separated at birth.
i haven’t had the time it takes me to put together a separated at birth in a while, and truth be told, i don’t really have the luxury of time to do one now. but busy be damned, i’m doing it anyway! i thought i’d go a little bit rock ‘n roll today. have fun, and ummm, enjoy the music.

steven tyler; and lucy chadwick’s house via the selby.
draper striped sheets from dwellstudio; and morrissey via doorsixteen.
elvis costello and his camera; and abigail ahern’s mantel via the selby.
lonny bedroom; and a warm and fuzzy george harrison.

These are great! Totally inspired. Morrissey!
i still totes have a thing for lenny. rawr!
Oooo Love these! :-)
Bowie is my hero! I like this photo of him (before his botox and veneers), the elvis costello combo is tres aperture magic! and the Morrisey has me in the mood to play his song Last of the International Playboys! George Harrison=Lush!
love the masculine spin here!!
yay for the dudes! :)
the first one ,please
Lovely as always!! xo
thanks so much y’all! so fun to work on – but i spend waaay too much time on them! :)
Ahhhhh!!! So good. My favorite guy in my favorite column on my favorite blog. :)
I’ve always liked that sheet set, and now I know why…
ha! thank you. i like those sheets too.
this was a challenging one. i spent hours on it. harder than it looks, i think. :)
you had me at Lenny! please don’t stop. this is my favorite of this series thus far!! truly brilliant. oxo
ah love it – one of my favorites of this series :)
Lovely, the Morrisey is fantastic. Also, i’ve just spent the last hour researching vintage-style chesterfields. I think my decision has been made with the first pic.
love those old chesterfields, too. let us know what you find!
God, that mantle is perfect!
All are absolutely clever. But the David Bowey and Steven Tyler…extra love!
thanks – i’m not a huge fan of steven tyler, but i couldn’t resist this pair. give me old school aerosmith. ;)
victoria, thank you for giving us bowie as a room. thank you.
you’re welcome. bowie is the man. :)
Yay! My favorite feature! I love the Elvis C one. He’s WAY too cool!

fantastic, all of it! can you do another rock version in the future? because this made my day :)
yes – just for you. :)
I just came across your blog and LOVE your separated at birth post! You nailed! Looking forward to the next one.
Cheers,D
this is not the first time i’ve wanted to curl up and snuggle with george harrison haha
i find this a particularly attractive photo of him, myself. :)
Perfect pairings again. I don’t know how you do it. I LOVE Bowie!
Oh man I’m so glad you found the time to do one of these posts because I LOVE your “separated at birth” posts! Excellent! :) Agree with MO above…don’t know how you do it!!!!
And LOVE LOVE LOVE George <3
awesome awesome awesome post!
hi victoria…
your eye candy is consistently just…the best! blogged ya today here. the pictures were all strung together so i hope you don’t mind so many. i wanted to show my upholsterer the chairs i found on craigslist so i referenced back to your ‘new digs’ and do you know what? the chairs on cl were almost exactly the same. funny how an image gets so lodged in your brain!
i’ve been a huge fan of your style ever since i stumbled across you around 3 years ago. when i saw your color scheme, i was like, yes! oh…oh my gosh! that’s it! even though i have fewer midcentry pieces and more of a modern romantic look, it’s your colors i am so drawn to. and i completely understand the vacillation between black and white. they are both the ultimate neutral, the ultimate in starkness, the ultimate ultimate. they are opposites but in a way they are the same because they both provide a clean slate and drama at the same time.
thanks for fun reads!

thank you so much, hannah!
OF COURSE the Morrissey pic is coupled with the Dwell Studio bedding I’ve been crushing on forever! Always love when you do these, but especially love this one today.
I LOVE these! I think these kinds of creative exercises are so much fun. They really make you look at things in a different way. Except for Lenny. I always look at him in the same way. HOT. :)
this is hands down one of my favs! you should check out my calibrations of interiors with album covers here: http://blog.athomearkansas.com/category/cover-with-style/
thanks mandy! i love your idea, as well! really well done!
thanks so much, victoria! that means a lot coming from you. if you ever want to collaborate on music posts, i’d be thrilled to send over ideas.
This made me laugh! Love it!
Loved the idea!
Really separated at birth!
