A fabulous house tour with modern and vintage twists...

This is the home of Jess Loraas, a photographer and competitive show jumper, based in Calgary.

I love the clean, simple lines to everything - but it doesn't lack "prettiness" which I also like.

One day I must have a home office as efficient and beautiful as this one. Believe it or not, it's in her guest room...

SO pretty! Crisp, stark bedding keeps focus on the Paris wallpaper, which she had custom printed.


I love seeing oriental rugs with the mid-century modern furniture

*adore* I'm all about large mirrors just leaning against the wall- it creates a posh feeling while still being laid back...

sweet, sweet sleep - in a beautiful bedroom

Here in Maryland we had a blizzard that left over a foot of snow in a matter of hours. Yuck. The gloom outside makes it so hard to get up in the morning. I just want to sleep and not wake until i can look out the window and the weather be sunny and in the 70s all week. Agree?

so simple and pretty


I'm loving the deep hues being used only in the bedding - it makes the room super versatile.


Great home office - and great bedroom - but I'd be too tempted to take naps with my bed so close to my desk.
