Shalena in the News

In the November issue of Parents, we took a look at raising happy, confident girls—but it looks like The Real talk show cohost Tamera Mowry-Housley has made that a priority for her baby girl from the get-go.

The moment little Ariah Talea Housley arrived home earlier this year, she was greeted by a room exuding “Power in Pink”—what mommy and designer, Shalena Smith, came to call the official theme.

To give her Napa Valley, Calif., nursery an intimate feel, PEOPLE blogger Tamera Mowry-Housley and husband Adam Housley enlisted celebrity designer Shalena Smith.

And the decorator to the stars didn’t disappoint.

Smith expertly blended the couple’s personal items with a vintage, Americana style to create a chic kids room the new family will enjoy forever.

Babies can’t sit at a table and sip tea, but they do grow into toddlers who can. Sweet little table and chair sets make a mini and cute addition to any nursery.

Carey’s celeb friends gifted her with a darling table and chair set from the owner of GaGa Designs, Shalena Smith. While the set in Carey’s nursery isn’t listed on the website — possibly because it was a custom gift — similar GaGa table and chair sets cost between $160 and $200.

People.com gave us a peek into Tamera Mowry-Housley’s baby boy’s nursery in Napa Valley, but we’re here with the whole room design.

Celebrity Nursery Interior Designer Shalena Smith kindly answered some of our questions about her design.

It looks as though Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have finally decided which outfit the twins will wear first for their very exclusive photoshoot.

For weeks prior to the birth of the babies, Moroccan Scott and Monroe Carey, Mariah held a contest for fans to choose the twins’ very first outfit. And this Thursday (May 5), Celebrity Nursery Designer Shalena Smith posted sneak peeks via twitter of the twins’ photoshoot.

The Favorite Outfit Contest for Dem Babies (now known as Moroccan and Monroe) is coming to an end! Here are all the outfits that were presented by Shalena Smith from Gaga Designs and sent in by fans and companies around the country!

Working with Shalena Smith of Ga Ga Designs, Laurent Thomas’ friends organized the shower, using Smith’s Baby Registry Concierge Service to choose the perfect gifts for baby Luc.

Smith — an interior designer who has completed rooms for Heidi Klum, P. Diddy and Pete and Bridgette Wilson-Sampras — also designed the nurseries for the Thomas children.

“Shalena put together a royal room for our king,” Laurent Thomas explains.
