Having a case of the Mondays?  I know… it happens.  One cure that always works for me… SHOPPING!!!  Right now, I’m on the hunt for a new, chic, statement-making floor lamp for our living room.  Here are 6 options I’m considering.  Of course I love them all, so you’ll have to help me decide…

So… do you have a fave?  Which one should I choose?

Call me trendy (lol), but I love coming across details that cross over from interior design to fashion.  Today it’s all about the bumble bee.  If you’re like me, you’re terrified of the little buggers (and will scream at the sight), but that doesn’t mean you can’t love them as a style detail.

Any insect details that you’re bugging out over?

So… life has been crazy lately.  A little drama at my day-job and just “real-life” caused me to take an unexpected hiatus… but not to worry… I’M BACK!

I thought there was nothing more appropriate for my homecoming than a new installment of Here & Now and today is all about getting in the 4th of July spirit.

I love this idea.  So simple and effortless, but so cute!
