chicago modern

a newly renovated home in chicago offers a light-drenched modern appeal. this was orignally a townhome in lincoln park (an area of chicago) and was completely rehabbed by architect Sig Froelich of Froelich Kim. there are more and more homes here in chicago going the modern route rather than the traditional (yay!)

love the light marble paired with sleek stainless steel

seattle cabin

a couple near Seattle, Mac Dunstan and Linda Grob, built this traquil and modern cabin in 2004 for $500,000. it spans a decent 1,600 square feet with stunning views of trees and mountains. what a fantastic retreat, or home! i am originally from Seattle and this definitely fits right into Washington's natural landscape.

moccasin

these moccasins, just out from Urban Outfitters, are to die for. the lace detail on the side and front make these cute as a button. i know it might be chilly out but wouldn't they be the cutest paired with some leggings and a skirt?

granny chic

granny chic, i love you. don't the bright colors and flowers make you want to smile? i sure adore it. it's very fun to go to a thrift store or antique mall to grab something 50 years old and make it 'new' again. patterns, doilies, colors, oh my!

this floral chair paired with the kelly green lamp makes me drool

doilies, oh doilies, you are God (and art)
