Have You Ever Had a Custom Closet Built?
First, Fab got one. Now, another woman I know just sent out pics of her new custom closet. Closets systems are all the rage these days, and I'm definitely coveting these shoe shelves and cute blue boxes.

Hazelnut's Bryan Batt Opens Up to House Beautiful
If you're a design enthusiast and a New Orleans fanatic like me, you know Bryan Batt as a co-owner (with his partner Tom Cianfichi) of one of NOLA's finest décor boutiques, Hazelnut. I featured the boutique back in February of '08, and now Batt is set to ink his own home décor book. If you're just mad for Mad Men, you know him as Sterling-Cooper's in-the-closet, recently fired art director Salvatore Romano.
Has Your Child Slipped Into Her First Pair of Heels?
My daughter doesn't have a swank pair of custom-made high-heeled slippers like Suri Cruise, but she was gifted a bag of plastic princess ones a few years ago. Though my girl only wore them around the house to play dress up, her feet are not strangers to an arch. While shopping for dress shoes at Nordstrom, there were several wedge and tiny kitten-heel styles available in her size!
Pretty Wee Woman: Suri Cruise Rocks Silvery High Heels
Trendy tot Suri Cruise and her mama have always had a passion for fashion, but now they are both rocking high heels! Katie Holmes's 3-year-old sidekick recently strutted her stylish stuff down a Boston street in shimmery shoes. The wee one has worn designer garb since leaving the womb and is often primped and polished, so it's no surprise that her latest footwear selection gives her about an inch on her peers.
Casa Quickie: Roll With It
There's only so much we can do to make our storage look pretty without calling in California Closets for a pricey custom mahogany masterpiece — like Debi Mazar's shoe paradise. But just because you gotta work with what you got doesn't mean you're at a loss. When it comes to storing towels, roll them and stack them instead of folding them.
Debi Mazar Is Movin' Her Entourage
Although Entourage is back for another season, in real life, Vince's publicist Debi Mazar and her own entourage are on the move. The actress has listed her family's 2,096-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-bath 1930s Spanish-style hacienda in Los Angeles for $1.4 million. The property has a lush, gated front garden and a grassy back garden that make an ideal place for her 3- and 7-year-old daughters.

29 pianos, customized individually by artists, have been placed around London landmarks for the public. Signs that say "Play me. I'm yours!"
Cool Idea: Spiral Wine Cellars
I've always wanted a wine cellar, but they're hard to come by when you're house hunting, and it's not so easy to build a cellar for a house that's already built! That is, unless you call up Spiral Cellars. The design firm will essentially dig a hole in whatever room you want a cellar, with a trap door to match your flooring if you want, and install a wine cellar that you access via a spiral staircase beneath the floor.
Cool Idea: Mona Chair
There's nothing sexy about folding chairs. Spare seating is almost inherently an eyesore, relegated to dark closets and dusty garages, sleeping with monsters under your bed. So, when I saw a folding chair that doubles as art — iconic art — I took notice.
