Bedroom Makeover

Happy (waaaaaaaaaaay belated) New Years!

So I've been commissioned to decorate a friend's bedroom, which has gotten ME to start drooling over some possible makeovers for my own our (I guess I have to share it with the husband) bedroom!  Here's one of my bedroom makeover *on a budget* ideas:

1.  Headboard  2.  Nightstands  3.  Chest of drawers  4.  Wardrobe  5.  Sconces  6.  Wall Shelves  7.  Desk Chair  8.  Bookshelf/Desk

New Year's Outfit

1.  Helmut Lang Blazer  2.  French Connection Sequin Leggings  3.  Louboutin Pigalle Plato  4.  Valentino Earrings


Eyes:  1.  Lancome Gel EyeLiner  2.  Hourglass Angled Liner Brush  3.  YSL Luminzing Pen  

Face:  1.  BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfecter  2.  Dior Shimmer Skin 

Lips:  1.  YSL Rouge Lipstick

Nails:  1.  Deborah Lippman Glitter Nail

This is the outfit I'm planning to wear for New Years!  I know it seems like a lot of makeup but I love that glowing skin and eyes look with that punch of red lipstick.  I always love to wear dresses and skirts but I think I've gotten into pants this year and will be carrying that out in the new year.

For Your New Year's Bash

1.  Macarons  2.  Billecart-Salmon Rose Champagne  3.  Gold Log Candles  4.  Gold Flatware  5.  Gold Rimmed Dish  6.  Gold Rimmed Champagne Flute  7.  Party Streamers  8.  Snowflake Confetti  5.  Gold Dots Napkin



Bring some warmth to your New Year's Eve bash by going rogue rose gold!  I especially love small touches like the Billecart-Salmon rose champagne to add a hint of uniqueness and to separate yourself from other party throwers.  Add some colorful streamers with gold and silver accents to tie your party together and be the coolest kid on the block for the new year.

More Gift Ideas

1.  The Gift of Rejuvenation  2.  Scotch  3.  Waxed jacket  4.  Slim wallet to avoid the George Costanza phenomenon   5.  Personalized paperweight  6.  Happy socks

My personal pick would be the Suntory Yamazaki 18 year old single malt scotch (get it), because nothing tells a guy he's a baller than a very old scotch. Get it.  How can you go wrong with alcohol?!?  It's classy too!  But seriously, it's amazing and comes highly recommended.  Get it.

Gifts for the Girls

1.  Lovely notebooks  2.  Pleated scarf  3.  Adorable jewelry  4.  Monogrammed pouch  5.  Turban  6.  Friendship bracelets

I guess I'm a little tired of going on websites that suggest buying iPhone cases or jewelry worth thousands of dollars.  Well here's my wish gift list of items that would make some really fabulous treasures for the gals in your life.  And trust me, they won't leave you unconscious on the floor when you open next month's credit card statement (well, except for the Hermes scarf...).

Cozy Room

Chairs: Ikea / Lighting: Zuo / Table: Noguchi / Rug: Similar here / Curtains: West Elm 


1.  Loop Candelabra  2.  Geodesic Terrarium  3.  Indoor Fireplace  4.  Cozy Throw  5.  Beautiful Books



With the winter and holiday season upon us, it just makes me want to huddle up in a cozy room next to a fire and read a book.  I wanted to convert my home office into something more inviting, so here are my ideas.
