Sparkle, Shimmer and Shine

As seen on the runways of style icons Ralph Lauren and Cynthia Rowley, fall fashions include bold splashes of shimmer and shine with metallic finishes and fabrics. To add this shimmer to your home, try bringing in metallic touches through lacquered walls, silver leaf accents, organza silks and mirrored tables and accessories. Black glass tabletops and chrome furnishings will also provide a contemporary design with sparkle.
