finds and a contemporary chandelier. A talented, trained eye like Chad's is required when scanning estate sales, Etsy, and 1stdibs for cool furnishings with potential, and the mod brass lamp, retro acrylic rocker, and large urn with brass stems are all fabulous finds. The pair of carved snakes on the glass console and ceramic elephant bookends on the mantle are pieces from Emily's menagerie. In the living room, a beefy emerald green Jonathon Adler velvet sofa anchors the space and the ram's head coffee table base that Chad found on 1stdibs brings the wow factor. A pair of campaign- style arm chairs found at a Houston estate sale with new plump leopard print cushions and an exquisite Indian mosaic accent chair from Perch fit right in. It's in the dining room that things get sexy. As nods to Emily's fashion sense, the walls are dressed in on-trend Brett Design ombre

Chad had the hardware on a pair of spectacular Italian blown-glass lighting fixtures gold leafed and layered a hide rug over a sisal carpet for additional texture and drama. The antique wood marble-topped chest, another Renaissance Interiors score, is granny-chic when paired with a contemporary Saarinen table and swanky Lucite and brass chairs with pink metallic leather seats. The bright, sunny family room is all about lounging. Layers of textural neutrals – patterned sisal, hide, silvered velvet, and leather – punched up with color in the art and pillows create an inviting space designed for relaxing. With eye-candy accessories, elements of glamour, and a love for color, Emily's fresh fashion sense shines just as brightly at home as it does in her popular shop.
