Leather & Chrome...

I love the combination of a beautiful caramel leather and chrome in mid century style. I recently found some chairs like the ones below on Craig's List and I am kicking myself for not getting them. They were knock offs I'm sure, but great nonetheless.



It lends a masculine feel, but a softer version...


I am beginning to turn into a chair hoarder. What is it about chairs?!

Unknown

Maybe some chairs like these will come across my path again!

Have a great weekend!

Black and Blue......

I love the combination of black and blue. In all shades of blue..... turquoise, pale aqua, soft powder blue, cobalt, and even navy.

It is graphic and classic.....

Modern but traditional....



When paired together its even better....


I have my bedroom on the mind lately. We haven't done anything to it yet and it is currently this horrible shade of tanish, peachish, yellowish paint. Or as I call it the shade of death. Needless to say it is just a depressing and NOT restful color.

I have got all my linens so far and I THINK a paint color picked out. Still searching for a rug. I might switch some I have around

More to come... hopefully sooner than later!

A Little Quirk.....

Love this bedroom! The block print, the black and white striped rug, the hit of blue......


And the fantastic portrait of an elegant woman........... in quirky glasses holding her bright pink lingerie.... Ha!

A Few Obsessions.......

A few obsessions of mine lately.....

Fabulous vase from Dwell Studio..... makes me think of gorgeous golden confetti.......


Quilted throws from West Elm. Each one unique. Would love one at the end of my bed or tucked into the cushions of my very beige and practical sofa..... ;)

Crazy gorgeous.....


Happy shopping!!!!
