Elle Decoration South African style
I LOVE shelter magazines, and I realized last night that we've never plugged Elle Decoration SA's blog before. I adore Elle Decoration (British and French versions) and would love to get my hands on a copy of a South African version. They showcase fabulous eclectic homes and I found the following photos of such homes on their blog, which, what do you know, is also fabulous (and co-written by Heather Moore of Skinny Laminx).

Hi, do you happen to know the manufacturer on the woven floor lamp and pendant? At least, I assume they're from the same manufacturer since they appear so similar.
Thanks!

it seems that Elle deco is good in all versions, I love the Argentinean one but it just has 3 o 4 issues per year.South African edition luckily we can see in that blog.
Yum!
OOH there's that same mirror'ed (?) piece! I noticed it months ago in a room that was photographed by Jen Fong. Any idea where to find it??
Thanks for the always amazing posts!

how do y'all do it?? you constantly feel my computer w/ inspiration...thanks so much.
So nice to see our blog on your fabulous site - thanks a lot for the substantial mention!
I can try to answer a couple of your readers' questions while I'm here:
The woven lamp is from a store in Cape Town called LIM (lim.co.za), and I believe the mirrored piece on the wall is by Cape Town designer, Vivienne Barrett.
Thanks again,
