House Crush: Sloan Mauran's House

Leave it to those Canadian designers to design yet another stunning home. They have the most impeccable taste.  Check out the residence of Toronto interior designer, Sloan Mauran.

I adore the brass hardware. A perfect example of how to mix silver and gold.

LOVE the mix of formality and family.  See, you CAN have chic rooms that are kid friendly.

There's a starburst mirror over the bed. Do I really have to say anything else?

To see more of this beautiful home, go here.

Osaka Japan Inaugural Tweed Run - 2011

Thrilling photos of Osaka Japan's inaugural Tweed Run! What more can I say...

All photos: kkuwajima

There were close to 400 photos to look through from this day -- the ones I am sharing with you are my favorites. kkuwajimam, the photographers Kazuki Watanabe and Kaoru Kuwajima have done a fine job. Well, I did my best (in editing) to help tell the story of surely what was a most spectacular Tweed Run! Honestly, I am so impressed with the Tweed bicycle fashion styles seen here -- and worn so well by everyone.

If you notice throughout the photos (and are able to spot it), there is a small patch or badge. Apparently all the Tweed bicycle riders were given one. I thought it was the nicest touch. That very same badge graphic was used on the invite as well. If are you curious enough go to the Tweed Ride Report, just scroll down to find the invite for the Osaka Tweed Run -- then you'll know what I'm pointing out here. I just think it's such a good idea! I would LOVE to have that badge to add to my Tweed Ride spokes card collection...
