Kurzbeschreibung
Welcome to Rachel Ashwell's world: as beautiful as it is comfortable, as inspiring and spontaneous as it is practical and personal. In this book, Rachel shares her inspirations and her humour, celebrates the charm of the old and battered, and demonstrates time and again how interiors touched with Rachel's magic transcend fashionable trends, extending a calming, personal welcome to all. In this new book, Rachel takes us to homes in the US - from a shabby shack on Malibu's oceanfront to a ranch on the wide, open spaces of Texas and to the wooded hills of the Catskills - and in the UK - from a houseboat and a city townhouse to a centuries-old manor house deep in the country, and Rachel's own London apartment. All the houses, regardless of their size or location, embody Rachel's ethos and share the same qualities: a respect for beautiful objects from the past, an extravagant sense of comfort, an eye for the unexpected and that signature touch of bling. All are inviting, artistic, soulful, inspired and inspiring, beautiful, gentle, considered and, in their own way, perfectly imperfect.

Worth Waiting For
6. Oktober 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I have been waiting (not so patiently) for Rachel's newest (and 7th book) and was thrilled to find it arrive on my doorstep today. The book is very pretty and filled with many pastel-hued, romantic photos that have come to symbolize "Shabby Chic". While I do agree with other reviewers that the book occasionally veers a bit off track (I could live without the brown leather couches, twiggy furniture, and what is it with that room with the horrible stripes in those horrid 70's colors?), I still feel it is essentially a very lovely book. I fear that Rachel feels the pressure to constantly change up her look a bit and offer something new. I don't really think she does. Personally, I know I will always love her pastel floral fabrics, vintage china and white slip-covered furniture the most. I don't need anything new or different. I don't need (or really want) her to be just like other, perhaps more ordinary, designers. Rachel's original vision was always perfect in my eyes and I hope she doesn't feel that her design style must "evolve" in order to be successful. That is why my favorite parts of the book are the one's showcasing Rachel's own homes, her new B&B (The Prairie), her beautiful office space, and Sharon Osborne's home - they are all the most true to her original design aesthetic. For on these pages, there are enough tulle prom dresses, gilt mirrors, faded florals and millinery flowers to please any Shabby Chic devotee!

Shabby Chic Meets Bohemian Gypsy
28. September 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I have been a fan of Rachel Ashwell and her shabby chic look for years. I own every book she has authored. This book is a huge disappointment in that she has veered even further away from her original look. Her new look is very confusing as if she wants to accomodate every other look out there, wrap it all up together and present it to us with a "tah-dah"!
A more appropriate title for her new look could be labeled "Bohemian Gypsy meets Wandering Peasant". I am so sorry. I wanted to love this book. I eagerly looked forward to its release. I love the front cover, but unfortunately the cover is much prettier than what's inside, with a few exceptions.
I did truly drool over the pictures of Sharon Osbourne's home. Maybe Sharon should put out the next decorating book instead? Sorry, Rachel. I still love you!

Rachel's Done it Again
5. Oktober 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I LOVED Rachel's newest book!!!!!! I just received it on Monday and already, I have read it from cover to cover! I admire her way of constantly reinventing herself while still staying true to her foundation of beauty/comfort/and function. I respect Rachel's ability to find gratitude in life's most simple moments and to turn what already exists into thoughtful artwork. It was such a treat to see how the Shabby Chic style can find a place into the homes of so many different types of people all around the world. Really really enjoyed this book!
