What to Consider Before Buying a Sectional


There are plenty of options when deciding on the furniture you want to decorate your home with. The options are endless, and honestly it can be exhausting trying to find the perfect fit. A few months ago, I was in the market for new furniture. As a matter of fact, my old furniture was so embarrassing that I was shamed by a friend from keeping it. My search began about 6 months prior to my purchase, which gives you a good amount of time to compare your options.

Get Your Wallets Ready...Ikea's 2015 Catalog is Here

                                                                                                                                                                                                           
IKEA Catalog
My love for Ikea is attributed to my college roommate, who I shared my very first apartment with. Moving into our new apartment, she came hauling in the coolest looking furniture that had so many modern touches that I loved. Fast forward (too many years later), and I still admire a lot of Ikea's designs. 

When the 2014 catalog came out, I flipped through the pages so much that I couldn't flip anymore. After moving into the condo I live in now, I was so eager to decorate (I love my new place.), that I took a 30 minute trip to Ikea twice in one day. (Sad I know!) The 2015 catalog surely doesn't disappoint and sticks to Ikea's design style with affordable prices...

Painting Walls Black in Every Room



Black walls may not be at the top of the list for most popular wall colors, but there's a growing trend and I love it!

All of the pictures I've seen show that black is a little more versatile than it led on to be. Keep reading to see just how black can transform a space to look rich and sophisticated.

Scar Jo Goes Low


Celeb ladies continuously rely on sleek bobs to revamp their look or to give themselves a classic, timeless cut that is always stylish. 

Scarlett Johansson is no stranger to bob cuts. We've seen her rock them in the past on red carpets, but this one is simple, but sleek.

Of course the bob isn't the only thing that stuck out to me in this picture. That extra long rope chain is giving me serious Jay-Z tease. (He's always wearing them on stage.) Love that necklace!!

A Work of Art and Closet Envy




Just when you thought your closet...looked like a closet and not a dumping site, you get slapped with closet heaven envy. I can't say this is realistic, but it's the epitome of a lovely dream and those stairs are the gates to Heaven.


Kate Upton Stuns on Elle U.K.



Kate Upton is a modern day bombshell, but she has always given me the old Hollywood glamour feel. She's famous for her curves and beautiful face, but also for the many magazine covers she's snagged, specifically her Sports Illustrated covers.

It's Your Birthday: Jennifer Lopez



Dear Aging Gods,

If you can hear me, please let me age as gracefully as this woman. Amen.

Let's reflect on the fact that J-Lo turned 45 today. Not 29, not 35, but 45!!! And she looks amaze-ing! This busy lady has so many titles under her belt, I can't keep count. Let's see, there's American Idol judge, actress, musician, mom, dancer...I can go on and on!!! One title that is rarely disputed is Fashion Icon!! Over the years we have been privileged to witness some of the most daring looks come down the red carpet (Hello Grammys in Versace), and it doesn't stop there. 

Glamour, fashion forward, risk taker all come to mind when I think of her red carpet moments, but her on stage appearances are just as hot! Of course on American Idol her clothes were more laid back, but let's be honest they were feminine and eye-catching. Her fashion without a doubt is memorable. Let's take a look at some of her best looks!! 

Pristine, Clean Cooking

If someone asked me 5 years ago what style kitchen cabinets I prefer, I would have pointed them to something similar to what you see above. And honestly, I can say my taste hasn't diverted too far from that. There's something about dark cabinets that look so rich, especially when paired against a stark white.

Now if you asked me if I love white cabinets 5 years ago, I would have glanced at you with a look of disgust and said "Uh NO!!" But then again I was younger :( and a lot of my taste has changed when it comes to what I'm looking for in a home. Now that white has grown on me, I have begun to appreciate the clean, crisp look.

What Divorce?!?

As a huge (slightly obsessive) fan of the Carters, its only natural that I would use my first post as an excuse to write about them.

**wink**. 

When elevator gate opened its doors, Beyonce and Jay-Z became tabloid fodder. (But when are they not?!?)

Of course they have continuously dodged rumors in the past...(Hello surrogate rumors), but this one is different. The Carters have been notoriously protective of their image, making sure nothing was exposed, but the fight on the elevator made everyone question if there was trouble we had all overlooked.

Could Hip Hop's power couple be splitting? Will we no longer get to see adorable pictures of Blue on outings with her parents together? You mean, no more COLLABORATIONS?!? After almost losing sleep, (GASP), photos painting an entirely different picture save the day...

Click below for some reassurance that they're still "Crazy in Love". (Cliche I know...lol)
