made my heart melt monday

here are some images that are making my heart melt on this last monday of january

enjoy

i usually hate brown walls (way overdone in my home home state)

but this deep, dark, rich chocolate wall color is striking - plus that island is amazing!!

my hubby and i love taking spontaneous road trips, our car rentals are never this cool but this photo 

captures how i feel driving through beautiful east coast towns! hands up!!

i love love love this candid of this little girl taking her time to admire art.

take your time little one and enjoy!

the coloring and use of paint in this kid's bedroom is the right amount 

of soft and calm! loving the mismatched beds.

i'm a light sleep but a heavy dreamer...this sums me up!

this image is hilarious! "fortune 500 company not a lemonade stand"

some people hate comic sans i guess...

this is fabulous interior styling!! rabbits?! yes!

i love new york city more and more everyday!

wishing i could have attended fashion shows as a little with my mama 

like the mother and daughter in this photo.

i used to have a pup who hated bath time too...

my dream casual outfit! i looooove this look!!

and finally, be kind for everyone you meet is 

fighting a hard battle. this is so true! you never know what people are going through or hiding on

the inside so always be kind!

xoxo 

i hope you loved these images and

i hope you have a fabulous start to the week!

triangle sally

eye inspired: interior stylist lo bjurulf

 i'm happy it's friday even though it's wet and rainy

but what makes me really happy is that i've been 

eye inspired

[seeing something with your eye that inspires the living daylight out of you]

before i've even had my breakfast!

so who has me all giddy and inspired?

stylist lo bjurulf!!

a lot of people call themselves stylist these days...

 putting an open book on a bed or a purse next to a chair isn't the kind of styling that has me inspired!

lo mixes and matches pieces that i would never think about about placing next to each other and they always come out looking fabulous. 

i am completely in love with those two hanging fringe pendants!

i love the grandfather clock next to the gold tom dixon pendant light,
i also love the detail in the orange spray painted number 8.

all hot pink ceiling and walls is fantastic...
gives the space so much personality!

loving the mix of furniture with the strips of wallpaper

i always love the random mix of old chairs at the same table

clean and white with pop of blue, yellow and black!

jaime hayon settee looks great in that space

i've seen this image of the rainbow kitchen cabinets many times but never
knew who was behind it until now

great mix...vintage chair with vintage floral wallpaper

i've had this bedroom in my inspiration file for a looong time now, i love love love
the yellow splash of paint over the window. not typical that's why i love it!

i hope lo has inspired you like he has me!

happy weekend
