Soft Surroundings

Happy Thursday, lovelies! Hope you are all enjoying the week so far. Good news, tomorrow's Friday and I couldn't be happier. It's going to be perfect here this weekend. Cool, crisp sunny days with temperatures in the 60s finally. I'm really looking forward to a true fall weekend.

Ok, enough of getting ahead of myself. It's only Thursday so I'll focus on today. And what's really striking my fancy today is this soft, muted, dusty palette of pinks, greens, greys and cream. It's so dreamy, romantic and utterly feminine.

I've always stuck to this palette for my bedroom because it's so cozy and inviting but I'm going to be doing my living room over soon and I'm starting to think about working within this palette for that space as well. Right now my living room is dark...deep burgundys, dark wood and camel. But I'm thinking this would make a really nice, refreshing change. What do you think?

Decor to Dress {Pure Romance}

I'm constantly inspired by interiors and fashion and I've been having fun lately doing some different mashups. I'm loving the romantic feel & colors of all three of these rooms and I think I've been able to find some pretty fashion to match.

Loving the the light & airy feel of this room. I can just picture lounging on that chaise with the window cracked open feeling a soft breeze instantly relax me & lull me into a blissfull afternoon nap. The breezy, flowing, romantic feel of this gown brings me a similar feeling of bliss.


Feathers & light! Love how the soft pastels break up the neutral palette of this room. And the feather pillow adds the perfect playful punch. I don't know about you but I always love to add that same amount of playfullness to my outfits.


Love the rich ornate feeling of this space. The chandelier, the draping of the table cloth...I love the balance between structure and fluidity.I get a similar feeling from the draping and luxe fabric of gown on the right paired with the corset.

Hope you're all having a wonderful Thursday. One more day till the weekend! :)

Mirror, Mirror

Happy Wednesdsay lovelies! Hope you're all having a wonderful week so far. After a few days of rain it's finally a bright and sunny day today and I couldn't be happier.

I just want to open the windows and bring all the sunshine and light into my apartment. And I'm really loving the idea of clusters of mirrors to brightned and open up the space.

Also I wanted to thank all of you who entered the Mario Badescu Skincare giveaway. The contest ended last night and I'll be back later on today to announce the winner. Until then enjoy the day! xoxo

White Out

In anticipation of a yet another forecasted blizzard tomorrow (yeah let's see if this one really happens...) I've been dreaming of this comfy cozy and warm white washed room. I'd love to spend tomorrow snuggled in one of the sheepskin blankies in front of the fireplace. It would be a perfect mid-week escape.
