What a Wonderful World (Market.)

I love shopping at World Market.  I always seem to walk out with a cart full of great finds at ridiculously low prices.   In checking out their online store lately, it seems as though their selection is on trend.  Fantastic furniture, marvelous mirrors, luxurious lamps, outstanding ottomans, ridiculous rugs and killer kitchenware.  Remember the silverware that I ordered from Neiman’s?  See anything similar below?  This bamboo flatware is truly a steal at $11.96 per set of four pieces.

Jenny From The Block.

Jennifer Lopez seems to be everywhere you turn these days, and last month’s Veranda is no exception. Let’s take a look at her gorgeous L.A. home designed by Michelle Workman.
I was actually surprised at how subdued and tranquil her home was.  A little too formal for my family’s …ahem.. lifestyle- but beautiful, nonetheless.  My girls and Bailey wouldn’t last 10 minutes in this living room.
Here comes my favorite.  I am loving the blue cabinetry in her kitchen….And that stove?  Perfection.
Chandelier love.
To be this important….
As you know, I am a color person, I feel like her dining room could use a little more punch, but I love the overall concept, and the chandelier.

Double Trouble.

Look what Momma just scored off of Craigslist… two wingback chairs- $175 for both!   These will go in our living room, and I have yet to decide what fabric to reupholster them with.  I am for sure painting the legs high-gloss black,  As you may know by now, I have a hankering for all things pink….  I would LOVE to cover them in this pink linen from Highland Court…. I can’t wait to hear what Mikie has to say about that one! 
Remember that pink chair that I fell in love with at the Design Center?  I can’t stop thinking about the possibilities!

What do you think?

Orange Crush.

Remember this bench?  Well I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of this Duralee Orange fabric to reupholster it.  As you may know by now, I am a color person, and orange makes me happy.
It may be a while before everything is finished, so in the meantime I will entice you with these…
Jonathan Adler’s New York Apartment… A little splash or orange in every room!
A jaw-dropping orange and magenta velvet sofa.
Orange accents for your beach bungalow.

Or perhaps an orange chair?
This is where orange meets masculine.  Love it.

Green With Envy?

Remember this post about going green? Well, after months of slacking… I am able to unveil my console… which I absolutely love. As you can see, she’s all decked out for the holidays.
 
There is a lot happening in our living room and dining room (the first being that the mirror needs to be raised…) and once it is finally finished I will be able to show all of you. Until then, here’s a teaser…..
