volpi by quadrille

few women can really be tagged a "tastemaker" but there is certainly one woman who fits the bill to a "t"-- pun intended.  tory burch recently revealed her beautiful, if not slightly unexpected, traditional-style beach house to vogue.

while not too many pieces in her home scream "i'm a beach house," her sunroom is nothing short of exquisite.  down to the woven armchairs, geometric sisal rug and blue & white porcelain, i'd venture to say not much is lacking except, perhaps, a tall glass of iced sweet tea (i am from the south, after all).

the fortuny-esque print of quadrille's volpi pattern looks amazing on the basketweave armchairs.  this is certainly a beach house that i'd love to frequent even when the centigrade is low.
