just give me a motherfucking walking stick, a jaunty hat and i'm gone.
first we will sit and have coffee and croissant while we look over the local shopping guide..then we will each spend at least 1,000 dollars on sporty eurotrash outfits.
cartwheels.
showoff.
dream dream dream house.
dream house.
hope you can get outside today.
breathe in some freshness.
walk it off.
etc..
yesterday i took a long walk through one of my favorite neighborhoods and this is what i saw:
a japanese magnolia tree.
some pink trees.
what are they? not dogwood. not cherry blossom.
what then?
(**redbud yes...thank you rachel)
some hellebores.
a fiona.
has spring come to you yet?
we are lucky in georgia that way.
you should send me some pics of spring in your area.
i'll post the shit out of it.
images brought to you by my new iphone
i realize that lately all i provide for you are mood boards.
my mood boards.
and you may hate them.
or love them.
but that's really beside the point.
the point is i am super busy being decorator-ish.
i have no time here recently to plan exciting and funny blog posts for you.
my days are really spent working for (hold your vomit please) clients and eating entire sleeves of girl scout cookies.
yes, clients. yes, entire sleeves.
i's a decorator now.
at least people are paying me to make their houses prettier, or uglier depending on who you ask.
so without further adieu..
i give you:
"cozy, sexy, glam, warm, sparkly"
(at least that's what was asked of me)
main sitting area..
back wall area, just beyond the chairs is the kitchen..which is why there is nothing on the wall.
paint color is client's existing color.
adjacent to sitting area is a gallery wall/ hall:
so this wall/view is to the right of the sofa on the right.
there is an actual gallery (most people call it a hallway) separating the main sitting area and this little area.
still to come in this space is the fireplace wall.
and about a million more mood boards.
working girl farts,
today i am guest posting for nicole at sketch42 bc she just had a baby boy!!
so go over there and see my version of a boy nursery.
it is not this:
or this:
or for the love of frosting, this:
hint: you need alien money to afford it.
work...
a very lucky client will be receiving a lilac ceiling and yellow curtains
to say the least...
also there are porches on the brain:
those 4 in particular.
still on the brain from yesterday..
that hair cut..
pros:
1. super fast to style
2. look like an adorable elfin princess
cons:
1. major maintenance
2. potential for looking like someone who should be wearing "mom jeans"
NOT on the brain:
my doors.
steam has been lost and the thought of going in there and actually completeing them makes me wanna eat throwup.
that is all.
assessment:
anne hathaway don't need no james franco.
anne hathaway = tallest tree in the world.
when oprah speaks i cry. for no reason.
billy crystal is now asian.
RDJ and jude law are dating and i am ok with it...
big time.
melissa leo is the most annoying person on the face of the earth.
if the gooper sings one more time i will eat my own face.
christian bale owns one suit, shirt and tie.
the fashion overall was boring and too simple/plain.
worst:
nightgown
lace daisies?
messy bob?
fuck you.
great dress but she lost points for shoving her areola in my face.
the pope wants his outfit back.
corpse.
creature feature.
my favorites:
i was screaming "best dressed" at the tv, but here..
in this pic...not so much.
the hair was fabulosity.
she looks awesome.
period.
so awesome, i GOT my period.
shutthefuckup!
no one comes close to possesing the ability to wear a number like this.
the only person who took a risk.
and she looks beautiful.
look-
i know the dress is a little weird...what with the giant cut out circle and space commander sleeves..
but i think she pulled it off..
i mean the hair???
it's darling! and i never use the word darling.
she looks like an elfin princess on a spaceship.
that is my highest compliment.
i asked everyone in the room if i could wear this hair cut and not look like a soccer mom.
there was a resounding yes...but i think they are lying.
also..soooo happy the king's speech won.
spill it.
