Lar Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Mind blowing, C&B. Your place looks like it's staright out of a classic-era Vice episode!All of your pics are fantastic! I can almost imagine Crockett walking through your place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 It's super cool. When I walk down the stairs wearing a blazer as seen in an episode of MIAMI VICE and wearing a pastel henley, raybans, rolex etc. and sit down in my living room. I feel like I'm living the part man. It's an unusually strange/surreal feeling. Like somehow I've just entered Crockett's body, and now I'm him. Nearly everything I have is supposed to look like MIAMI VICE.White walls, pastel vases, Modern furniture, exotic tropical plants, water view outside my windows, exotic italian convertible parked outside....I feel like I just stepped into a MIAMI VICE episode!

I'd pay to get this feeling, like I'm living an episode, not just watching it. I've never experienced this before, I once had a little treasured moment in D.C., outside the Hoover building, like I had just finished working on an x-file, but that was it.Here's my idea: you sit in your living room, I walk down the stairs shouting "Who is this guy?"(I can also say the line with an American accent ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's act out the scene from EVAN!"I don't have a problem. ...you have a problem? Maybe it's your problem."Today, I'm dressed like Crockett from SMUGGLER'S BLUES!I just bought a blazer that I have been wanting for a while. I've been trying to find a blazer like crockett's solid blue blazer from that episode. ANDREW FEZZA makes one, but I couldn't find it. But I did finally find a very well made, 100% linen, half lined, two patch pocket, two button navy blue blazer which oddly enough I'm wearing as I type this, and listening to one of DADRIAN WILLSON's music downloads.I was thrilled to get this, finally. (It's not the exact same maker as was used in the show, but it's designed just like it.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOPER&BURNETT Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Yes. A blazer like that. Mine's a little darker blue, but essentially, the same thing. I've wanted one for quite some time! It's VERY comfortable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I'm still looking for more Tropical plants for my place locally. More stuff is coming I was told. It was a late season for the tropical stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandina Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Beautiful plants, let's just hope you have a green thumb or they will be gone in a second! I suggest you to change the black plastic pot because it exceeds the size of the white pot. In fact the purpose of the outer pot is to hide the inner one, which must never show.It's not stylish and you don't want a style mistake in your home do you?

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Your correct!However, I just bought it an hour before, and snapped a shot to show you. Obviously, I'm going to fix it. I just wanted to share it with you quickly. I forgot to take a shot of a Majesty palm I bought that day too. Gotta VICE it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little loud for my taste however.... Wasn't bad a 99 bucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh Prince Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Amazing C&B. I'm happy that you (or anyone) can live such a dream should one would had decided to do so, and it's just incredible what amount of authenticity you've managed to recreate.Now all you need is Don Johnson over for sunday lunch, I wonder what his reaction would be like?

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Here's a small section of my kitchen. I used natural light to light the shot.Everything at my place is clean, and no clutter. Just like the homes in MIAMI VICE were depicted.Also, the place is white, but I've added just a dash of pastel here and there. but not too much to overpower it.

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Here's my third bathroom downstairs. I'm going with an ISLAND theme. Kind of matches the place. There are more things hidden behind the door, but this is a good enough representation of what it looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
