Mecox Gardens - Turquoise, Jade & More...




A combination girlfriend/business trip to Dallas led to a fun visit to Mecox Gardens. If a chair could have the power to make you feel more sophisticated, thinner and better looking - than this is that chair for me! Fighting off a cold the whole trip, I instantly felt better sitting in this gorgeous turquoise leather chair. (being surrounded by childhood friends I've known forever didn't hurt either. Thanks Diana, Ann and Lisa!)

I'm guessing I'm behind the design curve because this was the first time I'd come across jade bowls, vases and trays like these. Love the fresh, spring green color.

    My Dear Notting Hill -
    Perhaps we could barter!
    Love those chairs and they really gave me a lift on a gloomy gray day!
    Also, adore anything green and those jade bowls make me green with envy!
    Hope you left your cold and came home stronger!

    If I could have those chairs, I would give up all the furniture in my living room. Stunning, absolutely stunning.
