Dwelling



June 18, 2008

I love Dwell studio bedding.
This is my favorite for about $300
and the exciting thing is that dwell studios designs for Target too. So perhaps for now i’ll have to live with this one for the fraction of the cost.
I’m also loving this pillow

Book Girl



June 14, 2008

I love Anthropologie’s new cataloge.

This whole room is made out of books.

I think I want to cover a whole wall of book pages next year.

I chose not to choose life



June 13, 2008

“Choose your future. Choose life… But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got heroin?”

I watched Trainspotting for the first time a couple nights ago and I love it. I’ll have to admit that Ewan McGregor was a huge selling point. Cause you can’t beat sex, drugs and Ewan. There are some pretty graphic images so be cautioned but all in all i recommend it.

A little more Sexy



June 5, 2008

I found some more pictures of Carrie’s remodeled apartment! Thanks to Casa and The Chicago Tribune

And yet, as much as her new apartment is Beautiful. You still have to give her shabby chic older apartment some respect. here’s some pictures of that too:I love all the magazines in the bookshelf here. A writer definitly lives here, no?

HELLO

Decor and home with a little bit of daydreaming and real life sprinked in. My husband and I are slowly updating our 1900 Dutch Colonial. I love hunting for vintage and flying the pacific northwest and the world with my aviator husband.
