Glossy Black Favorites from Lonny

I’ve been trying to muster up the courage to paint something glossy black in my house. As I was re-reading the most recent issue of Lonny, I noticed a lot of high gloss black. I tell you, Lonny just brings it every single time. Here are the spaces I loved most from the April/May issue and they all feature plenty of black.



This is my favorite shot with the art wall, the brass sconce, the two-toned chair:


I think this is my favorite entryway ever:

How stunning is this? That Kelly Wearstler is just so good. So what were your favorite parts of the issue?

I love a good, glossy black. You reminded me I want to give the latest Lonny another, more thorough read.

I too expressed my love for glossy black things in a post the other day. And coming from a true blood Swedish girl this is a big thing!
Gorgeous images as usual.

Right there with you on the glossy black. Right now we love just about anything in a high gloss, but there’s something about it in black that just makes us swoon…

I always love how a glossy black looks, but I’m a little timid to try it out myself. The more I see it the more I’m inspired-these images knocked it out of the park!

I’ve started painting everything glossy back- interior doors are almost done and then I’m moving to the windows- just love. Agree that this issue of Lonny was right on the money and KW can do NO wrong in my books- adore.

I love back furnniture, which is why I decorated my entire bedroom suite in black furniture from room and board. The only downside is it gets sooo dusty so fast. But the beauty out weighs the dust
