It's Complicated

 I recently saw the movie It's Complicated and fell in love. No, not with Alec Baldwin (although, he did look pretty cute in the movie) but with Meryl Streep's house in the movie. I want to live there, yesterday!  : )

 I love Spanish-style homes plus the gigantic front yard and swing... Perfect!

Such a pretty hallway... all the light, the arches. I love the floors. Wide plank wood floors make me happy.

Such a fun and comfy room.

Love, love, love the kitchen.

 I want the headboard so badly!! If anyone knows where I can find it let me know. : )

Deep In The Heart of Texas

While decorating my soon-to-be-born baby's nursery, I've been browsing Apartment Therapy and Ohdeeohmy bed! for cool, modern inspirations.  Today, I found these fantastic pillows, one of which I would love to have on.


You can find your state (and even customize the color and where your heart lies) at Love, California on Etsy.  This would actually make a perfect gift for my sister and her husband- two Texans living in California.  Nothing like getting some Christmas shopping done early!

Modern And Elegant Bedroom Collections From Gautier - give you fresh decorating ideas

Gautier is a design company founded in 1958. We found some really nice bedroom arrangements on their site which we hope will give you fresh decorating ideas. Most of them are simple, sober and elegant, with wooden furniture and stylish carpets to go with it. The color mix goes from mild to fresh, but the overall effect is always pleasing. You will rarely see strong colors – the green and red pillows are an exception, but with a lovely effect. Flowers and paintings make the interiors lively and also help personalizing every room. Small details and decorative items such as bottles and tea cups really manage to make a difference. We also like the floor lamps and the night stands. Enjoy!

Palm Island Home Sold For $11,950,000


Palm Island in Miami Beach is one of South Florida's finest communities. Centrally located, it takes only 10 minutes to drive to the Miami International Airport, and 5 minutes to drive to world renowned South Beach, aka SOBE.

Recently, a luxury home on Palm Island sold for $11,950,000. The property, located at 55 Palm Ave. is situated on a lot measuring 30,000 square feet, with 100 linear feet of water frontage. The restored 8 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms house, is very spacious with more than 12,000 square feet of living space, and boasts 12 feet high cathedral ceilings, and beautiful views of the intercoastal water way.

Most noteworthy is that the property was previously purchased in 2003 for $2,900,000 and then again in 2004 for $3,400,000. The 1920's house was subsequently restored with a 10,000 square feet addition, and sold once again -- for a whopping profit. Could prices in Miami be climbing again -- not, or does the new owner know something that the rest of us don't? Is this sale a precursor of a once again active and thriving Miami real estate market? The next 12 months or so should bring some answers.

Roman's Top Ten Countdown # 7

Hi Everyone! This next one took me a while because I didn't know what was worth the #7 spot. The Shi Shi Table (#049651; $859) is a mirrored gem of a table and is definitely a glamorous addition to your home.
The curved legs of the table is what makes this an outstanding piece, in my opinion.
