Mustard is having its comeback this season and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I blogged about this color last year and my obsession with it didn’t fade remaining one of the most fall-friendly color crushes. The richness and heaviness of mustard make it a gorgeous alternative to traditional fall colors, a perfect compromise between yellow and brown and a warm stylish hue on its own. Mustard for him, for her and their home – what’s not to love?

Owl-icious
Have I ever mentioned that I adore owls? The cute little owls, not the scary ones! I find them super sweet and can’t get enough of them. Just for the record I’m still collecting giraffes, but hey – they’ll not mind having friends owls, right? Anyways, here’s an ‘owlicious’ post and tell me, how do you feel about them?
Minimalism in the bedroom
Are you a minimalist lover or not? Or better to ask are you a clutter lover or not, especially when we speak about bedrooms? I think I’m a clutter hater no matter the room, but I guess I’m very minimalistic when it comes to bedrooms. I like clean lines, soothing colors, few to no accessories – just the serenity of the space.
So what do you say – yay or nay?
Madrid loft – European chicness
Happy Monday! For today I have prepared a home tour which shows off European chicness at its best. We all know that European homes are different than American or any other ones due to the influence of the culture, history and people’s personalities. So what you know as traditional American will be so different here in Europe and that’s the charm and advantage of living here – I get to see the European gorgeousness with my own eyes and believe it, this is priceless!
The house of flowers…sort of
I know you’ve all heard about Gatherings, the new (to me, at least) online magazine that is so adorable and laid back. I mean, not that the only thing to see are pretty pictures, not at all – the magazine is filled with recipes, advice on decorating, inspiring interviews and much more, but it’s all put together in a heart-warming way, making you want to escape to a stress-free world, where all the homes look like lovely collections of patterns, fresh flowers and vintage! Speaking of homes, here’s one I definitely see myself in (at least these days).
Tartan as we know it
Is there anything cozier than tartan? The pattern is the king of the fall/winter seasons and who’d think it will look just so perfect in the ensemble of earthy colors, fallen leaves, fire and hot cocoa? Oh and maybe a book too, because cuddling in front of a fire without a book is just not the same, right? To help you get cozy and cuddle up (even if it’s Tuesday and there’s no time for that), here’s a pretty collection of images:
Chartreuse obsession
I don’t often see chartreuse used in home decor and although I blogged about it awhile back (here and here) I still find it quite intriguing and modern. Like for example, who’d think chartreuse might look so amazing in a home office? I’m stunned by the richness of this shade against white walls and how well it might complement other bold colors like fuchsia, yellow etc.
P.S. How fun it is to frame magazine covers and hang them on the wall? Have always thought the idea is brilliant!
P.P.S. Louis ghost chairs in that olive green color? I DIE.

Indoor fauna
It’s always fun to spice up your home with attractive little pieces that might be inherited treasures, thrift finds or pretty home decor investments. That’s why I thought you’d like to see a post about how people bring fauna into their homes. There might be peacocks, elephants, horses, frogs etc., one thing is clear to me – the idea is brilliant!
Ampersand trend
Ampersand sign – I bet you’ve seen it everywhere the past months (or years?). Well, I’m no exception, I fell in love with its look right away. However, I do have a favourite design and although I love them all, that particular ampersand is on the top of my faves. The huge variety of ampersands makes it difficult to decide on one piece that we would bring into our home: giant sized or tiny ones? Wooden or metal? Colourful or shabby chic? Oh, dilemmas. What do you like the most?
Book review: Decorate
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!
