Sparkle and shimmer versus glassy and bright

I don't normally like sparkly chandeliers, but this one at Roux Louisiana Kitchen, a New Orleans style restaurant where Alfie and I dined on my birthday, looks gorgeous in its surroundings. What I might see as tacky in any other setting looks luxurious and decadent amidst the red walls, velvet curtains and beads draped across chairs and gilded frames. It just goes to show you two things:

1) Always keep an open mind.

2) I'm no interior decorator.
