Wish you all a Happy Diwali (and a festive home wishlist of the most unabashedly luxurious sort!)

Hey folks, Season's Greetings to everyone- it is the 'festival of lights' season.
Instead of doing the regular clothes and shoes wishlist, we thought it might be fun to do a luxe lifestyle wishlist. So here are some lovely things rounded up from some of the best  luxury shopping spots.

We haven't mentioned the prices here, but we have included links so you can go take a look for yourselves.
We hope you enjoy our picks.

Do let us know in the comments section below, what stuff you are planning to pep up your crib!
If you are aware of any really, really, good lifestyle stores online, or even if you know of a fabulous vintage furniture and curios shop share those details with us- we love hidden gems.

And finally-

Happy Diwali & a Happy New Year!

PS- In the spirit of festivity we have considered some of the more ornate, opulent,and vintage or vintage-looking things-- not the minimalist/modern styles!


Classic living room Rialto

What an elegant living room sofa set, we are just happy to note that makers of such fine furniture are still around!Fit for a royal home.


FINE AND IMPORTANT silk HERIZ ARMORIAL CARPET, Persia

Oh, but you can't just whip out your credit card and buy carpets like these...
You have to first read up and then trace the current owners of precious antique carpets, and as soon as they appear for an auction - you spring on them. (Then you must outbid other fanatical collectors)




JEZEBEL Folding Screen

Add drama to any corner with this beautiful folding screen.
The antique mirror finish will work beautifully with a variety of decor styles.


Fendi Casa Diamante Bed

Gorgeous, posh and desirable! 
This is a slightly modern piece that nevertheless offers great opulence and can blend well with vintage pieces.
Make sure your monogrammed silk pyjamas live up to the bed ;-)



Antique French Giltwood and Marble Console Table

An exquisite antique piece, this console will add a touch of class to your little place.
Quelle joie...



Rare Roman Baroque Carved and Giltwood Mirror, with a Grotesque Head

Of course, everyone needs a gilded mirror!
This one might be too foggy to look in, but it's stunning to look at.



Antique Pair Venetian 7 Light Table Top Chandeliers Murano

Could there be a better way to light up your home than with this stunning pair of table top chandeliers?
Highly unlikely...they are in exquisite condition too.



Vetro Gold Glassware

Stunning handmade Italian glassware, the best wines deserve the best glasses!



Versace 5 Piece Place Setting (5 pps) | Butterfly Garden

Possibly one of the most beautiful porcelain sets we have ever seen!
It may trigger stark envy...




ZÉNITH NOIR CHANDELIER 24 LIGHTS

This wonderful chandelier with dark crystals evokes old world charm; yet it doesn't look too old fashioned and decadent...how curious.
We realize a classic brass and crystal chandelier would have gone better with the rest of our picks, but our taste is eclectic, and we have a feeling this piece will awe in any setting.




Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin Luxury Candle

It's the little things that matter...
Nothing evokes memories like smells, make sure your home smells like heaven with this affordable luxury candle that also makes for the most perfect gift.





This is by no means an end of our list of desires, these are but a few of the many things we covet.
We haven't even started on wardrobes, art, kitchens and home electronics!

Luxury and beauty will always have the power to attract and motivate us to acquire the best things;
but, Diwali is not just about buying new things mindlessly.
It is about joy and new beginnings...It is about appreciating "wealth & luxury" of every kind.
The best things can't always be purchased.

A row of twinkling mud lamps, a box of sweets, a few sparkly crackers and some family time might be all you need to make you feel pretty happy!
