Here’s a roundup of five things that stopped us in our tracks this week that we wanted to be sure you don’t miss.
Abigail Bell Vintage Pieces Get an Editorial Treatment on InstagramBack when we dug intomillennial vintage dealers, we became enamored with @abigailbellvintage and her dreamy, whimsical, eco-conscious finds. Now, ABV and a team of creative women brought together through the power of social media have put together an editorial collaboration that blends decor, interiors, food, and fashion. Included: NYC-based women-founded brands likePRISCAVeraandNomia, who are among the designers featured in the shoot, as well as vintage from the stylist's own archive. The project will exist where it began: on Instagram.instagram.com
CB2 Teams Up WithGQThe new collection takes inspiration from iconic architecture from the '30s, '70s, and '80s by way of midcentury-modern furniture and accessories. Think metal, glass, leather, and marble, from statement-making couches to barstools and bathroom accoutrements. GQ’s creative director at large, Jim Moore, was all about having the items go together in an unmatched way—like a good, chic wardrobe. (P.S. CB2, you do know that we also are a Condé Nast brand that could maybe design some, I don't know, furniture and home decor...?)cb2.com
Transport Yourself to a Disco Era in NashvilleIn 2014, Lyon Porter and Jersey Banks opened the Urban Cowboy Brooklyn—a hip Williamsburg B&B in a townhouse and backyard cabin. The team's newest creation, the Dive Motel & Swim Club, which opened this month in Tennessee, consists of a dive bar, motel, and pool designed with layering textures of vintage '70s wallpaper, wood paneling, and lots of handpicked objects to create a new twist on Lyon's signature design aesthetic.

Innovative Design Meets Cat CareIn a collaboration that is part heartwarming and part creative, Architects for Animals' “Giving Shelter” exhibit returns to the Herman Miller Showroom in Culver City on September 5. The innovative design event is a fund-raiser for the L.A.-based nonprofit FixNation, which provides free spay/neuter services, basic medical care, and other programs for homeless cats, and invites top L.A. architecture firms to design functional outdoor dwellings for cats—bonus points for creativity. Also on display: food bowls decorated by well-known actors, musicians, authors, and other celebrities. Uh, we gotta see this.architectsforanimals.com
