Rachels new Mansion

You really can’t call Rachels new home a house, it’s a freakin’ mansion!

I’m really in love with her style (interior design wise as well). All that white is so modern and chic but like Rodger pointed out it’s not really baby proof, but who cares – it does look fab!

Look at it:

house1

That is the view from the backyard. It is a really nice looking house with a garden and pool. The rooms are really spacious and bright – a perfect home for her new family.

house7

I’m a fan of the transparent candle holders and the lamps, they add such a nice touch of yellow colour to the room. I’m not particularly fond of the chairs, they look kind of fragile.

house6

The patio is really beautiful! The only thing that is so not Rachel are all these plants.

house5

The bedroom is also really spacious and beautiful, the bed almost looks a little too small for this big room.

house4

What a gorgeous fireplace that is, with that black marble. I do not live in L.A. but is a fireplace really used or is it just for decorative purposes.

house2

The couch is really nice and I can only image how much all that cost. I mean even the rug is vintage versace.

Last but not least that funny picture of a totally exhausted interior decorator Jeremiah Brent ;)

I think her outfit for the Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2012 show was perfection. I mean these boots and THAT coat, just WOW.

The only thing that I do not like is that its supposedly real fur. She has been slammed for wearing real fur in the past and it does not look like she has changed her attitude toward that topic.

Rachels Spring 2012 Presentation at New York Fashion Week

Rachel reflecting on her first presentation at New York Fashion Week and why she is still terrified.

In the last scene behind the reporter we see our beloved Jeremiah painting the walls barefoot. So funny! ;)

Jeremiah Brent – Styling Assistant Rachel Zoe Inc.

jeremiah_brent_intdA

We all met Jeremiah Brent on the first episode of the new season of The Rachel Zoe Project.

Jeremiah has a background in interior design. He taught himself both how to design and how to build furniture. He already has his own furniture design firm and has designed everything from small houses to big nightclubs.

Jeremiah is originally from Modesto, CA and moved to Los Angeles at 19 years old.

Casasugar.com did an interesting interview with him. You can read the whole interview here.

The most interesting parts of the interview:

CS: How did you meet Rachel Zoe and get involved with the show?

JB: I have always had deep admiration for Rachel Zoe. Aside from her unwavering work ethic, she has always maintained such class and dignity with the development of her brand and the life that’s accompanied by it. When I heard through a mutual friend that she was looking to hire someone new in her company, I jumped at the opportunity. I had reached a point in my design career where I couldn’t find the passion that once fueled me, and I had always been fascinated and curious about fashion. It was all a very natural progression.

 jeremiah1

CS: What’s one project you’ve created for Rachel that you love?

JB: I have been given the opportunity (however terrifying) of creating some very special spaces for Rachel, both professionally and personally. Rachel is not someone who easily relinquishes control, if ever, but she always has for me. She has consistently trusted both my capability and eye for design. Getting the chance to do some of these amazing spaces (which you will see this season) has meant a lot to me. This year has been a very important one for Rachel and Rodger, and I feel so fortunate to have been a part of those experiences.

jeremiah2

CS: What are your passions outside of the interior design world?

JB: Design is my passion every day! It’s everywhere! Like I said before, I’m really fueled by creativity. Aside from that, I love being outside, surfing, being active, taking unplanned day trips to new places. My passion is life! Oh and laughing. Laughing is key!

New Beginnings – A Review

I finally saw the first episode of the brand new season of The Rachel Zoe Project.

If you have not had the chance you can download it here or here or here or here ;)))

rachel zoe elle shoot pregnant

I have been reminded why I love Rachel so much. I love her personality, her attitude, her silliness and above all her aesthetics as a stylist and a designer.

s04e01b

Pregnancy really seems to agree with her. I noticed a change in her attitude, she does not flip out that much over deadlines and clients and dresses. Sure she has her crazy moments (and I love her for that too ;)) but her priorities seem to have shifted.

s04e01a

The main new people in Team Zoe are Mandana Dayani (Director of Brand Development) and Jeremiah Brent. I have written a blogpost back in June about Mandana. You can read it here.

In the days to come I will do some extensive research about Jeremiah Brent. (Some call it stalking, but I stick to “extensive research” ;)) So stay tuned.

Have you noticed Mandanas voice? When you close your eyes you swear it is Taylor talking. Thats really odd isn’t it.

And can we talk about that hottie Jeremiah. Seriously, how hot is he??? Like supermodel hot!!! ;))

Stay tuned for more posts (about Jeremiah, Rachels new house, Rachels Family shoot for ELLE).

New Beginnings – Big Changes

s04e01

Have you all seen the premiere of season 4 of the Rachel Zoe Project? Unfortunately I have not since I live in Europe and have to wait until it is available online.

But I looked at the pictures and I have to say that Jeremiah is just too handsome ;)))

I’ll let you know when I watched the episode.

Here is the official description from Bravo:

In the season premiere, Rachel Zoe, Inc. is growing exponentially, and so is Rachel’s family. With a baby on the way, Rodger looks for a bigger house, while Rachel sets her eyes on launching her new fashion line. After an Elle Magazine photo shoot with her hubby, Rachel and Rodger jet off to a round of interviews for a potential new junior stylist to replace Brad. Hoping she’ll slow down and take it easy, Rachel tries to manage it all leaving Rodger concerned for her health and well-being.
