- Hey guys, what's up?
It's Danielle from WeWoreWhat.
We are here in my New York City West Village apartment,
and I'm gonna take you on a mini home tour,
show you my favorite pieces of furniture
and where I got them.
(upbeat music)
This is the entry way to my apartment.
It's what you see in my Instagrams every morning.
It's important to me that this space felt really clean
and simple but it was also something
I would wanna show on my Instagram.
I actually just got this new console
from my friend Claude Home.
She creates all this vintage furniture,
and is really awesome.
This mirror is from Restoration Hardware,
and is this kind of French-inspired antique mirror,
and I put some of my hats here
just for a cool accent.
I actually have triple the amount of hats
that you see here and this is my selfie mirror
before I go out, so it's the most important.

We are sitting on my California King bed.
I wanted a bed that was extra long,
that's why I got the California King.
And my favorite piece in my bedroom
is this Louis Vuitton trunk.
It's from the early 1900s, it's super vintage.
It has somebody else's initials on it,
and I can't even imagine
the stories behind where it came from.
My other favorite piece is right here.
It's my Hans Wegner chair.
I saw it in a Isabel Marant store years ago,
and just had to have it.
The rug I have here is from Etsy.
It's just an old Turkish rug,
and then my side tables are burl wood side tables,
no specific designer, just something I found also on Etsy.

So right now we're in my living room.
I mean, the space is kind of all connected
because this is a New York City apartment.
One of my favorites that just came in
is this Sergio Rodriguez chair.
It's a Brazilian designer, it's really special.
I love the design.
I saw it in a store in Tribeca a long, long time ago,
and became obsessed with the designer,
and found this chair on a
resale website, actually, rather recently.
I have been through so many sofas living in New York City,
but this one is by far my favorite.
It is the most comfy, it is a Timothy Oulton sofa,
and it's in this gorgeous white linen.
If I sit on it any longer, I will not get up,
but this sofa is the best one I've ever had.
So something I've been paying closer attention to lately
are the accessories that really complete
and tie together my apartment,
and so anything like this vintage vase
that's holding my pompous grass
to this burl wood pedestal
and this really pretty ceramic planter right here.
I've been really looking for these special pieces
that I think will, you look at a coaster for example,
and my coasters happen to be these vintage marble ones
which you would never really think, oh,
I should go out and get cooler coasters
than you would normally have,
but to me these pieces kind
of make the apartment really special.
This is a marble dining table I've had
for a few years now.
I got it from a website called Kathy Kuo Home,
and I decided to pair 'em
with these vintage Marcel Breuer cane chairs
which my dad actually told me he had growing up.
So, they're really cool, they're super vintage and old,
and I love the bulk
of the cane chairs with the marble table,
and then behind me you can see I have my pride and joy,
these Allan Tannenbaum original Studio 54 photographs.
I met Alan through an Israeli designer, Nili Lotan.
Went to his apartment in Tribeca,
and picked out all of these images myself with him.
He told me the stories behind all of them,
and I just have this crazy obsession with Studio 54.
I wish I lived in the time when it existed.
I could go there, and hang out
with all these really cool people that were there.
(upbeat music)
Now we're in my kitchen
where I don't do nearly enough cooking,
but I did wanna show you guys these new stools that I got.
They're Thomas Hayes studio customized shearling stools.
I saw them in an apartment that was for show
in a new building that just opened,
and I couldn't not have them.
So I found out who made them,
and I placed a custom order myself.
