Black and White Stripes

I have a very large weakspot for black and white. ESPECIALLY black and white stripes. I only have a few stripes in my house, but that may change soon...I have a certain room in mind.

I think I found my knockoff rug...

Pottery Barn wont be bringing back their Emma Rug. I'm so sad, it's the one I wanted for our dining room. I saved and saved for it ( it was like $800 ) and they took it away.

So here's my backup plan. It's Martha Stewarts Chrysanthemum Rug. It's half the price of Emma, and has a similiar feel. Hoping to get this in the fall :)

Ugly Monday

You too, can enjoy these fat ballerina figurines ( zgallerie ) for the low price of $49 each.

I need. Sun.

See that sky? That white, cloudy overcast sky? This is all I've seen for a couple of weeks. It's enough to make me crazy and depressed. My husband, daughter and I are in search for 80 degree weather, so we'll be heading out on a spontaneous vacation. Plus it's our 5 year anniversary on Thursday. See you next week!

Ugly Monday. Pier One, Fail.

Ok I'm the girl that HATES scrolly things. So for me, this is furniture suicide.
It's the Pier One Quentin Console. It's even worse because it's got a price tag of $500.

Not enough for you? Here's a yoga frog lamp from Pier One. $45.
