let's go shopping....

so i don't know about y'all but watching the news is totally depressing....constantly being reminded that we are in a major financial crisis makes me so sad. so i decided to do something to cheer up- going window shopping via 1st dibs- a one stop shop where i could spend all of my make believe money....

i think that this vintage NY subway sign is great and it will look fantastic playing off of my 1970 lucite and chrome barstools (some funky fabric and these would be bananas- ha, i had to do that for the zoe camp)!! and i can't go shopping and not buy something from lee, so in honor of that fab store pieces, i'm going w/ this tuxedo style, white leather, tufted sofa. oh man, i just found these fantastic 1960's auction paddles...those are so fun, i'll put those in my cart too.... wow, these green enamel lamps would look awesome on either side of my sofa and add a pop of color to my make believe shopping trip. oh and last but not least, i am buying this vintage sawhorse table...b/c if any of y'all need reminding, i want it so badly as my desk.....

WOW, its amazing how much better that makes me feel...if you are getting depressed from all of this crisis talk, take my advise and go window online shopping...so much fun to spend all of that make believe money!! now i just need to buy KW's imperial trellis for my walls and my day will be perfection!!

heavenly is a good word for it....

i am sorry i haven't been doing a lot of posts lately. life has been very busy. last week was filled w/ getting ready for one of our good friend's wedding. (i had no idea how long it takes just to find a dress...a friend and i devoted about 4 days to it!) we had such a wonderful weekend and loved being able to spend time w/ friends that we don't get to see that often.

but one thing that really sticks out in my mind right now (and mostly b/c my daughter and i are nursing a cold) is that Westin bed. i want to be back in it. why do hotel beds just suck you in? and no matter what, you can't recreate it. so that's why i googled that heavenly bed and if any one wants to give me $3,000, it can be mine....

so do you think its the double sheeting that makes you feel so good?? i think it also is having the bed made perfectly everyday. i am not good at making the bed (yep, unless you call and say you are coming over, my bed isn't made...terrible thing to admit, especially in my business)!
