This home tour I came across yesterday is my dream come true (well, at least that’s how I feel now). Although we all know I adore colors, when it comes to my home, I prefer it to be calming, laid-back and comfy, so neutral colors are way more appropriate than splashes of bright shades. I liked how the home has vintage touches with a modern, stylish flair. Oh and there were some colors in the home, seen in wall art or cushions – just the perfect pops of a subtly cheerful color palette!

Velvet and navy
Velvet always feels royal, so if you pair it with this gorgeous, rich hue – navy – you’re sure to get an outstanding effect! Normally I don’t like velvet so much, but there were some pictures I saw a while back which blew me away and I was daydreaming about velvet and navy ever since.
Boards to inspire
The last few weeks I have one thing on my to-do list I’ve been postponing forever and that is to redo my inspiration board. I’m afraid to change it, I’m afraid I won’t have space to pin everything that inspires me, I’m afraid that pinning everything what actually inspires me will create the feeling of a huge, incohesive mess. There are many things I’m afraid of and I know it sounds silly. Perhaps I’m not brave enough to embrace changes? Maybe. That’s why I decided to post some of the inspiration boards I’d love to re-create.
Photographer Magnus Anesund
And again we’re at this – amazing Swedish talents. I’m so in love with photographer Magnus Anesund, I feel like I want to jump as high as I can. His work is uber inspiring, I might just get an overdose right now. He can make look chic a white, minimalistic space just the same as a colorful or even dramatic one. I tell you, his photography skills are enviable and as much as I admire such a talent, I’m slightly jealous :)
Leopard stairs
Because everybody needs some leopard in his/her life. I know I blogged about leopard print a while back, but seeing it in stairs takes it to a whole new level. Quite the unexpected detail, just the perfect bit of extravaganza a home might need. Not vulgar, but VERY glamorous and chic. Would you dare to use leopard print that way? Let’s discuss the trend.
Bohemian Charm
Today I found myself dreaming about bold colors, florals and geometric patterns. On a dreary day like today that can be the only thing to save me, you know? I’m really looking forward to spring and summer, when I’ll finally be able to pull out all my colorful dresses and colorful accessories. Ah dreams! But we’re almost there, so hold on a little more, that is if you’re like me. These pictures where fashion inspires interior design (or vice-versa, why not) are the perfect image of how I would like my life to be, at least for one day. Bohemian and charming – when freedom is all you have and the sky is your limit :).
Color+Inspiration: Pink+Orange
Perhaps it’s the anticipation of spring or Valentine’s day which happens to be today (see my post dedicated to it here), but I’m really attracted by bold, bright and so passionate hues such as orange and pink, particularly about this combo. The vibrant color combination shouts modern and daring and while I thik it might be too much for a living room, it certainly looks amazing in a girl’s room, kitchen or seen in smaller details such as rugs, bedding, curtains so on. Oh not to mention that pink+orange left its marks in fashion too! Various designers have their spring/summer collections around this combo and it totally looks chic!
Teal and cozy
What can be teal AND cozy? Of course a sofa! I came across a home tour with its overall color palette right up my alley (um, hello Scandinavian gorgeousness!), yet I’ve been having my eyes on a particular detail – the sofa in the living room. It’s to die for! It’s teal with hints of emerald green, it’s a leather chicness and it looks very comfy, so well, what’s not to love?

Room of one pattern
I’ve been flipping through my magazines over the weekend and saw some pictures which made me stop, look again (a few times) and ask myself ‘really?’. Ok, so I should probably make myself understood. What do you think about using ONE SINGLE PATTERN in a room? Whether we’re speaking about bedroom, living room or any other, having wallpapers, chairs’ upholstery, curtains, tablecloth and/or sheets in the same pattern – does it make sense at all? The images caught my attention, not sure if it was for a good reason or not. I mean, I don’t intend to criticize designers who like this, but it simply doesn’t feel like fitting my personality (it’s sort of suffocating). Maybe I’m wrong, yet still I’ll say ‘no, thanks’. And you?
Color+Inspiration: Tiffany blue
Good Monday morning! Hoping that you all had a fabulous weekend, will kick off this week with a color+inspiration post and just so you know for the past few days I was inspired to no end by a very bright and lively shade of blue: Tiffany blue, the color of the famous Tiffany & Co. Probably I don’t need to explain much why do I love both the color and the company, I just do and am pretty sure I’m not alone. Here’s some Tiffany blue inspiration:
