Color is in the details...

Adding some color with your accessories is a great way to make your room pop! Whether its a curtain panel(s), lamps, pillows or vases, any of these pieces will be a way to add your own unique touch to your home decor. I have been missing for awhile because the PopSugar website has changed, but I was finally able to locate my blog. Enjoy the warmer weather and I will be back soon!

Turquoise accessories...

Not sure what Popsugar is doing, but I'm hoping they are not getting rid of these blogs!! Its March! Old man winter must get kicked to the curb soon right? So in honor of the March birthday month and its birthstone aquamarine (that's me!), here are some turquoise options from the new store C. Wonder. The store is the brainchild of designer Tory Burch's ex-husband Chris Burch. Lots of colorful stuff to choose from so if you are in New York, its a must visit. Happy Spring!!

Stylish dresses...

Hello bloggers! Just a little something different on this snowy Sunday...I have been thinking about changing the way I dress and look on a daily basis and nothing seems easier than a dress. Just add some leggings or tights and knee-high boots and you're ready for the day. I have two dresses I bought on sale from Macy's, but, would like to add some more dresses for effortless styling. What is your go-to secret for easy dressing in the morning? Do you wear outfits each day that make you think, 'I feel great!' ?? I would love to know! Happy shopping!! By the way, these are all great colorways to incorporate into your home right?

Really useful items...for the home...

Its time to get organized! Its still January and its a great time of year to get your home in order. Check out these great items from the Container Store (some I didn't know existed!) to corral your stuff, including a holder for your blow dryer, pods for your makeup and for the guys, a remote control rack. Carpet protection at this time of year keeps snow and salt away from your precious investment. I love the twisty ties for those annoying cords that always seem to trip me up around my bed! Have a great weekend and happy shopping!!

Fashion deals...wardrobe basics...

Happy New Year!! I don't know about you, but I need a serious new wardrobe! I have already purchased a white watch, but I would love a pair of red pants, how about you? The white shirt goes with anything, a pair of classic gold hoops and a neutral gray sweater to add some oomph. I love the patterned handbag too. I see these color basics in an interior design scheme, can you? Perhaps a white sofa with red and gray pillows with gold accents in the room like a lamp or mirror. For a refreshing change, don't forget to look at reds, whites, blues (the handbag) and grays- Happy New Year indeed! Thank you for your support and visiting me here, I appreciate each and every one of you! xo

Gift ideas under $15...

Greetings!! I apologize its been so long since I posted, but, things have been busy in my life, not least of which is my elderly kitty cat, who is sick right now and I am his nurse. Here are some great ideas for either gifts or stocking stuffers under $15. There is something for everyone including a tree ornament, candle pillar, mug, towels, door knobs and my favorite, the Weekly Meal Planner for just $10.00. Anthropologie is such a great destination for just about anything for the home as well as clothing and jewelry. The best part is that you can buy online making it easy for you!! So happy shopping and I'll be back soon!

Staying cozy...

Its time to start thinking about keeping warm, with a hurricane barrelling up the east coast and winter coming soon, an update to the bedroom is just what you want. To update your bedroom, simply change your bedding, paint a wall, add a colorful lampshade or rug and voila! It can be a whole new look. My favorite is the Trina Turk yellow and white duvet - gorgeous!! You can always recycle what you have in storage, its always good to re-use, reinvent and recycle

Shed a little light...

I don't shop often at Kohl's but was struck by the very hip choices they offer for lighting in your home. From modern to traditional, they have it all. I especially love the gray Madison table lamp and the Curvy table lamp to add a little metal and color to a room. Wouldn't the Curvy lamp look great in a room with lots of white, glass and shag carpet? The Madison belongs in a chic living room with lavenders and blues. Which one would you buy? Happy shopping!!

Animal instincts...

This is not your usual animal motif that you love for your home - the leopard, zebra, snake or deer head that is so 'in' right now. I thought I would mix it up and add a different kind of animal to the decor. How about lampshades with birds? Pillows with dogs? A hippo head? how cool is that?? A little gold rhino tchotchke for a coffee table, or, put it on your desk and use it as a paperweight. Wouldn't you love to have one of these for a unique design twist in your home?
