PS: I CANNOT WAIT to see what the women's clothes look like.

Frankly, scarlet

I had a story in the Boston Globe last week about what it means to be a redhead. It was fun to write. I've actually had a version of this story brewing in my mind for a little while now so it was nice to finally get it on paper.

In honor of this, here are just a smattering of some magnificent crimson interiors:

Bedroom eyes

I think styling your bedroom should be the nexus around which you compose an entire house. Think about it: it's the last thing you see at night before you fall asleep and it's the first image you see when you wake in the morning. This is a space that can set the tone for your whole day. It should make you feel safe, happy, inspired, energized, calm -- whatever it is you need.

With that in mind, here are some bedrooms worth dreaming of:

Best purchase ever

I bought this purse for £10 from a street vendor the first week I was living in London, and it continues to be one of my favorites. I can see the wear and tear starting to show, so I've been giving it a break in recent months.

A very important date

Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" hits theaters today. I can't wait to see this film - I was obsessed with both the animated Disney one and of course the 1985 made for tv version (the jabberwocky scene continues to give me wonderful, creepy, amazing nightmares.)
