Sharing a Penthouse with a Sibling.... (D Magazine)

DMagazine had an interesting article of two siblings sharing a penthouse space. Well, it's a 12,000 sq. ft space, so not really all that bad huh?? Well, you see... both Kari & brother Kirby Schlegel wanted the corner penthouse unit at the 'W', so their father stepped in & decided instead of buying them 2 INDIVIDUAL units, he figured why not create 2 separate apartments from it !?!

They searched out architects and designers Lionel Morrison & Jan Showers to handle the project. LUCKY kids aren't they? I do hope they're grateful. Kari was looking more for a Domino flair in her space while her brother Kirby wanted a darker, more masculine look to his apartment. Another cool feature is a common area they have for entertaining...Nice!  


Hope you all enjoy your weekend!

Before Sex & The City, there was 'Carrie's Diaries'...

I pre-ordered this book back in December of 2009 and it finally arrived yesterday! Good thing, because I'm so excited to start reading it. Carrie's Diaries by Candace Bushnell, is all about Carrie before SEX & The City....and how about this book jacket? Isn't this the prettiest you've ever seen? I'm sooo looking forward to seeing the NEW Sex & the City film this May & hopefully I'll finish this book before then!

Quit to avoid acne

Now we know that smoking is the cause of acne – it’s non-inflammatory type, if not of it’s inflammatory type (that is just not proved). That means one must quit smoking in order to avoid constantly growing severity of his or her acne problems.



How to quit smoking? There are many ways you can try yourself or with the help of your friends, or specialists in this sphere – psychologist or physician.



First – stop smoking. You can go cold turkey, or make your cessation step-by-step. In my opinion it is ever better to stop smoking once and for all. If it will be too hard to battle nicotine dependence first few weeks – while nicotine gets out of your body – try nicotine replacement therapy. It is better than smoking, and soon you will be able to quit nicotine dependence completely. Though it’s better to stop nicotine flow at all.



Go and read Karr’s book about smoking stop – lot’s of people manage to quit with it’s help.



To stop smoking completely you must also keep away from places where there is smoke. Secondhand smoke is got to be the one dreadful thing for you. So ask your smoker-friends to stop when they are with you, try not to pass through or be in smoky rooms. Secondhand smoke is also bad and it can certainly lead to your picking up habit once more.



Go for sports, be on fresh air more often, avoid bad thoughts and stresses, manage them better with physical trainings and exercises, not with smoking tobacco.



You’ve got to understand that in order to quit smoking you must make certain efforts.



It will help you a whole of a lot not only with your skin, but with you breathing, heart work; it will improve great your state of health, and then you’ll be able to control acne severity and manage to get rid of them quick!

My Latest ZGallerie Purchases...

I went by ZGallerie this past weekend and bought the saber tooth tiger skull (of course it's not real) as well as a few of the crystal perfume bottles.  I like the idea of having one or two unexpected items in my home. And how about these cool Biscayne coaster set? I had to get these because my coffee table desperately needed them! Also, while at ZGallerie there were two pieces of artwork that I wanted (but didn't end up buying).


This colorful piece (Collective) by Jodi Fuchs & of course my favorite, Butterflies in Flight 2  by Jennifer Goldberger.  I hope to be back to buy at least one of those art pieces.... I just haven't made up my mind if I want to SPEND the $299......YET!

Maria, from John's Journal (Home Tour)....

This Friday I'd like to share another home tour brought to you by the lovely Maria of John's Journal blog.  I noticed right away that she has the same West Elm ZIG ZAG carpet that I do, it's by far one of my faves! Also, do you notice the cool zebra print console table? It's a DIY project she did!  You can learn more about how she made it and where she purchased some of the items here. 


Thank you Maria for sharing your home with us. If you have a home you'd like to share here on Made By Girl, please email me and I'll let you know what I think.
