A Treasure Chest

Coffee table time, and this one's a doozy. While I adore the dainty mirrored top numbers favored by chic Parisians and their emulators the world over, I realize that my reality is not one of said Parisians (berets, etc etc). My reality includes three men who put their feet up on anything within reach and occasional visits from a rather rambunctious Frenchie with a fear of reflective surfaces. While a vintage Goyard trunk would be just lovely, so is being able to pay the cable bill (DVR is my life) - so off to my trusty Crate & Barrel where their Taka Trunk fits the bill perfectly. It's nearly indestructible walnut and still provides the steamer trunk look. Bonus - it has a ton of storage (which New Yorkers will never have enough of) and even a secret compartment. Did I mention the in trunk bar? Genius.
