Eclectic Essentials

Image via Design Love Fest

I'm almost positive I've had this Pinterest image pinned and tucked away for just about six months now. I LOVE all of the bright and bold colors that come together to make this mix and match living room have such a cozy eclectic feel.  All of these pieces are very easy to at a budget friendly price - Especially since they are not all part of a matching set! I'm all about mixing and matching recently... {see yesterday's post} This look would be great in a small apartment space whether it's a New York loft or just a quaint little studio apartment in the city somewhere, smaller sofas and high legged chairs and furniture pieces are great for making a small space appear larger! 

Side Note: mint, navy ANNND gold..? Don't tempt me.

Moodboard Monday: Blue & White

I have a confession. I don't know where it came from but it hit me like a ton of bricks. I have a new obsession with blue and white paired together.  Sadly, theres a 99% chance I'm overreacting on this because I've been obsessed with ginger jars for I don't know how long. If you're unclear on my ginger jar obsession, you can check it out here, and here. But one thing that really made me take a double take was when I saw on instagram last week that Tory Burch had come out with a home line and let me tell you - they hit it out of the park with their blue and white decor!
