Who doesn’t dream of having a dressing room?

I have a room in my home that has had many uses, and recently I decided to make it in to a dressing room. I know, it sounds a bit extravagant! However, as my career grows I do spend quite a bit of time coordinating my wardrobe and accessories for photo shoots and segments, and on a few occassions I end up in hair and makeup prior to those shoots in my home. Is that enough justification?

I have centered the design of the room around two of my basic needs: accessorizing and grooming…not in that order. I am orgainizing all of my jewlery (as you can see in a past entry), shoes, scarves, gloves, sunglasses, and handbags and have set aside an area where I can do my hair and makeup.

This custom made pillow has inpspired the color of the room, with a pop of raspberry the color palette creates a sense of glamour.

And then, of course, the pillow inspired these foo dogs: as an accent, perhaps on my vanity:

They do ward off evil spirits, don’t they?

I have been searching for a contemporary vanity. I did find some fabulous options, all of which are $1,500 or more, and then I scoured IKEA. I found a unique vanity, and decided to make it mine. This vanity has high gloss white doors giving it a contemporary feel on the outside, and on the inside it has four drawers, a glass shelf, and a mirror. It is not only a space saver (tall instead of wide), but after I am finished getting ready I can close the doors and hide my obsession with beauty products from my friends and family!

I am still searching for the perfect barstool to use in front of the vanity when it is open. I will post more pictures as I finalize the room. Stay tuned.

If you have a dressing room, or you are creating one, please email me with pictures and I will select a few of my favorites to share.

If you don’t have a dressing room, why not create an environment in your bedroom, bathroom, or closet that encourages you to start the day in a glamorous way? Bathe the room in your favorite color, and bring in bold accessories. If you share your space with others, this should be the space that is all yours where you can express your creativity and personality!

The Inaugural Blog…I’m Finally Doing It!

After many conversations with my friends, emails from viewers, and struggles to keep up with emails to update people on my trials and successes in my quest to make the Kelley Moore brand nationally known I have decided that it is time to begin my own blog.

Understand that I am not technologically inclined, and so as much as I would love this page to look and feel like my brand I am not that savvy yet. As I learn more I hope that this blog will morph in to something that looks consistent to the brand I am developing.

I hope you will check in and send me comments, advice, and tips. I see this as a chance to get to learn from you, as well as an opportunity to share with you. If you are out shopping and see something you think I should know about please send me a note. If you have a story idea or would like to see a segment on the morning show please let me know. I am always looking for new topics, ideas, and a way to inspire other people to entertain and explore their style.

I will also be posting video clips from my travels, tapings, and photo shoots.

Thanks for all of your continued support and for all of the fingers that are crossed out there in my quest to take Martha’s job!
