The Call of the Wild

I feel like I could get away with a pad like this if I were a super spy, or maybe a superhero, or possibly even a high-priced call girl. You know, white, simplistic and chapstick-wearing by day, colorful, patterned and red-lipstick-rocking by night. Hey, don't judge - a girl's gotta make a living. And with a lair like this, apparently it's a good one. Word.

Bits of Whimsy

Rain fell on the desert today and it finally feels like fall. I love gloomy skies every now and then, but I must say that my mostly white house looks a little pale in the shade. I think if I were to face cloud cover more often than not, I would definitely add more color to my life! And twinkle lights. Definitely twinkle lights.

Coming Up Poppies

I've always loved the combination of red and blue together. I am Swedish, after all. I also fell in love with this great fabric by Swanky Swell immediately and knew it warranted a board built around its prints and colors. I picture it in the form of pillows on an all-white couch, of course.
