Bedroom Balance

I truly believe one can wake up on the wrong side of the bed! Even though I am horrible at taking my own advice, I think one's bedroom should be awesome, comfy, clean (this is where I fail), and well balanced...or zen if you will. If you make the bedroom your favorite room, I think a good night's rest and a happy morning is in your future!

Here's a little easy recipe for balance, style, and comfort: Grand bed, matching night stands and table lamps, soft rug, fab throw pillows, and a cushioned bench.

Disclaimer: this post is pricey. Will try and be more affordable next time =)

Stylishly Scottsdale

Here's my take on a Scottsdale inspired room. I gave it a muted palette with an elegant feel.  I love the mixing of modern and rustic elements in this room.  The navajo rug inspired it all!

Vamp Glam

I must be watching too much True Blood these days because this room screams Vampire Glam.  Suppose if I were a vamp, this might be just right!

Worldly Textures

As I am plotting my excursions to NYC, Montana, Texas, Hawaii, Vegas, and London for the next 6 months, I start to imagine what kind of room would fit a world traveler.  I picture something cozy, but vibrant with textures and lots of personality. The decor and furniture would be inspired by all parts of the globe, and elements of nature and vintage accessories sprinkled throughout.

She Fancy, Huh?

I'm a girl; therefore, things that sparkle and shine tickle my fancy.  I am obsessed with chandeliers and mirrored furniture, and I have been itching to use this ABC chair in one of my rooms.  So why not go all out?! It's a blog, and I'm living out my fantasies on here, so take this room with a grain of salt.  It's all around fancy, shiny, metallic, but with a neutral pallet.  I personaly couldn't pull this room off, but some seriously glam single gal probably could! ;)

So ME Room

If only I could change my room to be more like this! I love these colors, patterns, mixture of modern and vintage, neon lights, and rich wood.  Not to mention the $1k cashmere throw blanket...oh me oh my.  It's also the bedroom to this living room....and not even on purpose!

Cheaper Chic

Realizing that I usually post quite expensive furniture rooms, I attempted to design one that is a little more affordable.   I wanted it to be classic, fresh, but still chic!  I personally shop at West Elm, Pier 1, Z Gallerie, and Cost Plus, so I am happy to use the stores that I know and love.
