Another week seems to have flown by and I am not sure where one day began and the next ended.. but there is hope for relaxing in site so I keep going!

This is a little peek at a living room project I am working on with a special client - more on that later though...

Some great things to check out this weekend..

Andrea always has the best entertaining and cooking ideas.. I cannot wait until she has another party!

I still want to be a stylist when I grow up... so inspiring!

Totally falling for this etsy/craigslist hybrid

I am pretty sure I need this real bad!

This little goodie should wrap itself up and be delivered right to me..

Have a wonderful weekend!

I know we don't do a lot of color here on the blog but sometimes it is fun!  I keep coming across beautiful bright colors as Summer begins and we get to embrace the feeling of bright and fun things.

The orange in these spaces is bold and dramatic.  Such a big chance to take!

What do you think, do you go for it with color?  I have always held onto the idea that color and trends are for accents, these seem to go against that idea with a strong expression of orange.

We visited the Santa Monica flea market on Sunday and there was a little something for everyone.  We indulged in textiles and vintage handbags and it was amazing!  It was a very colorful day...

 

My Sis picked up the cutest vintage shoes.. Love these!

We picked up some color...

I always love these but can never think of how I could use one..

These were fun and funky they were made with sand..

We picked up this little beauty for my sisters renovation!  I am so excited to see it all come together...

This little beauty will be coming to the shop soon..  perfect for so many things..

 

I love love the graphic nature of this shower.  It is dark and super cool!  The tub isn't too shabby either.  (lights questionable) :)  It's nice to come across something a little bit different!

Ahh.. it is so nice to be on this side of the installs that I had last week.  This was one of my favorites and I am excited to share it with you.  (Sorry I forgot my real camera just instagram and iphone pics for now.)  I hope you are looking forward to a relaxing weekend like I am, we are relaxing around the house and enjoying the sunshine today and then off to the Clippers game on Sunday to watch my little one cheer before the game.

Also, a BIG THANK YOU to Hinkley Lighting for including me in their 2013 catalog under Expert Advice!!  I was so thrilled to be included with the other amazing designers and experts!

I spent the better part of the day on Tuesday looking for inspiration to get my point across.   Often times it is the picture that inspires me when I design but sometimes I search for the perfect photo to convey what I am trying to do.  This week it was difficult!!  I did however find A LOT of inspiration in an archived issue of Lonny Magazine from a while back.. These are just a few of my favorites- there  are definitely more in this issue.  I wish each and every magazine came with so much wonderful inspiration to it!

It has been a busy week already and it shows no signs of slowing down..  I thought I would share a little bit of what I have been working on.  This is one of the two projects I am designing this week.  I am really loving it.

Hope you are having a wonderful week so far!
