Ever wondered why is white both calming, warm-ish and sterile at the same time? I know it’s an unimaginable combo, but I often feel exactly this when I see how this color is used in interiors. Sometimes it can be very soothing while other times so minimalist and look-but-don’t-touch. The home tour below features a white (beige-y) which is very warm, serene and simple perfection for a home. Take a look:
Weekend
Hello, loves! So sorry for being a bit absent this week, as much as I tried to keep up with all the things that I have to do/achieve sometimes it’s just too much on my plate and at this moment that’s exactly how I feel. But enough about me, tell me how are you? How was your week, are you embracing fall? Happy weekend!

happy birthday RUE
Rue magazine turned one, congratulations to the amazing team! The magazine has been a treasure and inspiration from the very first issue and I believe I’ll keep being astonished by it till the end (hope there won’t be one). Here are a few favourite images from their anniversary issue (Crystal’s home is simply gorgeous). Congrats, girls!
Pink Monday
I wish you all a fabulous Monday, week, month (is it really October?). Today I’m treating you to a dose of pink glamour, hoping it will make your day pink and well, glamorous :)

Think Big
I just came across a home that perfectly fits under the saying ‘think big’. With mostly big size wall art, that space became a livable gallery, eclectic and grand. And I got myself thinking that big pieces are the only thing you need in a home for a bigger impact and a more dramatic look. Whether it’s about paintings, mirrors or even rugs it all works the same. Think big, people!

Mid-week treats
I know I normally don’t post about food here on the blog, but every once in a while I’m tempted to share with you delicious photography from all around the Internet. I though I’d start with macaroons, because everybody loves them, but then there are these adorable little cupcakes that I can’t stand. Oh well, enjoy these few pictures and if you’d like to indulge yourself more, hop on my Pinterest board which is created especially for cupcakes and macaroons – because I really think that even lovely (edible) treats might inspire us :)
Rich emerald
Loving emerald, yet again! I can’t resist the temptation (nor I want to) to share with you some ’emerald’ finds of mine that I’m sure will inspire you. And by the way, I really think emerald is a stunning alternative to the traditional brown-golden-beige fall palette, along with teal (that I wrote about last week), but of course!
The two images below feel like the same room shot from different corners, no? The saturated emerald of the curtains are the perfect match for the armchair – to me this is one room! What do you think?

Oh, Monday…
Hello to all my dearest creamylifers! How was your weekend? Is it fall where you are (and I mean for real)? Here we have pretty warm weather, sunny yet just perfect for wearing light sweaters and scarves, so what can I say – I’m totally loving it and wish it lasts for a very long while! Are you back to sweaters just yet or you can’t let go of summer? :)
No matter how your weather is, I hope you’re doing great, sweets! Here’s to a wonderful week! Happy Monday!
How gorgeous is this table setting (below). I’m loving the pretty mugs with numbers, they can be used in so many ways!

Weekend inspiration
TGIF! Time to call it a week (almost), to put our feet up and relax. The thought brings a huge smile on my face, so ‘yay’ for weekends! Today I’m inspired by this fashionable arrangement, which is perfection in my opinion, especially for this fall season as I’m planning on hitting it hard with classic and elegant outfits along with glamorous lady-like ones (I’m especially enamored with the color of the pants – totally glam!). What are your go-to clothing pieces/colors this fall?
See you next week! Enjoy the weekend :)

Good morning
Happy Thursday! I’m wishing you a very good morning and let me congratulate you (and myself) – it’s almost Friday! Why does this feeling make us happy? Oh well, no matter why, I still love to wake up on a Thursday knowing that the work week is close to be done! Anyway, enjoy the day!
