bejeweled wrists

Pile them on or keep it simple? I wear my black and gold Hermes H enamel bangle and gold Michael Kors watch on my right wrist everyday and switch the bracelets on my left wrist but sometimes don't put any on. I have small wrists and have trouble finding bangles that fit...wish I had more because bracelets/bangles are a great way to accessorize and add to any outfit. I love the mix of gold and rose gold and would love an arm full of simple thin gold bangles...and all the bracelets in the first photo(dream)!! How do you like to wear bracelets?

top five - memorial day

Today I will be enjoying some fabulous food (bbq!), time with great friends and some fun in the sun. I have thoroughly enjoyed my three day weekend with some much needed time in the sun, going out with friends and working on some decorating projects for the new place (which I will share soon). Hope you all have enjoyed the three day weekend and enjoy this day with good food and friends!

minty fresh

Mint green has never really been a color that I have been drawn to (except for the fact that mint chocolate chip ice cream is my favorite!) but I am starting to rethink that. There is something very appealing about it, maybe because its so light and fresh feeling? I don't know, I have never been a huge fan of pastels but something about it is pulling me in. I love the color paired with gold as seen in the first bedroom, which I really really love! I would happily trade my bedroom for this room and not change a single thing!! 
















What do you think about mint green?

pillow talk

So my new sofa is coming in two weeks and I cannot wait, it will really start to pull the room together...the first photo is not my actual sofa but it is the best representation I could find of the actual color. I need some pillows to decorate it with, I just cannot decide what colors I want to use! So far my room is pretty much a blank slate-I have some metallic accessories, dark wood furniture (which I am slowly replacing) and white gourd lamps. I know I want to throw some more metallics in but not sure what other colors/patterns? Etsy has so many great options...I am amazed. Any favorite sellers on etsy? 













What color/pattern do you think will look best with the sofa?
