Polka Dots…

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

Polka dots get grown up in interiors and fashion… I’m LOVING this LucaLuca dress so much it inspired me to find other images in which spots look less childish and more chic.

A pretty use in a table setting….

LOVE this scheme…

Denim and black and white dots is such an awesome combo I wear all the time…

My favorite Brunschwig & Fils fabric, Les Touches, is one I am determined to use in my own home soon!

A Scandanavian look…

Easy, breezy dots…

Pillows from Furbish (mix with florals for an AWESOME look)…

SJP approves, which means I do too.

My studio mate Jessica has some RAD prints for sale in her Etsy shop that I think make great affordable gifts. Especially her new Zodiac series- get a pair for a couple, like Andrew and I’s signs below. Guess who’s sign is which? Scary how obvious it is? :) Actually mine should say “Anxious, obsessive and klutzy”. Check your sign here!

GET 20% OFF UNTIL DEC.20 WITH THE CODE “CYBERDINO”!

Love this little messages, especially the “ILY” one, which reminds me of boarding school. We used to always say that to each other!

And the customizable RAWR prints which always delight! :)

Mad for Plaid.

Monday, November 14th, 2011

There is something just so comfy, cozy and comforting about plaid. It’s been embraced by preppies, hipster and country folk alike- I can’t think of another pattern that appeals to so many! Of course, in the fall plaid is particularly charming and embracing- it’s wooly warmth making you think of picking apples and cuddling by a fire. In rooms it can be used in so many ways (big and small)- here’s an homage to plaid….

This old school room makes me want to curl up with a good book and some tea…
