1 The “Glamily” Room
What’s an immaculate aesthete to do with a dog around — or a Doritos-loving tween? Let her living room go? Hardly! Turn to hardworking-yet-fabulous fabrics paired with sexy silhouettes.

We’ve previewed dozens of high-gloss, high-power versions, all ready to help you make this year your most productive yet.
