ECLECTRICITY

is written by my co-worker, Crystalyn. She's fantastic and we have the exact same taste. Like oddly exact. If we were to design a home together the following would be involved, no questions asked: animal, lots of pink, hip old lady stylin', ikea, target, and glossy paint.

the blog is neat-o. she writes about things she loves. like this. Check it:

Neon! Neutral! Jealous of your bag!

apparently I wasn't the only one with this idea..

pinterest is a great place to figure out that like, 500 people had the same idea as you. Some of these ideas rock way harder than what I had originally pictured, so.. It's a great source for inspiration. if you aren't already on pinterest, you should join and pin pin pin. but you probably are. so nevermind. if you're not, ask me for an invite. I might give you one.

I am referring to the expedit bookshelves from ikea

Side by side and stacked

these might be 3 1/2 billies

also billy

tradish. gotta love tangerine

from Elle Decor... maybe not ikea. but copyable

rainbow books! Mom! national geographics would look so cool like this!

how do you have that many books?? Love that curvy top thing! also, I think this is from Little Green Notebook. which is an awesome blog.

dressing room

I would love to have a dressing room that looked like this.


1. because it would be nice to have all those clothes to fill an entire room, and 2. that would mean I could dedicate an entire room to dressing, which would also be nice.







however, this is realistically how things would work out for that ottoman.





beat it, poodle

have you ever looked at the cover of a book and squealed out loud with delight cause you literally own every damn thing on the cover? that just happened. 

heres a lil snippit..


Style is a luxury, and luxury is simply what makes you happy.
Over the years, design expert Deborah Needleman has seen all kinds of rooms, with all kinds of furnishings. Her conclusion: It’s not hard to create a relaxed, stylish, and comfortable home. Just a few well-considered items can completely change the feel of your space, and The Perfectly Imperfect Home reveals them all.

Ranging from classics such as “A Really Good Sofa” and “Pretty Table Settings” to unusual surprises like “A Bit of Quirk” and “Cozifications,” the essential elements of style are treated in witty and wonderfully useful little essays. You’ll learn what to look for, whether you are at a flea market or a fancy boutique—or just mining what you already own.

september already?

how the hell did that happen?

I would love to update on all these little projects that I have up my sleeve, and also out-of-sleeve as some are finished, but that would mean I would have to clean the house, so.. no.

I will, however, update you on these pictures that are inspiring our living room.  

 How fantastic is that mushy chair and that batman bust up top?  

 

that wallpaper intimidates me. but the pillows are all like "aww hey"

 

I'm obsessed with the way the pictures are hung.

 

 I feel sort of "eh" about this picture hanging arrangement, but I loveee the couch/lamps/coffee table/windows/light/etc.
