A beautiful, glamorous house to ring in the week

The home of Lizzie Bailey is sooo pretty, glamorous, clean, and crisp - I just had to share it with you right away. Bailey actually majored in English but found her calling as an interior designer while working (and doing a little photo shoot styling), at Better Homes and Gardens. As you can see, she's found her calling.




The horizontal stripes in the entry way is just great. A smaller space is a great place to go bold if there's a certain wallpaper or paint treatment you love but are too nervous to use in a large room. It helps create little nooks of interest.

The peaceful Lexington, KY home of fashion designers Badgley Mischka

You may know Badgley Mischka for their serious upscale women's clothes and wedding gowns, so I was surprised when I saw Moon Stone Farm, their retreat in Lexington, KY.
It's so peaceful and sparse - I'd have trouble leaving!

I'm a happy girl today because my boyfriend finally returned from his seemingly never-ending vacation to Chile. However, since it is rainy today, and, well, it's Monday - why not some gratuitous prettiness? Enjoy!
