A Dreamhouse of my Own
Inspired by the Barbie dream house, I set out to select some of my dream furniture/decor pieces...things that would make me never leave the house, unless carried out kicking and screaming. My color palette: silver/gray, black, purple, magenta, and turquoise.
I dream of a really spacious L shaped couch...preferably with a GIANT ottoman. I basically want a bed with a couch back! Something that you'd fall asleep on without getting a wicked crick in your neck.
The coffee table above has been on my wishlist for a good 4 years now. It's broken up into several pieces that can come together in many different formations. The brilliant purple color makes it yummier, like a big hunk of rock candy. The X Rug is from the same online store, InMod, which is a little slice of heaven for me. Their rugs are like pieces of art, featuring different shapes and patterns. The long "Gossip" rug is one of theirs too...gorgeous! I also realize that the pod chair thing is ridiculous: $1,000+ for a chair that will NEVER be sat in? Let's call it art, baby.
And then...there's the cupcake end table. Oh yes...it's an end table made to look like a giant cupcake. Jellio makes the greatest custom furniture EVER! They have a cupcake seat, candy dots bench, and various gummy lamps. It reminds me to the whimsy of Willy Wonka...and I would LOVE to have many of their pieces. Someday.

My New PJ's!
Ever since I started working from home, I pictured me sipping tea and lounging in some adorable, yet stereotypically girlie PJ's. Thus, I was on a quest to find something that was a) cute and b) in plus sizes. After a bit of unfruitful searching, I found Frankie & Johnny pj's. They have tons of adorable prints in sizes Small-3X. After much deliberation, I selected the Sweetie print in lavender.

They arrived yesterday and I ran to go put them on (yeah, so it was 4pm...sue me). I couldn't stop staring down at the pattern. The flannel is amazingly soft and comfy, a concern I had with a non-stretch fabric. These are not cheap pajamas...but you absolutely get what you pay for!
If you are an avid PJ wearer...I recommend getting a pair...or 4!
