Boys' Bathroom

Image
You must have wondered if I dropped off the face of the planet... I'm still here.  The fam and I were lucky enough to spend a little fun in the sun with good friends and family for the last week.   Nothing like a little fun, sun and r & r to pick up the spirits. I have to admit that there are quite a few house pictures that I have been holding back from you. I promise to be more forthcoming.  More pics coming soon of our Master Bedroom, updates to Hayden's room and a design dilemma that is driving me cray cray. Until then, here are some pictures of the boys' bathroom. Luckily for us, we made only a few minor adjustments that I think went a long way. You've heard me say it once and I'll say it again- nothing wrong with this room, but we wanted to add our own splash to the space.  We also thought that the black and white tiles added some fun and were perfect for a little boys' bathroom. We didn't change any of the tiles and...

Weekend in Review

Image
Hello There! Hope you had a lovely weekend (yes, I know it's Wednesday). The hubby and I had friends in town from Cali this past weekend.  We hadn't seen them in ages, which is unfortunately what happens when all of your friends have kids and live far away.  :(  We were lucky enough to spend some quality time with them and have a super nice dinner, catch a Broadway play and see a college football game together.  I love when you haven't seen friends in a super long time, but you pick up right where you left off and it feels like it's been days since you last saw them instead of years.  I guess this is just a sign of AMAZING friends. Ahhhh.. Thank God for friends like these. Anywho, back to the weekend festivities.... Though I have been to MANY of my alma mater's football games , this was a whole 'nother level.  Sorry CU !  We went to see Syracuse and USC play at, what I prefer to call, the new Giants Stadium (I hate how eve...

Sneak Peek: Amy's Brooklyn Pad, Part 2

Hello there! Remember this pretty lady and this handsome guy? If you don't take a look { here } . Well, they are back! I had so many pictures from Amy's Brooklyn pad that I didn't want to cram all of them into my last post. So, here are a few more.... Amy's guest bathroom is simple and white, but I LOVE how she adds these intense splashes of color to take the space from normal to AMAZING. Super cute idea, right? Guest bath towels in this lovely basket. All bath accessories by Jonathan Adler. See { here } , { here } , { here } and { here } . Here's Amy's closet. MAJOR! MAJOR! For you non-city dwellers this closet is beyond a rarity in most NYC apartments. I definitely need this jewelery storage in my new closet. Master Bathroom.  Super sleek and contemporary. Of course, Pablo's dog house/crate is as equall...

Sneak Peek: Amy's Brooklyn Pad, Part 1

Image
Today I'm giving you a sneak peek into the amazing Brooklyn apartment of my friends Amy and Bryan.  Amy and I go waaaaaaaaay back.  We've been friends since freshman year of college. Unfortunately, this is longer ago than I care to admit.  When Amy told me she was decorating her new place, I jumped at the opportunity to chit chat about the space; share ideas; and, of course, drink some wine. ;) Check us out back in the day with our other besties and roomies: Yes, we thought we were cool.  Yes, this was before low rise jeans came into being. LOL A slightly more up-to-date picture of Amy and her sweet pup, Pablo: Amy's 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment has an open floor plan where the living room, dining area and kitchen share a space.  Love the graphic pattern on this rug, which makes it the focal point of the room (for now). It will probably be moved to the guest bedroom and replaced by an amazing cowhide rug. ...
