s!

Decisions, decisions…Jamie Lynn Sigler wonders what to wear on her date with Entourage’s “Turtle”!

I don’t think she will have a problem finding the right shoes!

I bet baby Harlow’s closet is just as big as her fashionista mom’s!

Jessica trying on shoes in her closet (featured in In Style). I don’t think she has enough hats?!

Kimora’s closet is crammed with things! At least her closet gives off a homey vibe with a leopard print carpet, Louis side “table”, and antique chaise.

I like how Nikki’s closet within a closet has glass doors so you can just shove everything in and close it on up! The dark wood floors are a nice touch also.

Mariah Carey’s home was on MTV Cribs a while back and she has her own room- just for shoes! She owns more than 1,000 pairs- just a leetle excessive I think! You’d have to wear about three different pairs each day to wear all of them in a year! Who has the time!

And America’s cutie patootie, Eva Longoria. We’ll let her have as many shoes as she wants, she’s just so adorable.

I’m not sure why Paula keeps buying more clothes because she ends up on the worst dressed list in Us Weekly at least once a week. She needs Tim Gunn to come over and do some spring cleaning in that closet!

Hope you enjoyed the celeb closet tour! It definitely made me want to re-organize my whole closet now- maybe I’ll add a “shoe room”…or better yet, a shoe corner!! Mariah would be so proud!
