My very own book nook...

Ever since I can remember, the one thing that I imagined my future home would have is my very own library or book nook. If we get the house that we've been eying, the mister and I are planning to turn one of the rooms into a library. Not an office with books or a guest bedroom with a book shelf, a room designed to hold our vast collection of books where one can curl up to read on a rainy day or any day for that matter. Here's some of my book nook inspiration:

As you can see, I'm really digging the color coded books.

Steampunk design for your home...

**Up until now, this blog has been mostly about fashion, art, wedding (as of late) and some personal. This week I'd like to introduce Tenacious Dee--Home Edition. I've never blogged about home design because frankly I had no interest in it. All that has changed now that Mr. Dee and I are in the process of obtaining our very first home. (fingers crossed) I'm gonna kick off this new home edition by making this week all about my home inspiration.**

Steampunk design appears to be very hard to pull off but when done right, boy it sure is rad!

Fresh flowers....

I've figured out how to:

1. Put my old boots that are worn to almost-shreds but I don't have the heart to throw away, to good use...and

2. Display fresh flowers in my apartment.

Score!

Take it to the max-i.....

Spring has finally sprung in these parts and in honor of this great event, I will be scouring the thrift stores this week searching for a few flirty and fun floral maxi skirts. Above is my inspiration.

Web inspiration....

{Pretty, pretty and more pretty}

As an aspiring web designer, I visit and bookmark my favorite sites and study everything about them. Providing inspiration lately are these 3 sites:

1. Kate Spade

2. Boden

3. Ready Made

Holy 90's round up.....

Waxing nostalgic of a time when florals and bold stripes were everywhere. Also, I've been all doped up on pain meds and watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer all day so yeah.....

One of the many reasons, I've been missing in action....
