The World’s Biggest Home Décor Show
Last week, at the Design Bloggers Conference in Beverly Hills, they announced the bloggers selected to participate in the High Point, NC Design Bloggers Tour!
I’ve always enjoyed reading the news from High Point Market and wanted to go. It’s a huge trade show that happens twice a year in North Carolina. And this year, I will be there with nine awesome bloggers!
And I’m taking you along with me as I cover the latest and greatest in home furnishing design.

Universal Furniture was giving away this cool, leather and brushed brass Jensen chair at the conference.
And I won it!!! Thanks to all of you who liked my photo on Instagram.
I’m giving it to our daughter, Alie. We are redoing her West Hollywood apartment. This will elevate her stylish, new look (which I will, of course, show you). Here is a text that she sent to me several weeks ago and I saved it. (It’s the little things we moms love).
It was intensive learning at the Design Bloggers Conference. But we also had some fun with Cindy Hattersley from Rough Luxe, my new friend, Debra from Fifth and State (she is so talented–a designer, shop owner, and European tour operator) and Annie Diamond from Most Lovely Things. Lots of laughs.
Also, I’m no fashion blogger, but here is the link to my gingham dress. We are all color coordinated! And speaking of black and white… look at the tile and outdoor furniture at the new Century City mall that Annie and I visited our last day in L.A.
Cool, right?
Let me know what topics, trends and innovations you would like covered from High Point Market. I’ll be there for a few days with Cindy Hattersley starting April 15. If you are going, please let me know! Carla Aston already told me to wear comfortable shoes! In the meantime, I’m going to check out the other participating bloggers’ sites.
Stay warm and dry during all these storms! I am enjoying the longer daylight hours though. How about you?
So…so excited to meet you and Cindy! You are going to love being there. This will be my third time and I am definitely hooked:)
You all look so stylish there and it was so great to meet you in person! Love that Century City Mall flooring….I must go on my next trip back!
What fun! Congratulations, they chose well:)
You are so VERY cool and creative!!
YOU are the coolest, Ariana!
Hearty congrats on being a winner! Lucky you and lucky daughter who will get that lovely chair. Loved your gingham dress. If you find a comfortable and stylish shoes to wear to market you’ll have to share that as well. They are so hard to find. Or is it just my aging feet?
I just bought some leather Cole Hahn sneakers at Nordstrom Rack that feel great, Celia. Thanks!
Congratulations Mary Ann. Looking forward to all of It! Your daughter is so right. You are very clever!
Thanks so much, Gabrielle!!
Mary Ann,

Congratulations!!! Well done. Looking forward to seeing all your posts.
Thanks, Roberta!
Congrats on the bloggers tour and on winning that cool chair! Before we move my daughter from NC, I want to check out High Point!
I wish I were going too! Just to continue how much fun we had in LA. And I adore that text exchange with Alie! She’s as sweet as she is beautiful and oh so cool!

Both my kids loved YOU. I wish you were coming to High Point, too!
That text is the highest praise. You deserve it, but it’s true that moms rarely hear it.
I know…I think I will text my mom right now!
