Soft Colours

This week this soft toned home caught my eye.  Just one big question.  How in the world do you keep a place like this looking so clean and glamorous.  You can just tell that a teenager doesn't live here.  Tonight we're dealing with spilled pop all over his bedroom rug - despite a strict no eating or drinking in the bedroom (unless it's water) policy.  What is with teenagers and breaking the house rules.  It drives me crazy.

Miscellaneous Inspiration

With this flu getting me down, I decided it was time for some inspiration.

 

 

Jane Fonda - seriously no matter what you may think of her (and I've read her book which I found a fascinating read - truly inspirational)... this woman looks incredible for her age.  Sure photoshop helps but the core beauty is sill there and that is hard to do - I speak from experience.

  

 

My plans for kitchen upgrades are now off the table - simply can't afford the new counter tops and cupboards I want at this time and I refuse to compromise until I can so I do without.

 

A little outdoor bling

 

I'm so ready for winter to be over with already.

 

 

 

You can just feel the glamour in this room.

 

Perhaps somewhere in Paris.

Inspiration for my perfume - I think it's time for another new scent.  Some of mine have been around too long.

 

Love this idea for organizing my bathroom. So pretty.

Grooming for the Holidays

This week is Christmas Party week for me.  Lunches, Cocktail parties, and some serious Christmas shopping and decorating.  I need to spend this weekend just getting ready.

 

 

 

Touches of Gold & Black

This table setting looks so glamourous to me.  It makes me want to throw on my black velvet gown, elbow length gloves, diamonds and tiara.  Ok maybe not, but it's beautiful to admire during this dull grey time of year.
