I have a special affinity for fashion designer Betsey Johnson. The first time I saw her cartwheel down a runway, I thought, “I want her job.” Because  any job that made a person flip at the end of must be a heck of a career. Plus she had rainbow hair and as a kid that meant a lot. I didn’t know at the time that Betsey has the same enthusiasm and spark for interior design as she does fashion. Today, I wanted to share her two colorful homes.

Here are some images of her fun and very pink NYC home:

I love this picture. Its part of the reason I love Platner lounge chairs.

I can’t pick which room I love more. yes it’s very pink, but her color choices, layers of textures and modern touches amaze me.

And here’s some images of her Home in Mexico, Betseyville.  Also, Betsey Johnson rents this home to interested vacationer.  Hello, I’m interested!

here’s her lovely kitchen.

This room “Big Lime” is Betsey’s Room.

I admire Betsey Johnson’s zeal and zest and I always get the feeling that she really has fun with life.Which is why I appreciate that more than I ever could growing up. And yes she’s still my favorite fashion designer. As CoCo Chanel once said,  “An interior is the natural projection of the soul.” Betsey’s homes are over the top, but she stays true to herself. That’s the best interior design lesson.
