Start Your Weekend With GIVEAWAY TIME AGAIN {With Nine-By-Design Style!}

So have YOU watched the latest large-family themed reality show,

Nine By Design on Bravo?

On ultra hip NYC couple + 7 kids + a booming urban design/reno biz =

HIT REALITY TV SHOW.

Just starting with the parents - Robert & Cortney Novagratz...

youth and model-looks plus impeccable fashion sense meets even keener interior and architectural design sense 

combining to create a crazy-successful real estate development biz not just in the

chic-est areas of NYC, but worldwide.

Together they've been transforming derelict buildings/spaces into jaw-dropping

new living quarters which they flip and move on.

Can I name drop for a moment?  

Yes... indulge me...

:)

You may remember last year The Beautiful Life was commissioned 

by SIXX DESIGN 

to make a custom versions of our

Mathematicus numbers pillows - 

they requested their pillows be embroidered with a room number for each of the guest rooms in their fabulous,

newly renovated boutique hotel on the Jersey shore -- 

BUNGALOW 

-- featured as one of

Elle Decor's top 10 Chic Hotels.  

We blogged about it HERE

What a fun project that was!!

It was about the time we dealt with Sixx Design last year (April) that they were expecting their

first book to be unveiled - aptly named Downtown Chic.

They mentioned it to me and I got on the pre-order list with Amazon

so that as soon as it was out, I got one!

{The book is now sold out on Amazon!}

The book is full of practical tips for redoing your space, but also gives you a bit of a peek

into the lives of this uber-hip family and their homes.

WHICH BRINGS ME TO MY GIVEAWAY!

How would you like to win a copy of this book??

What better timing, with their new show in full swing and their names as hot as ever in the media....

design duo (and their 7 kiddos).
