An Older, More Mature Me.

I am getting so darn old (25) that I am beginning pondering my pad... should it reflect my new found maturity?  Here is a piece I found that can update my place:







This chair from UO would look great in a pair with a little table inbetween.





Ok... this pouf doesn't scream maturity, but I guess neither do I.  Also from UO, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this.  Perfect for stuffing in a corner and breaking out when a group of people are over.  Comfy and fun... that's my style!



I love this C&B wine cabinet because its multi functional and attractive.  This is something I'd consider putting on that blank wall in my living room.  It has lots of storage and doesn't have to serve as a wine bar only... i'd consider putting some books ontop and it can work as a desk as well.







This is the wall I'm talking about (between the door to the kitchen and the window). 





I guess it would look like this... but good :)






This is a pic I found on Apartment Therapy which shows a bar in a living room.  I like how she put the shelf on top, although I'd love to put this mirror:







This is from 2Modern and can feature tea lights all on the bottom.  Nick loves candles, we always have them lit at home and I this would be a great addition over the wine cabinet.





A tall leaning desk is also a good idea for our small space.  Right now we don't have any desk or office space.  Nick is a student and this could be helpful for him while studing or writing a paper (I'm sure doing it in front of the TV isn't the best idea babe ;-)


I hope to make some of this happen in 2010!

Light My Fire

I'm newly obsessed with fireplaces... or faux fireplaces.  The holidays are right around the corner and I'd love a quaint (faux) fireplace to hang our xmas stockings on.  In the meantime, maybe I should purchase this fun, fake cardboard one from Urban.

Born To Run- Follow up

This Sunday was the New York City marathon.  While my friends and I had some early morning cocktails at The Gaf on 1st Ave at 88th St, my very bestest friend Roe was running a tortourous 26.2 miles.  Wearing the Nike ID's I customized for her, she ran her heart out and finished at 3 hours and 54 mins... incredible!

O-M-G LOUBOUTIN & BARBIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Soooooooo, can you tell how excited I am by the one million exclamation points above? It seems that Barbie's big five-oh is approaching and to celebrate Christian Louboutin is creating a new pump for her to rock. The designer, imfamous for the red sole, was quoted saying, "Barbie needs to wear great shoes because every girl needs to wear great shoes."  Only thing is he also said he wanted to slim her ankles down... don't know how I feel about that, aren't Barbie's proportions already incredibly impossible?

Shoe Of The Day


BCBG

**Update: on my way home from CB2 (I got that Bridge art) there was a Mother/Daughter duo sitting across from me on the R train.  They kept staring at me, I figured it was because of the huge ass painting I was lugging around on NYC transit.  Then I saw the Daughter whisper, "Her shoes are really cute".  HAHAH.

Eighty Third

Here are the first few pics of the new abode. Our apartment is definitely a work in progress, but it has felt like home from day one and we love it!



Still in love with NYC


This head caused so much commotion,
I love when it wears Nicks Yankees hat :-)



The Zebra from Bahamas


The Frigidaire

I Left My Heart In San Fransisco

CB2 is my mecca. I die over this store, literally. I saw the art below and instantly knew it was meant for our apartment. Convincing him would be my challenege.


The convo went something like this:
him: what am I looking at?
me: ummmm, the art
him: i love it
me: great!!
him: how much is it?
me: ummmmm
him: ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS?
me: NO!!! Two fifty
him: ok!

Now I get to purchase this lovely peice of art to hang above our two red suede chairs! The peice is Matthew Lew's architectural perspective of the Golden Gate as viewed from Fort Point bridges six across in large digital mixed media format.  Would I have perfered a NYC bridge, yes, but I look forward to the day where I can visit SF and see the bridge myself.
