Love the pops of girly colors in this Asian bedroom. The bright colors and floral prints give a fun and energetic feel but they don't overpower the room, there is still a touch of cozy and comfort in this bedroom. And you can't ignore the comfy settee with soft pillows. I don't understand what the Asian artwork says there, but I like it... adds a bit of interest and aesthetic. This bedroom is not so spacious but looks so lovely. Do you like the bed crown in here? or is it too much drama for you?
I just love the big windows in this space and the wonderful view it shows off. I love the blue and green color combo because they create a cool and fresh vibe, in here shades of blue are used in the interiors and the green lush garden for the outdoors but somehow the two spaces are created to be side by side and meant to be together. Nice choice of furniture too, minimal and allows the inside space to breathe. What is your take on this lovely nook with a view?

(click on the image to enlarge)This is a cool bedroom for a cool guy. I was thinking about my son when I saw this bedroom, it would be so perfect for him, at least that's what I think. My ten-year old son is about to start taking his guitar lessons and I'm so excited. Well, most girls love a guy who can play a guitar, there's just something sexy about a guy who can strum a guitar and if he can sing well too it would be perfect. I know my son is still too young for me to think of girls going after him. Love this room not only because of the presence of a guitar which to me denotes coolness but also there are books inside, so it means that the dweller is also into reading and hopefully an intellectual too, did you notice the open book on the study table? I also adore the glass windows that allow a view of the garden and the presence of a balcony that could be a space to relax and entertain friends. Nice carpet and an inviting bed covered in white sheets is just splendid. And this bedroom is so neat too, oh if only my son would grow up to learn how to keep his room neat and orderly then I'll be one happy Mom.

I love the blue and white color combo. It is simple, easy on the eyes, time-tested and relaxing. Makes you think of skies and seas. And when this color combo is used in a bathroom, you'll definitely end up with a gorgeous bathroom that is serene, laid-back, relaxing, and neat looking. I heart the powdery blue wallpaper in this bathroom that complements the almost all white surroundings. The claw-foot bathtub is gorgeous as well as inviting plus the his-and-hers sink is definitely a dream for me. Candles and flowers for me is a must in my bathroom, definitely scented candles and only fresh flowers will do. Oh and a mirror too, every woman wants to look in the mirror after taking a bath, preferable while drying her hair and body with fresh soft towels.

This is such a fabulous bedroom, clean white sheets and white curtains always get me when it comes to bedrooms. I know white sheets need to be replaced frequently but I love them. The rug is such a delicate touch in this bedroom and it being white and a bit fluffy may raise maintenance concerns too, oh but it looks so great in there. The turquoise chair is divine, right? It must be so lovely to spend some time in there reading with that gorgeous chandelier above to illuminate. Oh and I love the door that leads to that veranda, it looks spacious too and allows natural light to get in, too bad we can't see what's in there.
I could definitely sleep here... this girly bedroom looks really inviting. Love the white brick wall behind the bed and did you see the carving details on the bed? Love the crystal chandelier, the gold mirror, and even that little floral lamp. I love the simplicity of the soft curtain, and that chair...oh I can see myself sitting and reading there, wrapping that lovely shawl to keep me warm and maybe a hot choco to be placed beside that clear vase.

I find this simple nook beautiful. In fact, I'd love one right now, oh yes please, I need a place where I can read quietly with a black deck chair where I can recline comfortably and read for a couple of hours and a little hairy skin on that deck won't hurt as far as glam factor is concerned. I love the globe on the table beside the window, nice touch really, I don't know about you but I love globes and maps... and on the walls are pages from a book, drawings really. I'm not much on reading while sitting straight on a chair, but that old Danish chair looks so cool and there are times when I like or need to underline some parts of what I'm reading and that table and chair is what I need. And I just love the abundant natural light coming from that window, beats any light fixture to illuminate what you're reading on a bright sunny morning.

Oh its definitely the pink settee that got my attention, maybe because I'm in such a mood to relax and take a little rest or that I am really loving some pink today but it really looks inviting, really perfect for a little carefree lounging. Oh and if I have a settee or pink sofa as long as this, I would definitely share it with some friends, you know, a space for the girls to gossip and chit-chat while eating home-baked cookies and drinking hot coffee or choco. But then again, you have to notice and love the white walls, the flooring, the chair, the rug, the mirror and yes the books...the books are sure to be interesting... on this lovely space.

( Click image to enlarge)So fab... Every piece in this fabulous living room is an eye-catcher... The lovely couch facing two chairs might be a traditional arrangement but the pieces makes it so chic and stylish and with the presence of that rich and opulent looking white rug below that frames these pieces there is gorgeous perfection. And by now I'm pretty sure your eyes already caught a glimpse of that comfy pink armchair on the corner and the gold chair on the lovely wall. And I'm so lovin' the soothing and colors used in this fabulous living room.

I love the eclectic design style used in this dining room. The two different pairs of chairs is lovely and might be the first thing one might notice in this dining room together with the glass-topped white round table but the chandelier above is stunning and the brick walls look perfect even in this kind of dining area, in fact I love the brick walls in here so much because it added a warm and charming feel to this eclectic styled space. And who wouldn't want that glass walls that is framed by arched bricks? The huge mirror also has stamped its presence in this lovely dining room. And if all that is not enough, they've also thrown in a billiard table for entertainment.

Wow!... I am so loving this neutral colored bedroom with a little touch of orange. I love the woods in here too, especially the antique headboard. I think a bit of antique in a room is really nice, gives the space a bit of soul and history. And the wood bench that serves as table between those two comfy chairs is pretty cool. The walls are Seapearl by Benjamin Moore, and I'm pretty sure by now you already noticed the mirror and the lovely clear vase in front of it and the lovely lighting. I just love the coziness of this bedroom. What are your thoughts on this bedroom? Please do share.

Oh I have so much to do today... I just wish I could just take a nap for a little while in this inviting hammock/hanging bed. It is lovely isn't it? A little romantic with a touch of whimsy. I love the surrounding, looks really cool, some kind of a hideaway or a little private place. Now I will have to take my nap here in my little virtual hideaway...
This bedroom is so cool, I even find it dreamy...yes dreamy. It is rustic, fresh, and elegant and I love it. The brick wall is softened by the crisp white sheets and the lovely chandelier above provides elegance, and the two side tables and lamps provide a little symmetry making this bedroom pleasant to the eye. And notice the varying textures in this room, so good.

Oh this craft room/ home office is drool worthy:) well, at least for me. I'd love to hide away in there and just let my creativity pour in large amounts, now that would be a good way to waste some precious time. I love how the shelves are used, not only for storing but also for displaying those photos, buttons, glitters, and others colorful craft items. I love the way the swatches are being hanged and the table is really spacious, a must for serious craft making. And did you see the lovely reminder there? Live and Love...

What's not to love? you may say...Yeah, but with all its wonderful attractions and features I really can't put my hand as to what I love best in this outdoor space.

I've really had a stressful day today, I mean blog-wise. My previous posts for this blog was filled by spam comments and I've spent my day deleting then and I really hope that I've deleted the last of them. Why would somebody do such a thing? Oh I really hope that this blog won't be closed because of those spam messages, that would be such a bummer to start the year.
I'm leaving you gals an inspiring image above, a place to chill out, relax the nerves, and spend a few moments to contemplate, read a book, and maybe sip some leftover wine from New Year's eve party.

This Christmas Tree looks nice, fresh, cool and lovely. Love the idea of having a tree by pool and probably a Christmas celebrated by the poolside too. Children would definitely have so much fun in the pool during Christmas time, I know my son would, but of course if you live in a snowy place this idea could just be a dream... but just the same it is still so much fun to decorate outdoor spaces for the holidays with or without the snow, makes the home much more cheerful and festive.

I did a bit of blogsurfing today and boy does almost everyone in the blogosphere is into Christmas decorating already. And why not? We could already feel the chill and everywhere we go decors abound. I love this living room from Living Etc. magazine's December 2010 issue.
A mid-century Modern Narnia with a pull-out-the-stops mural as a backdrop to a shimmering icy tree. Lay a powder-snow-soft rug for the perfect Christmas morning scene. -
Living Etc.I just love those Arne Jacobsen leather Swan Chairs, perfect for the snowy Christmas theme. And did you notice the wire design side table? I did, the one with the vintage silver goblet with small turquoise bow, it is so fab. Speaking of the turquoise bows, the turquoise bows on the Wall Winter Scene wallpaper mural is an eye-catcher and of course so is the lovely mural plus the frosty spray on the windows makes one feel the spirit of the season right away. The grand Christmas Tree with its gorgeous silver baubles is the heart of this Snowy Christmas themed living room. And the Camana Ecru Rug is gorgeous, I'd be glad sit or lie in there while opening my Christmas presents.
My heart skipped a bit when I saw this lovely bathroom. Oh everything in it is perfect. From the white tub and its lovely faucets to the lovely chandelier that would provide warm lighting for night baths and relaxation. I'm in love with the rough flooring of this bathroom, for sure I would not slip and it gives a rustic and cozy feel. And a little veranda on a bathroom? Why not?
I heart this room. This colorful white bedroom, (I know if its white, it must not be colorful but this one is) is what I really want and need right now especially that my cough and colds are on a high. The white walls, ceilings, and marvelous white floor really made this room so very relaxing and the colorful elements inside it especially the fabrics makes you feel the sunny and fresh vibe of this bedroom. And I love the lamps, especially the reading lamp beside the fab round green pillow. I love reading before sleeping, and yes, sometimes even when I have cough and colds I read before sleeping. The chic chair, the lovely tables, the simple painting, and especially the blanket makes this white bedroom so lovely and so inviting. Actually, this white bedroom is my kind of bedroom these days.
Wow! what a view. If I have a view like that while posting on my blog, I think I can write really cool stuff that would dazzle even the smartest one in blogosphere:) Okay the table could be a little bit wider because I love working on a wide space, too many papers and knick knacks around my desk, oh but I definitely love the bookshelves on both sides. And the tufted chair puts a little glam on this home office plus the pink flowers puts a touch of warmth and coziness. Actually, flowers are welcome in every place of my house because wherever there are flowers the place becomes more inviting. The only downside I can think of if I have a view like this is that I could spend hours staring out and not be able to do a thing at all.

click image to enlarge I just love how the reds are popping in this blue and green dining room. The chandelier and the lamps are so gorgeous I really would welcome them in my own home. And reds really look good with white, I think we all learned that already when we were in grade school learning about the flags of different countries. The wenge finished dining table is also a presence, it is simple yet sturdy looking, I actually like that in dining tables. The dining chairs are so lovely having two different upholstery pattern for front and back that matches the color of the walls and curtain. Oh I still can't get enough of the reds in this dining room.

I love everything about this chic and cozy living room. Nice floors, comfy sofa, splendid light fixtures especially the chandelier above, lovely rug, its spaciousness, its white walls and ceiling, the elegant design of the wallpaper and of course the smart and skillful interior designing done to come up with this immaculate living room.
