Hello, my darlings! I know I’m a bad, bad blogger for the past few weeks, I had some things going on, so I hope you can forgive me. Next week I’m travelling home (yay!) and posts might be chaotic again, I might even take a blogging break for the time I’m there celebrating Easter with my family. Time will show :). Now I want to wish you all a very happy weekend, enjoy the days off, have plenty of R&R and remember that life is all about little things, don’t take anything for granted and see the sun there where nobody else sees it!
Thank you all for visiting and reading creamylife, you make my days! xo

I’ve been a fan of Bunny Williams and her style for a long while and I absolutely love her soothing, somehow traditional style. Just as I said a few days ago, traditional interiors lately feel very refreshing, perhaps it’s because of my long-time obsession with vintage, eclectic, Scandinavian styles or the love for colors, but I’m more and more drawn to classic homes that carry valuable memories and soothing feelings. Earthy and neutral colors are the new black and Bunny Williams knows how do it just right! While I feel inspired by her entire portfolio, there is a particular home that has me mesmerized from the moment I saw it in Lonny. That house just feels the perfect home, a little escape to share blissful moments with loved ones.

By this moment you have all probably heard about the collaboration between Lonny magazine and Traditional home. Have you checked Tradhome mag yet? Just as its title says, the magazine is full of traditional designs and while I never thought I like traditional designs, I found the interiors from Tradhome very refreshing and innovative. However one thing I’ve learned throughout the magazine is that traditionalism can look stunning, but only when you add your own, special touch to the room: this might be an eclectic or extravagant piece – important is to break a little the ‘too traditional’ look of the space. The traditional tendencies seen in the magazine were the use of gold, black, white, brown and neutral shades and I guess that’s exactly what felt like a breath of fresh air to me.

And it’s finally happening! I said I’ll post the review yesterday, but certain circumstances led for it to happen today, hope you don’t mind. And now I’ll be showing you sneak peeks at the must-have book of all times, nearly the bible of interior design and home decor: Decorate by Holly Becker and Joanna Copestick. I was coveting this book for way too long and when it finally arrived I was stunned by how helpful, colorful and amazing the book is!

Happy Friday, dears! I’m finally at home, after what it seemed to me a very long week in the hospital, so I’m thrilled I got out from there :). There’s no place better than home, right? Speaking of home, sweet home – I just found my dream place! I mean seriously, it’s a stunning piece jam-packed with amazing details both modern and mid-century ones, with a sleek feeling to it, but the most important with a view you’ll DIE for: Mediterranean sea! What can be better than waking up in the morning to the sound of calming waves and to the smell of fresh air? I believe a better option simply doesn’t exist.

Is it only me or you also noticed that more and more designers and decorators when planning a nursery have a striped ceiling in there? I mean, I love stripes and I’ve proven it to you many times, but there’s just something I don’t get it: why striped ceiling in a nursery? Do babies feel happier when looking up and seeing stripes? Perhaps…If you have an idea why is this trend settling in, please share it with me, I’m VERY curious to know :)

Hello, friends! It’s Wednesday and well, what can I say, I couldn’t be happier! It’s that feeling we all have on Friday :). I’m hoping to be in the hospital until tomorrow (or Friday the latest) and I cannot wait to go home! How are you? Are you having a memorable week? I hope so :).
Today I wanted to speak with you about one not so common way of decorating and that is decorating with ladders! Whether is about old, washed out ladders or lacquered shiny ones – one thing I know for sure: not only ladders look good in a room (just like this), they also can be of much use (especially in bathrooms where you can put towels and all these things). For some reason I find ladders very modern, bringing a special feeling into a home. What do you think?

Hello, friends! Happy Monday! So I’m in the hospital, all is well, I could have my laptop with me – so far so good :). Today I’m in the mood for soothing feelings that’s why this picture I found on the internet was right up my alley! It has a French flair, it’s deliciously gray and calming, it has bits of glamour and well, it’s perfection!
There is something in this picture that has me mesmerized – I can’t take my eyes off of it! Might be the gorgeous mirror or that mantel, but I’m in love!

Fiona Douglas is a textile designer and the owner of Bluebellgray company based in Glasgow, Scotland and her home full of florals and bold colors got me swooning big time! One day I’d love to have a room in my home with walls painted in delicious navy color, with a neutral color palette where I can throw in colorful cushions and bright artwork – these two would make for some statement pieces in a room without much effort, right? Fiona‘s home goes straight to my inspirational folder.

I was introduced today to an online magazine that is pure delight! It’s called Est Magazine and it has SO many gorgeous articles, you’ll be truly overwhelmed with prettiness. They had an article about an Eames chair, the challenge was to recognize a real Eames and a replica (quite difficult task). The article just made me love the chair even more than I did before, so in its honor I put together a post about it and how well it might work in rooms that have different styles, color palettes etc.
