Well, tan my leather!

How is it it's already mid-week????
I've been planning this post since Monday, but somehow life, Motherhood, and wrecked computers (all three of 'em) got in the way.  Oh well....here goes

When it comes to leather goods, I've always been a saddle color kind of gal.  Something about the natural tanning, combined with perfect hardware appeals to my luxe-but-not-too-much sensibilities.


Now, I'm dying to put together some kind of tan leather/hardware combo in my casa.  Not in a wagonwheel kind of way, either. 
See those stools?
Maybe some MCM goodness?
This one's Ebay - it got away.

Maybe just a couple of these floating around an a lot-of-white room?

Like this...

If this weren't black, it could play nice

Woah, now, horse.  What's this?  Perfection is what they are.  Hold on, lemme check.....

Damn. My taste is rich. *source

What are you obsessing over, lately?

That MCM chrome chair is pure joy. I need to stalk Ebay more often.

Ah the chair- to die...and the blue stolls...also divine. I love a little natural leather too- just a hint to ground things. Oh and I've had a similar week in computer land- one broke in half, new one got a virus, modem broke...fun never ends:)

I feel the same about "saddle" color leather. Love, love, love it. I'm currently coveting the leather butterfly chairs from CB2. Wish we had room for them.

Great post title! Isnt' it uncanny that the things we often love the most are the most expensive?

However - I love my Nate Berkus HSN ottomans and owe you big time for the post you did on that. If you hadn't, I wouldn't have found them before they sold out!

We are on the same page...I am thinking about leather as a home accessory, too. Just can't find the right "thing".
