Library+Bedroom. Books+Beds. Charming+Smart.

.Bedroom as Library as Bedroom...

Bookshelves filled with books ~

an interesting, worldly and cozy-warm way to design a bedroom.

Everyone should get on this band wagon!

This rustic, sophisticated room with its vintage books is awesome...

You can never have too many books, right?

(If you do, visit your library and see if they take donations.)

Have a great day!

Understated Elegance, Cool and Sophisticated

A  confident, secure person must live here. 

That is the feeling in the rooms I'm showing you today.

This is understated elegance, sophistication, and beauty... 

These rooms are The Best:

Well, not a room, but definitely calm, cool and collected...

Wow:

For many of us, perhaps the bohemian, shabby chic look is perfect for relaxation, a way to escape the rigid strictures of life. But for the rest of us, getting rid of clutter and color "noise"is the goal. We want  a very structured, very simple yet refined look that reflects unpretentious elegance, sophistication, and calm.

These rooms show us how it is done.

Have a Cool, Calm, Collected Day!

Black is Awesome - Beautiful

Black  is what we want for that punch or lift ...the sleek, well-groomed room.

Yesterday I featured the chic combination of Black and Green.

Now I'm looking at Black as the "chic" of the room with any color,

even at Christmastime!

  

                  

 I am loving this trend...

 I re-did my very "girly" daughter's room in black + white. I knew it would be good, but  I was amazed at how gorgeous it looked. My daughter and her friends just love it!

Chic, Intelligent, and Peaceful rooms! 

I hope you enjoyed them and that you are inspired!

Have a tres chic day!
