chic and budget friendly chair

marie chair from home decorators ($399)

homegoods find!

The roomie and I needed a small armchair for the apartment and we scored big at homegoods yesterday. This little lavender chair with tufting and nailhead was only $270 and it's surprisingly comfortable.

I haven't had a chance to read all the articles yet, but here are some of my favorite images so far from Lonny's fourth (eco-friendly!) issue. Michelle Adams' new apartment is very pretty - I love the mix of vintage pieces, plus gray and yellow is one of my favorite color combos:

bright on white

I love this cute striped chair (the L'An V Marquise from Roche Bobois) and it got me thinking about color... and specifically all white painted rooms that encourage vibrant furniture, fabric and accessories to really pop. Too much color can be overwhelming but when backed by crisp white walls and trim, a mix of brights can be fun, fresh and modern.

A few fun bright furniture pieces and accessories:

I was online looking for a cool leather arm chair when I came across this 'lil beauty. Vintage and worn in... I die. Too bad it's all the way in the UK.
