Home Decor & Spots Galore

My best friend Elizabeth is the Queen of home decor-she makes Martha Stewart look like a novice! Her passion is interior design and I hope that she follows her dream one day and helps those with lacklustre decor (like me) transform their space into a magical land.  Last night, the boy and I were at her place celebrating her boyfriend's birthday.  I took this opportunity to snap some outfit shots by her Christmas decorations (I was going to pass them off as my own, but alas I am too honest!)


With my Naughty/Nice pillow from Elizabeth :)

I do own a lint brush if you were wondering but cat hair is just an accessory to my outfit!

 Outfit
Skirt- Bettie Page (part of a 2-piece outfit)
Shirt- Thrifted
Sweater- Smart Set
Boots & Purse- Aldo
Necklace- Vintage
Bracelet- A SweeT, Beverly Hills

The boy thought these were fake gifts for decor but these are in fact real and beautifully wrapped!

Who would have thought that simple bows could add so much?

The Charlie Brown tree wish he had this much swagger!

  6. I haven't even decorated yet. Your house looks so chic. I love the little golden tree. I want one to hang cute little bird ornaments on. I have been obsessed with bird, and butterfly ornaments this year.

    your christmas decor looks really great- it's simple and really clean, yet very festive. take THAT martha stewart! that's a really great idea to put little bows around bc it is a good bargain decoration choice, too!

  8. Thanks everyone although I have to give credit to my BFF- this is her decorated house (I thought it would make a great photo opp!) Shybiker- I asked her and she would love the company but unfortunately she'll be back home in NJ- maybe next year? ;)

One of my daily joys is reading the lovely comments you leave. It may take a day or two (or three, depending on how hectic life gets!) but I will stop by your slice of the blogosphere soon! xo Emily
