Sixx design...... How do they do it?


Last night I watched 9 by Design and I think my mouth was open the entire time. I can't understand how Courtney Novogratz can be pregnant, renevate a massive townhouse and have 6 babies at home and most importantly be so damb cute and cool while doing it! She is my IDOL! I love how Courtney said that she prefers hanging with her kids - If I had 7 kids I would be running for the hills. Her kids are amazingly well behaved and of course all gorgeous! On top of all this the decor happens to be the most creative family friendly design I have ever laid eyes on. I am totally hooked! To check out the show click here. To check outCourtney and Robert Navogratz's genious portfolio click here. Robert and Cortney have a new book written with Elizabeth Novogratz titled ‘Downtown Chic’ published by Rizzoli $45.00)

  1. I love her too! I think what I love about them the most is that they don't try for perfect family life, perfect design, perfect anything. I love, love, love that they say their only design rule is that "there are no rules." I think this is why they are so successful.

  2. Maybe she has one nanny per child, hidden away behind the cameras? I have three (kids, not nannies!), and when they were small I was lucky to manage a shower before 4pm, so how she does it is beyond me! Love the blog, just found you and now following. K xx

  3. Hi! I found a picture on your blog that I want to use for my blog but I can't find the photo credit. It's of Audrey Hepburn next to her telephone on your post about celebs at home. Who should I give credit to? Also, do you work for Glamour?

  4. hi suze! i too watched them for the first time today and spent the morning researching their designs/bios on the internet and wondering "HOW DO THEY DO IT?!??? They must have an incredible amount of cash/help. I spent the last weeking trying to figure out my patio furniture and guess what... NOTHING happened...so i just wonder how they do it. Maybe constant collecting and having a storage warehouse helps.

  5. I love all your comments! Dancing Branflack I do work for Glamour. As far as the photo credit if I didn't credit the source you should probably just google Audrey in the kitchen and it will pop up. No need to mention me. Thank you so much for keeping in touch . suze
