Well known and seasoned designers added some really elegant leather beds to the new collection from Poltrona Frau this year. Patrick Norguet, Roberto Lazzeroni, and Jean-Marie Massaud put the final touches on an already outstanding bedding collection that follows the minimal and clean lines concept. Each bed features a distinctly unique pattern to keep you visually compelled. The Bluemoon by Lazzeroni features large diamond shaped tufts that offer a rich appearance, the Flavia by Norguet features vertical lines that compliment the straight overall shape of the framing, and the X stitching of Massaud's Jack works well with its bold square corners. See the entire collection of bedroom furniture as well as the entire new collection from Poltrona Frau here.

Mykonos Greek Islands Mansion Pictures

2009-11-04T10:00:27Z

This property is fittingly named "Nirvana". Located in the Greek Islands on Mykonos, this mansion measures 3,767 square feet. What is even more impressive, are the fabulous grounds that the property is located on. It is a fairly secluded area on a hillside offering wonderful views of the sea. The grounds are large and contain a pool (must have in Mykonos) and a guest cottage that is set among a secluded grove of olive trees. Priced at €4,300,000 it is far out of my price range, but I am hopeful that the guest cottage can be purchased separately. Via.
