eye candy {italian rustic}

One of my co-workers is vacationing to Italy next week and to say that I am jealous is an understatement. All of her talk about the amazing food and plans they have are most certainly making me want to jump right inside the book Italian Rustic.

home tour {elsa peretti}

The creations of elsa peretti are the epitome of organic and simple design. So it comes as no surprise that her retreat outside of Barcelona embodies those qualities as well. I am completely drawn to the cozy sensibility. Hmm...wonder if she would rent it to me for the off season.

eye candy {contemporary country}

This past weekend I decided it was finally time to get a library card and see what the local library had stocked in the interior design section. I was thoroughly impressed and came home with many lovely hardbacks but was most impressed with Contemporary Country--especially these lovely masterfully mixed style dining areas on its pages.


Are you a fan of this cozy yet sophisticated style?

a little bit country

There is something so romantic about an event in an old barn that smells of hay or in a wide open field. Sepia and cream create lovely backdrop for an event in such a setting.

Do you think this look is overdone or do you still think it is an ideal event setting? Be back in bit!

a country christmas

Just when I thought I was running out of holiday inspiration I came across this incredibly simple country holiday decor in County Homes & Interiors. The simplicity of the decor has a very romantic and charming appeal.
