Chandeliers!









Continuing with yesterdays post on my desire to start a chandelier collection of my own, I've collected some of the most unique chandeliers from this awesome website called Chandeliera. They sell every Chandelier and fancy lighting fixture imaginable! It's a really fun website to look at if you're into design. They even have an inspiration photo gallery.

Anyways..If you could pick one of these Chandeliers which would you choose? Where would you put it?

I love reading people's opinions so make sure to leave a comment!!

I'm off to my much awaited vacation tomorrow...stay tuned for pics!

Zebras & Glitter & Chandeliers...Oh My!









If you haven't caught onto this by now...I have a lot of loves & obsessions. Particularly when it comes to design and style. One of my all time favorite blogs, Desire to Inspire, feature the most amazing apartment. That's where these pictures came from. Every aspect of it just screams my name! Zebra print, chandeliers, hot pink, glitter, mirrors etc. etc. Let's just say I'm in love with it all. I'm especially impressed that the owner of this Brooklyn loft has 12 chandeliers hanging up around this place. This has totally reiterated my plans of starting a chandelier collection. My other favorite parts are the 2 black Kartell Ghost Chairs, the chalkboard wall, the hot pink kitchen with the Lucite stools, and the curved white leather couch. Gorgeous!!!

What's your favorite part of this awesome loft?

Prepare to Drool






Okay, Okay I know this is totally cheesy but I truly enjoy grocery shopping. Tonight when I walked out the door to head to one of my all time favorite grocery stores the sky was just gorgeous so I knew I was in for some good shopping. Sprouts Farmers Market is amazing! They sell tons of organic foods, specialty meats, fresh fruits and veggies, and my favorite...the aisles of "scoop your own" trail mix! Their trail mixes are to die for! My favorite is the Carmel Delight full of chocolate chips, dried cranberries, almonds, and delicious little chewy caramel balls. The S'mores mix is also fabulous! And how could I possibly forget the tasty cherry yogurt covered pretzels.

The Queen of List Making





I love making lists. To-Do lists, packing lists, shopping lists, wish lists, grocery lists, you name it...I'm obsessed. My purse if full of lists that I've made over the past couple of weeks. I usually end up starting a list at a completely random moment and place. Therefore I've decided a little notebook would be nice to keep in my purse to organize my crazy list making. I've rounded up some of my favorites. Which one would you go for?

1.Green on White Damask
2.Pink Moleskine
3.Thoreau Quote Journal
4.Blue Floral Damask

Battle of the Shower Curtains



This fall will be the first time in 2 years that I won't be living in a dorm room. I couldn't be more excited. Prepare yourself to hear many future posts on my room decorating! It is time to start buying things for my room and I love the look of these ruffled shower curtains. What a joy it is going to be to have my own private bathroom. No more wearing flip flops just to take a shower or setting the fire alarm off in the entire building because your shower was too long and steamy. Anyways which ruffled curtain is your fav?

A.India Rose- $110
B.India Rose- $95
C.RianRae- $96
D.Anthropologie- $118
