Home Sweet Home

Evenin' Pumpkins! Many exciting things happening over here in the otherwise boring CT. On Friday, I made the big move out of Mama Dee's Litchfield nest to my very first apartment! Of course the adjustment will be no great feat since I'm still living with big bro Timmy and I've only jumped about 30 minutes away, but I'm feeling like a grown up already.

Now, do trust, I've been all over the web (especially here and here and here) looking for inspiration to help jazz up my new digs. Unfortunately, I find myself being terribly conservative. I already purchased a white sofa, here. Wait, did I mention I'm living with big mess Timmy? Bad choice lil' sis.

{le creuset, le mieux miellure!} 

Then I have another piece in gray and a little cream to hang off the windows. So I guess I'm off to accessorize with color. Reds? Blues? Greens? Tell me designers, what do you think?!

{Tea Time}

I'm tap-typing away to you on a bare naked desk with a spare dining room chair and absolutely no flowers or photos or glimmer of pretty dainty daydreams. I hope to fix that with the color issue pronto!

Well friends, I'm off to wrap up in a new throw blanket because it's fuhreeezing up in here. Not to worry, I'm loving every bit of it. That heating bill? It's all mine.


If it crosses your mind, please feel free to toss me some ideas or photos for design-spiration. My place could really use some of your love!

Back to the Beauty

Far too many suns and stars and inspiring photos have surpassed since last I blogged. I've missed you, dearies and I'm thrilled to be back. I've been handed some life lessons this year and at the end of the day, when my world slows down and my stomach stops churning, I realize that taking time off is best.

Well, cyber-vacation is over for now and I have lots of fun in store. It's time to slip on your best pair of Choos, throw down your locks, and find the nearest Vespa. We are going for a ride to discover design, fit into fashion, and find bliss in a dreamland of beauty.

Friends forever, right? Right. So stick around for lots of smiles, intimate shopping dates and cross my heart, some killer leopard print.
