Setting Sun




top: Urban Outfitters, skirt: Anthropologie, shoes: Seychelles
With the first day of Spring just around the corner and "springing" our clocks forward on Sunday means only one thing: longer hours of daylight. Things like getting off work at 6pm and it's still light outside make me extremely happy. Friday was seriously our last day of cold weather and packing my tights away for another 6 months makes me very happy too! Texture is the name of the game in this outfit: chambray, wool, and suede all come together in their blue/grey undertones to pull it all together. Here's to playing in the sunshine everyone!

Dreaming of Headboards

My bed is in need of some serious TLC. In my small bedroom there really isn't any room for a traditional headboard. But that doesn't mean this little apple needs to be sleeping under a blank wall. I've been collecting some ideas to try out that won't add any length to it's existing space or hurt my wallet. So until I have the room and the money for my dream headboard, three words: upholstered, velvet, grey, I think one of these looks is a great substitution. What is your favorite non-traditional headboard look?

Everyone's favorite painting trend: chalkboard! Either in the shape of a headboard or a simple rectangle shape

A variation on the bunting theme. I could use vintage images or colorful paper to fit my bedroom's color scheme

Or going the fabric banner route with patterned and solid colors.
