Feelin' my vibe.....

I am sure this is not the first time you have seen them but I just want to express my obsession love for all things Ruthie Sommers. I cannot get enough of her feature in Lonny this month. Love the quirkiness, cheerful, lived in vibe. As I always ask my husband, “Are you feelin’ my vibe?”. Well Ruthie ..... I am feelin’ your vibe.
It is a wonderful mish mash of patterns, texture, and color. Definitely maximalist home which is totally me. I used to think I needed to pare down items in my home to create calm. This is probably true for most people, but ironically for me I am less calm.
Calm in the chaos I guess. Case in point.... my 4 year old Wyatt is building a fortress of paper towel and toilet paper rolls around me as I calmly write this post. Can I just stay in here the rest of the day?
Ok now to the gorgeous photos....
Black and white floors and pink velvet.... yes please!!!


Animal print, blue and white jars, chinoiserie, love it all.....
Hello!!!!!! So bold and daring.....
Those crocodile walls are to die for.....
Love that blue and white lamp....... I really never tire of those.
Love those pink bins under that cooky table... too fabulous!

Too much time......

In case you didn't notice, the blog is looking a little different. What started out as a little tweak, kept going and going and going. Then I couldn't stop as I completely re-arranged things unintentionally. See I have a sick kiddo asleep which leaves a lot of time on my hands! So I beg for your patience as I tidy and snazzy things up around here. Oh and I have a lot to share with you on our house. I know, I know.... wow she takes a long time. Lots of pictures to come.... as soon as I can get my house clean. I like to keep it real but not that real.

Oh and can someone tell me why everything is underlined? Geesh..... what did I get into!

In the mean time here are some pretty little offices that I would love to be sitting in.... mine is currently an in house storage facility......
