I agree with E. George. I love the passion, energy and sheer talent of Valentino—but mother nature is quite a grand designer too. Especially in the Gstaad house-open up the darn drapes and look at that VIEW!

Somehow I missed this post. I love the Valentino! His clothes are gorgeous. My mom owns one of his couture suits from the early 80s. It's so small (a size 2 I think) I'd never fit in it. Trust me, I tried, albeit years ago. Anyway, I think the homes reflect his style, but it cracked me up when I read one of the comments that said they look fit for a queen. A truer statement never said LOL rue .-= rue´s last blog ..Daises and Tulips =-.

The homes are gorgeous, no doubt, but very museum like. And I hate to be cynical, but all I can think is, "Get over yourself Valentino!" Yes, you are a brilliant designer, but you're just a man. Picturing legions of staff scurrying about just to prepare for his fabulousness to arrive seems ridiculous! I would be embarassed to have people waiting on me like that. It all seems so severe and put-on. But I guess that's why I'm me and he's him. I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog by the way! .-= Stephanie´s last blog ..Tada's Revolution =-.

Whew! Livin’ large! The Parisian Chateau is definitely over the top, but I’m really taken with the Swiss chalet. Looks cozy and inviting, especially on a cold winter’s night.
And Martha Stewart cracks me up! “I write cookbooks.” HA! Like how could anybody NOT know who Martha Stewart is?!? Too funny. I’ll have to check this documentary out.

I saw this film when it came out and absolutely loved it. It was so good, and his houses are just jaw-droppingly fantastic and over the top. .-= living with lindsay´s last blog ..Unique DIY Valentine's Day Favors =-.
