PALM BEACH-STYLE HOUSE

Oznell — Wed, 24 Jul 2019 00:14:49 GMT

Thought this was a fun change of pace from some of the more serious, historical houses I've been finding lately.

The homeowner's house appeared in the GlamPad-- she was the proprietor of a home decor store (lucky!) and used to have quite a different style which she described as "French, shabby chic, white". Now she's drawn to tropical, color, and "Palm Beach chic". I get such an anticipation when I see her front door, juxtaposed with that exotic tangerine wallpaper! By the way, the paint color on the door is "Pink Corsage" by Benjamin Moore.

Not really my personal style, or colors even, but I enjoy her joie de vivre. You can feel her playfulness in her choices, and her willingness to listen to her own drummer.

What a pretty brass chest, and I like her elephant. She says she loves to incorporate the animal world, especially flamingos, elephants, cheetahs, peacocks. Sounds like me but I lean to pheasants, owls and bunnies. Oh, but of course I love elephants too.

Sort of a trellis wall paper. Talk about Palm Beach chic!

Her curio is so pretty with the melon background, delicate figurines and shells.

Houses like this, which seem to authentically reflect the owner's specific personality, or well-thought-out "mood", are among my favorites, regardless of style...

I like some of the elements and the overall vibe, but there's something about the home that just somehow misses the mark. Somehow, it doesn't seem pulled together. I like the white campaign dresser.

I like the mixture of colors - the rooms look comforting and comfortable. It's a wonderful cottage-style home with pieces that she apparently loves. I love it too!

I like the wreath on the door.

@Oznell I like at least one thing in every room, but in the end the home is just too much for me to even take in.

I like this but would prefer less pink. The front door is a pretty pink..I don't care for any of the wallpaper. The bedroom is my favorite room.

hmmm, my vision of Palm Beach style doesn't relate too much with these pics. Most of the style doesn't seem very beachy. There's some pretty pink & coral colors I like. But the furnishings, not too much.

The home is filled with the things the homeowner loves.

For that reason, it’s Beautiful!

Not my style.....not enough space, too busy. But I'm sure the owner is comfy in her home, and that's what matters.

The unity is excellent. Everything flows. Apparently her "key color", the color, it's tints and shades, is orange (or red orange), which is a warm color. I could never be comfortable with an orange wall, or a lot of orange anywhere.

My favorite part is the front door. The rest of the house is not what I expected.

The only thing I like is the pink door and the wreath on it. The orange wallpaper is yuck and so is the living room decor and bedroom -- heavens NO. It looks like amateur decorating not at its best.

It makes me say "Awww," @Oznell

I don't get so much Palm Beach as I do fun, sweet, and magical. I'd LOVE to visit her. It looks as if you would, too.

No, I'm not saying I love every single thing in the home, but the whole feel of the home is just that, a home - a welcoming home.

Yeah, you nailed it, @GingerPeach -- your reaction is pretty much the same as mine!

egads....it's too eclectic for me and pink is just sooooo not me. There is an end table in the living room that I loved though. It had the geometric cut outs on the sides (sort of a Greek key look) and appeared to have some lighting built into it.

An organized mish-mash.

About the only things I like are the bedroom, minus the rug and pillow and the dining room less the wallpaper and place mats that definitely do not go w/the curtains.
