Le Chambre

As my departure date for France is getting closer and closer, I am getting so curious about what where I’ll be living will look like! I already know that my apartment is in the historic area of town, close to (or right above) all the shops, restaurants, and bars. Rumor also has it that there’s a piano in my bedroom – sweet!

To quell the curiosity a bit, I’ve been looking at bedrooms on Marie Claire Maison. If you haven’t already been browsing this website, you should! It’s easy enough to navigate around even if you don’t speak French, and the pictures are so great to look at!

Which bedroom would you choose to live in? I don’t think I could decide!

Up, Up, and Away

It’s 32º here in North Carolina, and has been cold for wayyyy too long! As I’m sitting here in fuzzy sweatpants with a hat on my head, I can’t help but swoon over the pictures from Brazil posted on Garance Doré and the Satorialist.

So sunny and colorful, not to mention sexy… makes me wish I was there!

On that note, however, I should tell you that I’m about to set off on an adventure of my own. I’m headed to Montpellier, France on January 18th for the next few months. I’m sooo excited – and I think it’s going to be a great thing for my blogging, too! I’m still trying to figure out how I want to balance this blog, and my travel blog, ich bin blair. Until now, I used this blog for shopping and design, and my travel blog for, well – travel. But it seems to me like when you’re living in France, everything becomes tangled up. My travels will open doors to new worlds of fashion, design, and just beauty in general… so we’ll see how that affects my blogs!

Stay tuned! : )

Hot off the Press

Wish this sunny apartment from the January Anthropologie catalog were mine!

It’s so casual, yet elegant at the same time. Definitely sophisticated.

What does January have you wishing for?

More Anna Spiro

Like I said in an earlier post, after seeing the inside of Anna Spiro’s home on Coco+Kelly, I had to see more. Well, here it is… straight from Anna’s blog!

I love the trellis design above. As you might see in the coming days, I went a little crazy with it in my own room before I even realized!

Amazing Interior Style

Here are picture’s from Vogue Living Australia of Anna Spiro's home via Coco+Kelly. This style is so right on with what I love that I had to share these pictures right away. My only complaint is that I want to see more!

As Summer Fades into Fall…

I’ve been hiding out here:

While I’m somewhere where it seems like summer will never end, the fall catalogs and look books are not waiting for the leaves to change:
