Victoria in France


Some blogs I read for their sheer eye candy factor, others I read for the writing. I read Tongue in Cheek for both. Corey's pictures are beautiful, and her stories are wonderful. Her blog is one of my favorites, so you can imagine my excitement yesterday when I saw her house in Victoria magazine. At first I didn't realize it was her house--I flipped through the pages without reading the text but thought the house reminded me of Corey's blog. We were about to eat dinner so I put the magazine down, but I was looking forward to getting back to it. Then this morning I read on Corey's blog that her house was featured in the most recent issue of Victoria, and I immediately knew that the house I had ooo'd and ahhh'd over the night before was hers. I ran back to the magazine to read what it said and was so excited for her. She even took the pictures for the article! Victoria just recently came back into print after vanishing for a few years. I happen to prefer the Victoria of the early 2000s to the ones in the 90s, but this issue reminds me of the Victoria I loved--warm, romantic, natural looking interiors, and, of course, anything French thrown into the mix never hurt a good issue of Victoria. Congratulations, Corey! (Click on the pictures to see them larger.)
