Not all of us have the luxury of a separate home office. And for anyone who works in a multi-purpose room — such as a living room or guest room — a computer armoire is a great buy.

Crave Worthy: Alain Berteau Instant Classic Side Chair
I love the look of this Alain Berteau Instant Classic Side Chair, but I like the packaging even more. Featured in the May/June 2007 issue of Blueprint, this sassy seat arrives de-constructed and folded up into an impossibly flat box.

Aside from antiques, it's not often that I see a dining chair that's so outstanding and lustworthy as the Niki Jones Silhouette Chair ($407). The shape has beautiful proportions and such a delicate shape. Its form is based on classic French antiques, but has been updated with a high gloss lacquer.
Meg Ryan Reduces the Price of Her Bel-Air Mansion
Nearly a year ago to date, I let you know that Meg Ryan had listed her six-bedroom, seven-bath Bel-Air home for the tune of $19.5 million. With no bites, she took it off the market in February. Now, she's relisted the property with a new real estate agent, knocking the price down to $14.2 million.
Sale Alert: Restoration Hardware Holiday Sale
To celebrate the spirit of the upcoming season, Restoration Hardware is offering a special savings of 20 percent off of holiday décor. But don't worry, if you're not ready for red and green, the selection includes versatile items like rustic glass hurricanes, crystal votives, and classic pillar candles.
