Im a magpie

This season I'm attracted to all things bling and glittery. Heavily beaded vintage or vintage-inspired tops and dresses to full sequined jackets like the one below. How perfect for Christmas.

This wonderful bench was once a boring dated looking piece of junk. But with a little magical this and that, it's been given a new lease of life. Something I would have bought in a heart beat. More of the DIY story here.

With the recent news of getting a new place with the folks(!), I'm so inspired to hunt for secondhand furniture (when the time comes) and give them new life. The reads at design*sponge are all so inspiring. White washed walls with a random pop of color here and there, a mix of modern and the old. It's all in my head just waiting for it to happen.

Summer whites

White floaty dresses, a signature headband and brogues! How refreshing and unexpecting. Now I feel a need to score one of those white brogues (or a uber cool black & white one) on ebay.
