About the Item
For those who desire to expand their amorous repertoire and a lush visual complement to the groundbreaking Boudoir Bible.
A celebrated pioneer in the field of sexology and erotic design, Vernon unlocks the secrets of the sensual realm, taking us on a visual journey to a sexual paradise. This enlightening, luxurious tome features Vernon’s renowned “jewel-tools”—artisanal erotic jewelry and instruments of ecstasy of her own design coveted by collectors around the world—alongside extensive advice on their use to reach new levels of pleasure.
The mysteries of the tantalizing ascent to paradise unfold as we are invited to explore empowerment through the sleek chains and cuffs of “Sado-Chic.” “Orchestrating the Senses,” “Tickle Your Fantasies,” “Erecting the Temple,” and “Role Play” heighten anticipation within the boudoir. “Intimate Bonds” and “Scepters of Desire” illuminate pushing limits with refined implements of desire, while “The Ceremony” teases a dreamworld of pleasure, with Vernon’s infamous Boudoir Box showing the infinite possibilities of sensual realms.
Vernon’s work has been documented by some of the top names in fashion photography and illustration, from Douglas Kirkland and Ellen von Unwerth to Nick Knight and David Downton, Jeff Burton, François Berthoud, and many others. Their riveting images beckon us to explore the world of intimacy and sensual satisfaction with creative new eyes.

Montecito Style: Paradise on California's Gold Coast
By Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
A privileged peek at the homes and gardens of the exclusive Southern California enclave, Montecito.
The seaside town of Montecito is often overshadowed by its neighbor Santa Barbara—which is generally how its residents like it. Though home and refuge to numerous celebrities, Montecito’s intentional cultivation of a low-key profile has allowed for a unique community to emerge, and with it, a multifaceted interior and garden design culture. Montecito Style: Paradise on California’s Gold Coast is the first book to present twenty houses and landscapes in an eclectic range of styles and rich architectural legacy that coalesce into a quintessential "California style."
The residences featured in this book reflect the diversity of design that has defined California living for more than a century: early standard-setters by George Washington Smith and an Andalusian-style abode by his protégé (and Santa Barbara’s first licensed female architect) Lutah Maria Riggs, Beaux-Arts mansions, converted carriage houses, nouveau palazzi, low-slung midcentury modern abodes, an iconic concrete-and-glass house from the 1970s, and even a studio apartment...
