Fashion Item of the Week

Let's "Ring" in the Holidays! I found these adorable bow rings from modcloth.com. I was surprised at how many options they had and how well they created each with a distinct personality. I love them all and hope you do too!

Simple and Cozy

This is for all those inspired by simple design with a splash of bold color! I love white, it is a versatile color that  has so many personalities. White can be sophisticated, edgy and calming. This room is a quiet and calming space with splashes of green. You can choose your favorite color to pair with this design, I have picked out a couple other options for those opposed to green.

I'm going to assume the head and foot board were custom made for this picture. For those that are not so crafty I found a fabulous bed from Ballard Designs. It has a great cottage chic feel!

Here are a couple of white coverlets that each have their own unique texture.

I found a great green and blue rug as well as a blue and pink rug. The pink theme would look cute in a little girls room.

If you already have a great side table I recommend painting it the color you like, or check out your local flea markets for a unique nightstand. If not, here are a couple options. Remember, you can always switch out the knobs to add a little character!

Accessories can make or break a room. I found a simple white lamp and these great white frames to hang above the bed. Try and keep the decor simple and light adding splashes of color with the decorative pillows. I would pair each pillow with a soft lime or soft pink, depending on your scheme.

Christmas Dining

The holidays are upon us and it's time to pull out the decorations! I think every dining table should be properly decorated through out the entire year. Here is a beautiful Christmas decorated dining table that is easy to achieve. First pick out any white table linens that you like. If you want to be more exact, pick some out that have texture in them. I've located all the other items!

Since everyone likes different things, I chose three different blue drinking glasses. The first has a variety of glass types, the second has texture added to the glass and the third is a one style glass. I also added some red and green glasses incase you wanted to do this look in a differnet color scheme!

This Dillards napkin ring is similar to our inspiration, although I do believe the ones in our inspiration picture are handmade. I would also check out the silver seasonal napkin rings!

Make a Stunning Entrance

Your entry way can set the standards for your entire house. It's the first impression your visitors get and can set the tone for their arrival. I love the statement made with this entry. It is bold and yet settling at the same time. This particular entrance was done on a large scale and probably involved a custom made mirror. I have provided a few options on a much smaller scale that should provide the same welcoming feeling.

Here are the options I chose for this look. I included a cute white floor mirror with a glossy white accent table, similar to the ones shown in the picture, but also added an option with a silver mirrored finish. These selections again are on a smaller scale, I always suggest looking at your local T.J. Maxx or Home Goods store for unique pieces.

Lighting and accessories: I chose the gold lamp for the white color scheme and the crystal lamp for the mirrored option. I found a lantern chandelier similar to the one from the original image. There are many options for lanterns. You are sure to find one you love! There are many zebra print benches out there, but this one seems to be a perfect fit for the size of our accent tables.

Day to Night

This outfit is great because it can be worn during office hours and it transforms well into an evening outfit. If I wore this to work or on a Saturday afternoon I would wear this with flats, but for an evening look I would add a little more jewlery and a nice heel.

I chose a silk button up blouse from Victoria Secret to make the outfit a little bit more dressy. I had a problem finding a "good" striped cardigan so I opted for this solid maroon. Add some gold accessories and you have the perfect combo!

Functional yet Charming

I love finding everyday items with a little bit of character. I found these items by Pacific Merchants on Fab.com. If you haven't checked out Fab.com please do, you can find unique items for half the price!
I found this tea set in orange, yellow, white and black. I would use it more for decoration, but serves a purpose for the tea lover! I also found this tea cannister, available in most colors, that has a vintage vibe. It would add a little color to your counter! They had a variety of mixing bowls, but I really liked the white one. It reminds me of something my grandmother would have.
