I think it is really fascinating to look into the homes of the rich and famous, as they have all the means to create the perfect home. This time we will take a look into actress Gwyneth Paltrow’s Long Island home. So here we go:

This is our actress in her gorgeous living room. Gwyneth obviously like her home light and classic with pops of pastels. On a side note, I adore her dress!

Here is another view of the living room. The cool blue sofas are balanced with warm  pops of fuchsia.

This staircase in very simple and modern, but the wallpaper adds a warmer more “liveable” atmosphere than if it was left white.

Gwyneth has pale floors all over her home.

This dining room is the epitome of simple romantic design. The Swarovski blossom chandelier is available here for those of you who can afford it. It is $27,350.00.

This is Gwyneth’s daughter Apple’s bedroom. In keeping with the rest of the house, this bedroom is light and airy, with splashes of fuchsia for a girly princess look.

The kitchen has matte black cabinets and beige tiling.

Two white chandeliers adds a bit of glamour over the kitchen island, and makes a great contrast to the black cabinets.

Gorgeous lilac and white bathroom.  I have never seen tiles placed in stripes like that, and I think it looks stunning! The pearl mosaic tiles and sparkling mirror sets a tone of glamor, while a floor vase with a bouquet of pink and white roses adds instant romance and femininity.  Topped off with a hot pink ghost chair!

Speaking of fun features, what would the bedroom below be without the giant cow parsley murals? The dimension of the flowers makes the bed look very low and cozy. You can get dandelion and cow parsley wall stickers from here.

I discovered textile designer Anette Tatum through one of my favorite blogs Velvet & Linen. I love these three designs Anette did for her celebrity clients Marcia Cross and Minnie Driver.

Marcia Cross’s lilac and white twin nursery:

Soft lilac and white nursery with butterfly mobiles and princess veil over each bed. Anette writes more about this nursery here.

This is so bright and fun! I get a circus vibe from the valances and color theme!

*

Minnie Driver’s yellow and white Malibu nursery:

This super soft yellow and white nursery is too pretty! Love the polar bear rocking horse and the pretty skirts on the shelfs over the changing table. Read more about Minnie’s nurseries here.

This summer house is an eye candy explosion of pretty pastels. Combinations of white with pink, blue and yellow are the seen throughout this home.

The darling pink, white and blue living room. This is patterns done good! The sofa has the largest pattern, containing all three colors of the room. From here, the colors and patterns radiate throughout the room.

White, yellow and blue lounge. Takes a lot of courage to buy a yellow sofa with large sailboat pattern..

The beautiful white, pink and blue patio. Complete with anchors and lobsters.

A nautical themed entry, with polished compass floor and a globe map table. Even the stair rail is a lighthouse!
