Fashion to interior: Crocheted bliss

The similarity was too obvious to be ignored, so I had to share my finds. Granny chic crocheted blanket found its place in fashion industry in the form of a cozy dress, warm and so much fun! I’ve seen the blanket itself long time ago, so a this-and-that moment hit me the second I saw the dress, looks like the crocheted bliss works in fashion just as good as it does in decorating :)

Dessert table: Tiffany blue+zebra

I know I normally don’t post party ideas and entertaining tips, but that doesn’t mean this isn’t inspiring me or has me swooning. So now, to show how wide my interests are I decided to share with you a dessert table created around a stunning colour – Tiffany blue (my color inspiration post you can see here) and a fabulous, bold pattern – zebra! Can you imagine the combo? Gentle and daring, airy and sophisticated – the uncombinable turned out to be a gorgeous colour theme, perfect for a baby shower, bridal shower or just a birthday party!

Symmetry

There is something so neat about symmetry in interior design. Clean look, balance when it comes to details – this just screams modern and look-but-don’t-touch kind of feeling. While I do love a bit crazier and artsy style for a room, sometimes symmetry feels just right, it’s like helping to keep everything under control in life, you know what I mean? Hoping you did understand me, here’s a picture that just stood out to me exactly because of the proportionality in art, colors, details.

Another thing I love about this living room is the rug, I find the pattern one of the prettiest and those colours complement it just perfectly!

What about you? Are you a fan of symmetry or not really?

Weekend inspiration

Happy weekend, darlings! This weekend I’m going to be inspired by bold hues and this picture is pretty much what I’m talking about: hot fuchsia, olive (and a hit of apple) green and red – looks to me like a very lovely combo, no?

Happy 4th of July to all my friends who celebrate (still remembering last year’s color inspiration post dedicated to this holiday – oldie, but goodie!). See you next week! xo

Ah, the busy days

Dropping by to say a big hello to all of my favorite creamylifers :). Things are busy, not much time for blogging which makes it for missing you even more! How are you? Are you enjoying summer? It’s a bit gray and rainy here the past few days, so soak up some sunshine for me as well, would you? Love to all! xo

That unforgettable blue motif…

Happy Monday, dears! I’d like to start off the week with a pattern that has me swooning every time and that is the blue motif – delft blue. These days we can not only see it in porcelain items, but also in fashion industry, jewellery, wallpapers and much more. I found some examples that make my eyes happy! Have a smasing week!

Weekend destination: Perivolas

TGIF!!! I’m afraid I say this every Friday, but I’m really REALLY happy the weekend is almost here. I had a hectic week all being a part of an insane period in my life, with way too many ups and downs. I know well the story that you’re the owner and creator of your destiny, but will you believe if I say that sometimes there are other factors that have so much bigger influence on my life than myself? By no meaning I want to spread negative vibes through my blog, that’s why I’ll stop here with my confessions and share instead a gorgeous hotel located in Santorini, Greece – Perivolas! I have nothing else left than just to daydream about it and intensively visualise myself there (you know how they say – ‘when you visualise, you materialize’) – this place is too amazing to be left unshared :).

Elephant love

How sweet is this elephant vase? Pretty much everything in this picture is perfect in my book (striped tablecloth, colours, flowers – hello!), but the vase is the absolute winner! By the way, this picture is SO Kate Spade, don’t you think? Hope you’re having a nice Friday :)

Not your average dresser

I saw this patterned dresser in a magazine and boy, I had to share it with you! Its oriental look was hard to be ignored and its timeless colour palette was too elegant to be passed away. All in all, not your average (boring, plain coloured – you name it) dresser. Such a sophisticated piece would a fabulous addition to a modern, fancy space bringing a fresh twist into the room.
