Elle Decor was recently welcomed into the West Village Victorian townhouse of fashion designer Nanette Lepore, which she shares with her daughter and husband. The interior is a mishmash of design styles from every era, incorporating modern and traditional, but mostly lively and eccentric pieces. I personally would kill to move right in, and wouldn't change a thing.

In honor of Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan's impending nuptials, I thought I'd give you a sneak peek at what their married life at home away from home looks like. USA Today recently interviewed them in their Shelter Island, New York home, which Doonan aptly described as, "a fully branded home." The space is in many ways the love child of a Jonathan Adler shop and a Barneys window display (Doonan is creative director) — bursting with energy, color, creativity, and Adler's inventory. To see for yourself, check out this slideshow, and read the article for more details.

I've shown you several converted churches in the past, and they always seem to be a hit.
