The third installment of my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends series is deep, dark, sultry, and mysterious, but almost completely wearable sheer black ensembles! It’s so amazing to me how some of the lightest, flowing, and airy fabrics portray such dangerous and powerful auras regardless of the silhouette, don’t you think? These looks are fun because …
While fashion’s all a buzz with Pre-Fall 2013 collections, I’ve been so preoccupied with decor and home furnishings as of late, and dressing for my new freezing and fun snowy environment, that I have barely been paying attention to anything fashion-related at all {well, other than a bit of shopping here and there ;}. But …
I love a great console table with a pair of dueling lamps at either end. It must be the symmetry of the look that is so pleasing to my visual eye. In fact, I was hoping to get the look behind our new sectional sofa on the window side, but low and behold, I don’t …
Next up in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends {refresher} series is the Major White Minimalist Moment designers from across the board sent {at least one look} down the runways last Fall.

Our new sectional sofa finally arrived over the weekend {YAY!} and we are so excited to finally have a new and comfortable couch after living with one lacking that most important element, for the last 8 years.

I’m not big on resolutions really. Mostly because I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like to wait or set dates or to plan really at all. In other, and far less flattering words, I’m very impatient. My husband is the patient planner and I’m the DO IT NOWer, which admittedly leads to certain conflicts, …
So happy to share a recent feature in Sew Magazine {sewmag.co.uk} of my easy DIY Tassel Curtains in which I turned store-bought curtain panels into unique, custom drapes for very little extra cost. * Find my original DIY Here I quickly, easily, and loosely hand-stitched the tassel trim onto the inner edges just in case …
