Her next books celebrated design, from the personal weekend spaces of style makers in Weekend Retreats to Room for Children: Stylish Spaces for Sleep and Playwhich was the first book of its kind to explore design for the junior set. Be Your Own Decorator: Taking Cues and Confidence from Today’s Leading Designers (Rizzoli) followed, inspiring people to take design into their own hands. Her 2013 debut of C.Z. Guest: American Style Icon, (Rizzoli) was the first pictorial book on the iconic style of C.Z. Guest. Decorate Fearlessly! Using Whimsy, Confidence and a Dash of Surprise to Create Personal Spaces, (Rizzoli, 2014) explored the power and panache rooms can have when decorated with confidence instead of rules and It’s the Little Things: Creating Big Moments In Your Home Through the Stylish Small Stuff (Rizzoli, 2016) focused on the big power of the little moments in rooms. Her latest book At Home with Dogs and Their Designers (Rizzoli, 2017) is a pictorial celebration of the beloved dogs of some of the world’s top interior designers and the stylish life they share.
