Get the “Park City Luxe” look on One Kings Lane

January 18, 2012 in Architecture & Interiors, High Country Shopping, Mountain Living, Real Estate by Christine | No comments

Last year, a residence at Montage Residences Deer Valley was treated to a chalet-chic makeover by interior designer Philip Gorrivan and Alison Pincus, co-founder of private flash sale site One Kings Lane.

The residence is open to the public, so if you’re in town for the Sundance Film Festival, stop by and check it out. But no matter where you are, you can recreate the ultra-luxe look in your own home.

Tomorrow, Thursday, January 19, on One Kings Lane, members can purchase rustic-chic items inspired by the Montage residence. The “Get the Look” sale will feature home décor, artwork and furnishings, all similar to those hand-selected by Philip Gorrivan and Alison Pincus.

To check out the sale, and a before-and-after video of the residence, click here. To become a One Kings Lane member (it’s free and takes just a second), click here.

Friday Favorite: How to do orange and blue

January 13, 2012 in Architecture & Interiors, ML Recommends by Christine | No comments

There’s lots of orange and blue around town these days, and let’s be honest, the color combo isn’t always so easy on the eyes. But we ML gals love our city, and our Broncos, so in honor of tomorrow’s big game, we rustled up some orange and blue of our own:

Broncos colors have never looked so chic.

Have a room (or a few) that needs some design TLC? We know just what to do.

On Thursday, January 26, the professional interior designers at Slifer Designs are offering one-on-one input and advice—for free!—at their Cherry Creek Shopping Center or Edwards Riverwalk stores.

“No challenge is too big or small,” says vice president of retail Susan Ferrari. “Our team of interior design professionals, including several who are LEED certified, will be on-site at both our stores to answer questions and provide input and ideas on everything from a new color scheme to how to enhance a home on a budget.”

The “Bring Us Your Design Challenge” in-store event is one day only, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and again from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Appointments are encouraged but not required and walk-ins are welcome. But if we were you, we’d contact the store directly to confirm a time to ensure availability. Here’s where to go:

Cherry Creek Shopping Center
3000 East First Avenue, #233 (upper level, across from Neiman Marcus)

Where to stay when you ski: Exclusive Resorts’ slopeside homes

January 4, 2012 in Architecture & Interiors, ML Recommends, Mountain Living, Travel by Christine | 2 comments

My perfect ski vacation requires just three things: a cozy home on the slopes, a crackling fire and a good book. Maybe it’s because I’m from Northeast Ohio, where it takes 10 times as long to trudge up the hill as it does to slide down, but I’ve never been bitten by the ski bug.

Whistler, British Columbia, residence

But ski vacations? I’m always game. I just stay behind and après all day while my friends hit the slopes. The key (and the often-tricky bit) is finding a ski vacation house that lives up to those I’ve conjured in my mind.

Happily, a few weeks ago I happened upon my kind of powder stash: a collection of slopeside homes in all the very best mountain towns; beautiful homes that combine great design with five-star amenities.

Lake Tahoe, California, residence

These aren’t your average vacation houses. These are multimillion-dollar luxury residences that offer plenty of room for family and friends—think 3,500+ square feet, gourmet kitchens and lots of private outdoor living space—and are located in quiet, private enclaves.

Lake Tahoe, California, residence

But unlike the other homes on the block, you don’t have to buy these to enjoy them. These residences are all part of the Exclusive Resorts portfolio. The concept is akin to a country club model. To become a member, you pay a one-time (mostly refundable) membership fee, plus annual dues, and in exchange you get to enjoy a portfolio of luxury homes in locations throughout the American West and around the world.

Beaver Creek, Colorado, residence

Best of all, these homes come with dedicated vacation planners who handle every last detail of your stay, from dinner reservations to snowboarding lessons, grocery shopping to housekeeping. Want to end each day with a fireside massage? Done. Eat olives and brie every afternoon at 3:30? Easy.

And should you tire of visiting Whistler, Jackson Hole, Lake Tahoe, Vail, Deer Valley and Telluride (imagine that!), you’ll find gorgeous Exclusive Resorts homes everywhere from Tuscany to Turks & Caicos.
