HEADING TO THE WEST COAST FOR LCDQ LEGENDS OF LA CIENEGA MAY 7-9

One of the most imaginative design events is the annual La Cienega Design Quarter's Legends of Design in Los Angeles. I am thrilled to be attending as an Ambassador this year,  and from May 7th through 9th the days are  filled with wonderful panel discussions, parties and launch events along the boulevard.  Showrooms and shops, sponsored by the fantastic list of publications and companies below, will have said events,  their windows decorated in the theme Novel Interiors: Storytelling by Design.  I have covered the amazing designer-created windows before, where designers takeover the window displays of the participating design stores and showrooms along La Cienega, creating a theme-specific spectacle, appropriate for their proximity to Hollywood. This year, there will be over 40 windows designed around the the theme of bringing stories to life from the pages of classic novels and books (find the complete list below). I cannot wait to join fellow Blogger Ambasadors Stacey Bewkes of Quintessence, Ronda Carman of All the Best, Jason Oliver Nixon of Madcap Cottage, Lisa Mende, Nicole Cohen of Sketch 42, Remodelista's Julie Carlson, La Dolce Vita's Paloma Contreras, and Jill Seidner of Material Girls. 

If you will be in CA, register in advance for the wide array of events here. Follow the goings-on I will be sharing on my Instagram: @stylebeatblog and @lcdqla at the hashtag #LCDQLA
