decor | sheepskin

For a person that doesn't love fur, I sure do love sheepskin (faux, obviously). I have a faux sheepskin rug in my online shopping cart of almost every single furniture site I frequent.

I just can't seem to think of a place that WOULDN'T look better with a sheepskin rug nestled somewhere within it. It's got that modern/cozy vibe that everyone is after these days. What's more modern OR cozy than a great faux fur? Target's version just may have me "Checking Out" soon! What a deal!

Inspiration | Girly camping

I read an article a couple months ago about using retro-camping as inspiration for decorating a living room. The idea sounds crazy, but the room had awesome rustic details, Hudson Bay blankets, even a cool lighting fixture that looked like a tee-pee.

This spread in {Rookie Yearbook One} reminded me of that, except with a super girly twist. Patches, sashes, collared shirts, berets - maybe I won't be following this fashion receipe to a tea, but I'm definitely going to draw inspiration and use it... somewhere... at some point... right?

Sometimes cataloging things you love "just because" can come in handy for those days when it seems like nothing is exciting you.

white washed

Ever since beginning the quest in search of the perfect wedding venue, my appreciation for white walls and hardwood floors has strengthened ten fold!  Spaces like this are hard to come by in my hometown.

Maybe it's because I believe great art always begins with a blank canvas, or maybe it's just because I grew up in a house with wall-to-wall wallpaper, but I find a simple and modern space so inspiring. White, bright, and light!

inspiration | Matchbook Magazine Tumblr

Whenever I need to find cool, vintage-inspired images, my first stop is always {Matchbook Magazine's Tumblr Page}.

Not only do they have images taken directly from their magazine (which focuses mainly on interior design and fashion), they also have a plethora of magazine scans, and old pictures that seem to inspire what they put in their magazine.

Think "Kate Spade" mixed with "Domino Magazine" - it's a total happy place for me.
