5.0 out of 5 stars An exciting book
I can't think when a new decorating book excited me as much as this one. I buy a lot of decorating books, but New Classic Style is so chic yet so helpful all at the same time. The premise, which is carried out stylishly by the photos, involves mixing classic furnishings from all eras and genres to create "personal" style. The book is so what I'm all about...

3.0 out of 5 stars Could have had better choices for decorating ideas.
I was looking for more ideas that mixed traditional with modern. This book had some pictures and some information but I felt it was lacking somehow. It also seemed to focus more on the modern sparsely accessorized style of design. If you are a minimalist this may be for you. I was hoping to see more traditional styles and more ideas in general.

I can't think when a new decorating book excited me as much as this one. I buy a lot of decorating books, but New Classic Style is so chic yet so helpful all at the same time. The premise, which is carried out stylishly by the photos, involves mixing classic furnishings from all eras and genres to create "personal" style. The book is so what I'm all about and what I see my friends doing. I've never seen a book on how to create your own mix before.

This is a great book if you are looking for new ideas for your home and you don't want to spend a fortune. Also a great book if you want to NOT do what everyone else is doing!
