forget first class, i'll take coach

I stumbled across this AMAZING Manhattan home in Vogue...it belongs to Reed and Delphine Krakoff.  Reed is the president and creative director for Coach and his wife, Delphine, is an interior designer who owns her own company, Pamplemousse.  I think what amazes me most about this space is that three children under the age of 5 live here!! Goes to show you don't have to sacrifice your style once you have children.

Reed and Delphine describe themselves as collectors, truly enjoying every piece they bring into the home.  They study furniture and art, immersing themselves in the history of it all.  Considering the home is around 18,000 square feet (originally a building consisting of 12 apartments), they have plenty of space to put all the treasures they may collect during their lifetime.

Love the photo of the kids standing on the settee, and in shoes!! I bet you anything that is not a daily occurrence...but I do believe it is very possible to live with kids and have a stylish home! Janell
