Objets of Our Affection

2.21 LV

Louis Vuitton’s unique traveling furniture collection, Objets Nomades, has landed at its Galleria boutique. The line by the famed fashion house boasts collectible and limited-edition pieces crafted from beautiful materials with a nod to composition and balance.

Items range from the practical — a leather “belt” chair by Atelier Oi is sleek — to the whimsical, as in a jewel-toned hammock or the bulbous Bomboca sofa that almost looks like a cartoon. But the craftsmanship is evident throughout the entire collection. Designer Patricia Urquiola’s Palaver chair is a stunning two-piece seat made from wood and a net-like leather seat.

The Objet Nomades furniture collection is on view, with items available for purchase and special-order, through March 7. In the Galleria, 713.960.0707

With Expertise in Blondes, Extensions and More, the Janelle Alexis Team Is a Go-To Salon

YOU CAN'T LIMIT Janelle to one title – Hairdresser. Her career and business has been established and built on a strong foundation. Using her two business degrees + one more in-process, this enables Janelle and the team to deliver not only a customer-focused experience, but a foundationally solid business. There is much more than meets the eye, and in sharing a little bit about Janelle, she was not only an international hair extension educator for over 14 years, but brings extensive expertise to blondes. She rounds this out with her previously launched namesake cosmetic line, which is a perfect complement to her belief that “Beauty is our Business”.
