Yesterday and today were very busy work days. I'm working on the installation of furnishings in a client's home...it's so rewarding and exciting to see a home come together! With that said, I started my day yesterday at Lillian August grabbing some stuff for this particular client's home. Lillian August is a mega interior furnishings venue with it's flagship store located in Norwalk, Connecticut. To walk into Lillian August is to enter a magical world! Their selection of furniture, lamps, mirrors, accessories, custom pieces, carpeting, outdoor decor are varied and impressive! They also have in-house interior designers for the homeowner working on his or her own. And, for interior designers they have a trade program. This store has become one of my favorite sources for endless possibilities under one roof. Here are some photos I took yesterday to showcase a little sampling of Lillian August's offerings.
Have you been to Lillian August? If so, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
If not, and you'll be in the area I strongly suggest stopping by for some serious eye candy!

The first 2 photos are amazing!
I would love to visit this shop. I live in California and don't think that will be happening, but what a great resource for you!
Thanks for the online link... I'm off to check it out. Good Luck on your installation. Please post photos when it's completed.

Oh la la~~ How beautiful and top quality! It reminds me of Bliss Linens, my favorite shop near me special, like this one!

The top picture is gorgeous - that sofa with the washed blue and antique white is very French provincial and the lampshades and bases are beautiful. The last picture - are they rugs/carpets because they are beautiful.....can you send some over here?
Lovely post!
Thanks for sharing....that wall of pillows....I am in heaven!
Oh-my-heavens. I would need to carry a sack lunch and be prepared to stay. I will check out the link straight away.
I. MUST. SHOP. THERE.
I'm glad everyone has enjoyed! If any of you plan a trip...let me know...I might meet you there!
Tina, I almost wrote in the post that packing a lunch is necessary...you won't be in and out. They also have free cookies and Starbuck's which makes the shopping experience a touch sweeter!
This place seems terrific! I wish it was closer! Filing away for the next time I'm working on the East Coast! Marija
I live by the store in farmington/west hartford and I love it. Did you know they just started a blog? You should check it out!
Hi Fran,
Yes, I knew that they just started a blog. When I was there on Monday I spoke with the president/CEO and he filled me in...how far in Farmington from Norwalk? Don't you just smile walking into the store?
Love your blog! I have passed signs for this store when I drive my son back to school in Boston. I never knew what it was. I'll have to leave extra time to check it out next trip.
I just found your blog- it's great! The light fixture in the first photo is gorgeous. I'm looking for one for our entry and it would be perfect. I just noticed it was in today's Cote de Texas post too!

I worked in the Greenwich store of Lillian August for five years. Great experience, learned an amazing number of great venders and products.
Beautiful store! I have to put that on my list to visit when I drive from Boston to NYC to visit family! Thanks for sharing~ Lucky you that you can actually buy things there for your clients!
