When you're blessed with stunning architecture and a gorgeous view, sometimes less is more. With so much design inspiration and great furnishings everywhere, it's hard to say no to the shopping habit. But, I think this summery dining room and deck is a prime example of how clutter-free comfort can be impressively chic.

I recently featured India Hicks's Harbor Island rental property, so when I came across an image of Ms. Hicks at her home in the Bahamas, I had to share its gorgeous Summer style with CasaSugar readers.
This workspace really works due to its mix of feminine and masculine elements.

Friends of mine who've attended the Glastonbury Festival have raved about the experience and the music. Located at Worthy Farm in England, Glastonbury Festival attracts over 14,000 music fans, making it one of Europe's largest music festivals.
I'm really loving the cool Summer style of the festival's Tipi Field.

The James Bond films have been running for over 40 years. Not only do they feature buxom babes and a suave hero, there's also a lot of eye candy in the interior design department. Take a look at some of the interiors from 1962 through current day, as well as some of the products that have made their mark in these films.

Browsing through Swedish shelter magazine Sköna Hem, I caught myself daydreaming about dozing off to a scandalous Philippa Gregory novel in this sun-drenched indoor porch. Everything about the space facilitates a three o'clock siesta. The double doors close off the outside world.

We've been talking a little bit about outdoor furniture lately, now that Summer is approaching. I've been grappling with whether or not I like truly "decorated" outdoor spaces. Seeing the outdoor lounge of Kirsten Dunst's Nichol Canyons home, which is on the market, I'm convinced.

I wrote about the pale yellow and gray trend nearly two years ago, but baby's still got a hold on me. I spotted this subtle living room in Homes and Gardens, and couldn't help but want to scratch everything in my own digs and re-create this look.Naturally, the Ligne Roset sofa and the B&B Italia Fat Fat — Lady Fat Table make the room all the more crave worthy, but the palette is really what makes me swoon. The room has a mostly white and pale gray background with small punches of yellow and some black elements to balance out the pastel.

If the designer of this bathroom had used less restraint with the color palette, the effect would be potentially clownish, or at the very least, a little melodramatic. But thanks to the subdued palette, elegant furnishings, and chrome features, the whole room looks divine.
To get the look, start with a simple, sophisticated sink, such as this Whitehaus Wall-Mounted Sink With Towel Bar ($309).
