Seriously amazing small kitchens
After a lovely relaxing weekend............. {here I am in the office wishing I could go back to that lounge chair} what's with mondays right?
Anyway, now is the turn of some tiny kitchens, lets face it. Most of us actually have small kitchens, especially if you live in a big city in an apartment.
And if you're renting, things complicate even more... Rental decorating can seem like mission impossible but it's actually not, these small places are fabulous, not a drop of bad style. Ch-ch-check 'em.

1.- Big City apartment - take advantage of light/views and bright whites to make it seem bigger. Oh, and keep it simple for Christ's sake! no space for clutter and stuff.
2.- Cute & functional country style. I love small islands like that, that you can move around if you need more space, they are so helpful and provide a ton of extra much needed counter space.
3.- Use every square inch!! don't be afraid to use all the space you've got. ALL of it. See here, they even have extra chairs folded and hung by the fridge!!! Light wood is a YES in small spaces.
4.- Use interesting textures and good lighting and no-one will notice the lack of space. Glossy subway tiles, exposed brick, deep rich wood and leather will always translate into a sophisticated space. {love the shelves}
5.- Minimal Dream.... many of us love simplicity, after all, they say simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication... Storage solutions in this tiny space are so genius, they provide all the counter space you will need to cook a serious meal ;)
I loved number 3 and 5. What bout you?

Sophisticated Belle
Inspired by a ladylike day outfit, this Color Palette features sober grays, delicious neutrals and then dances its way into a glorious mint green I just wanna put inside my mouth.
Perfect for a cozy bedroom with a touch of understated glamour. Where would you use this palette?

Fave Vignettes
For the most part, my favorite Vignettes involve one or more of the following:
Mirrors - Books - Trays - Art - Unexpected anything
We actually have a wooden spider!!! now I can see that'd be kinda cool :D
I am in love with this last one.
What's your take on Vignettes?

One more time, shall we?
Yeah, so Deep Navy is HUGE this season. Which I totally predicted a year ago and now I wont get any credit for that. Whatevers....
Anyway, I found this first image on Rue Magazine and OH-BOY... knees got weak. So I had to do yet-another-post on the glorious color.
First off - the inspiration for this post, deep, bold, sexy navy blue walls
Beach cottage style - Country Living
salvaged wood trunk is to die, and the RUGGG!! sweet baby jesus, the rug...!!!
Nothing classier than white and blue stripes pattern. Perfect boy's room!

Nautical Luxuries accent pillow - try to deny this item is a dream come true.
If I am to do this in a room (go navy) I would NOT hesitate one bit and get this wallpaper:
I never tire of this color. So, If you have a navy blue room in your house please, i am begging you, share?

2.- Perfection. Like visiting your fave coffee shop!!
3.- Cottage style has never been my thing, but this little nook is making my knees weak!!!
4.- Ahhhhhhh........... the french bistro style........... for a romantic date in the kitchen.

For the love of all things whimsical...
I had not paid much attention to birdcages before, they are big in the decorating world but they never really caught my attention. But the other day I went to this event where they had them hanging from the trees... Old, rusty, birdcages with a bunch of little candles inside... and OH BOY did I convert!, I instantly became a fan.
Here are some ways to hang them and pretty-them-up I found for you luvs. Great, easy DIY!!
with flowers and fairy lights......
Hang them together for a Chandelier effect.. you'd better add candles.
The key: Use an assortment of sizes, colors and types
Make a lamp with it!-.... this one is genius, with a chrystal chandelier inside (this home-owner evidently LOVES chandeliers, look at the fab illustrations on the wall!!!)
do you luv'em?

Random rooms to die for!
Oh yeah--- it's that time of the month. These are the rooms that made the cut ;)
Open cabinets dream! {luvin the stainless steel and the green&yellow touches}
I don't normally adore green for decorating, my boyfriend mentioned it the other day for the dining room and I was like "say whaat?" but you know, I came across this image (at Decorology) and I totally freaked my freak. I LOVE IT!!!! what say YOU?

Black Thoughts
Lately I have been toying with the idea of painting my bedroom black, well, the one accent wall actually. The fabulousness of black accent walls is undeniable, but it sure takes a tremendous amount of courage, not to mention expertise to pull it of. I determined to find some inspiration and obviously found some all-kinds-of-awesome rooms. Thoughts? Should I do it?

On Treasures.....
When looking at these gorgeous images on The Coveteur, inside the home and style of the awesome Yigal Azrouel, where evidently he keeps some seriously awesome, not to mention valuable objects! I got to thinking about treasures.
We all have them right? Truly unique and personal items with sentimental or monetary value {or both} so dear to us that we would never sell them, lose theem or give them away... and rightfully so! they remind us of lovers, friends & family, special moments and special people. At one point they surely become important design elements as they bring something special to the table, they tell people who you are. I love that.
In the case of Azrouel's collection, here are my three favorite pieces :)
