I realize I’m becoming quite predictable already, but I can;t help myself – cozy and modern homes are my faves at the moment! Case in point, this ranch home that just oozes warmth and chicness! The home is filled with romantic, shabby chic accessories yet keeping an industrial and contemporary feel – this, my friends, needs some serious decorating talent and some boldness (jade/teal bedroom? totally sold!). Here are some pics:
Modern & on a budget
Hi everyone!!! How are you, guys? I hope you’re doing well and the work week isn’t too tough on you :). Yes, I disappeared and yes – I do dare to hope you’ll understand my reasons (14 days until my due date, my level of anxiety sky-high, making it hard to focus on anything!). I miss blogging though, so I promise to pull myself together and spend more time sharing inspiration with you, guys!
So today I’m here with a beautiful modern home decorated on a budget, because we know that when it’s about cost-effective decorating IKEA is the perfect source. And that’s what the home owner did, with some help from friends, plenty of DIYs, Tara Ballantyne managed to design a cozy, inviting home without splurging too much.
Shades of blue
Hello, friends! Yet again I disappeared and I have no excuse. Well, maybe only the fact that I’m 36 weeks pregnant. Anyway, I hope you can understand me :).
Now that the summer is over, we’re left with the color palettes this amazingly refreshing seasons brings us. Like for example the breezy blues that make everything look airy, light and so easy-going. That’s exactly how this home is and I would move in in 2.5 seconds :)
By the sea
Today I’m dreaming about living by the sea, in a chic villa where modern meets timeless vibes of untouched. Even more if living by the sea means living in Greece, on one of their stunning islands that to me feel the biggest treasure the world has. Greek style has something special to it that leaves me in awe every time I see the houses there, color palettes, textures and patterns. Don’t you feel the same? While we’re at it, Santorini still remains my ultimate dream destination, but today I’m all about Tinos – another island with amazing villas!
California vintage home
When I saw this home my heart skipped a bit, it was a feeling one has when seeing ‘the one’, whether person, home, couch or things like that. It’s light, cozy, modern yet vintage and it has lots and lots of adorable colors and patterns. It felt like the one for me, because I could easily see myself living there, cooking in a mint kitchen, seating on coral vintage dining chairs or just hanging out in a living room with an awesome rug! What’s your say: yay or nay for vintage homes?
Color your home brightly
Happy Saturday, friends! Are you enjoying the weekend? If you’re not yet, I’ll be putting you in the right mode by inviting you to a Swedish home filled with bright colors and fresh blooms. It’s a magic place that feels like a real home – inviting, cheery and well, happy! I wish all the homes would look like that, the world would definitely be a better place!
Home tour: fashion illustrator Dallas Shaw
Hello, darlings! First of all I would like to THANK you all for the sweetest comments on yesterday’s post! You make me the happiest and I appreciate your support to no end! :)
Secondly, I have to confess something – I have a dream and that is to be a fashion illustrator. I love illustrations that capture the sensuality of fashion, that perfectly show off stunning details and stylish personalities. In addition, fashion illustrators are always looking hot and they live in gorgeous apartments – sign me up for both! That’s exactly the story of Dallas Shaw – young, talented, stylish AND with a killer home – stylish perfection all around.
Living in serenity
Hello, lovelies! Just as I said, I’m back with a dose of apology for not posting such a long time – it was a break I needed. I hope you’re enjoying this gorgeous spring weather (have I mentioned spring is my favorite time of the year?). Anyway, I’m feeling rested right now, very peaceful inside and out, which is a blissful feeling (trying to keep it for as long as I can!), that’s why today’s post is a home tour to show off exactly the serenity I’m filled with.
Happy Brooklyn inspired home
I just came across a happy home indeed. With many colors and bright blooms I can’t decide whether I like more the bold blue of a wall or the hot pink stools. Oh and there are also the red hanging bulbs in the bathroom – can it get better than that? Check it out:
