Dividing Thoughts

So, lately, I've been really interested in room divider screens. I think they can be so gorgeous and neat for  breaking up a room. But they are also quite versatile. Here are some faves:


This one is very gorgeous, but it doesn't really serve a purpose besides looking pretty is a bit out of my budget.

( @ Plushpod $7995 )

This one is such a neat idea! I love the fact that there are corkboards, so convenient for hanging things up. PLUS. When you feel like rearranging (something I do a lot), it's easy to move around! So neat!

( @ Oriental Furniture $199 )

I loved this wood screen.

( @ Anthropologie $1298 )

I really like this white screen, with all the cut-outs. Very graphic and bold.

( @ Home Decorators Collection $349 )

Of course, being Asian, I have to include this Asian print screen. I actually like this one a lot too. Cherry Blossoms are gorgeous. Plus, this is much more in my budget.

( @ Home Decorators Collection $40.25 ) 

Finally, my personal favorite. Not sure where this screen is from, but I love how it looks in this room! This is some professional interior design gorgeousness.

Would you ever put room divider screens up in your house? Do you think they are effective, or simply there to look pretty?

Amanda Nisbet

Just found this gem of an interior designer, Amanda Nisbet! Her work can be found here.

Here are some of my favorites:

I love the coral walls. And the dark-stained shelves. Gorgeous organization. 

This porch is great too. I love the purple ceiling. I can definitely imagine coming home after work, and relaxing here with a book and some raspberry lemonade. (I'd consider putting a screen up, to keep out the mosquitoes though).

Japanese Simple Interiors

I love simple interiors. The Japanese definitely have it down to an art:

I love this bathroom! I would be lounging in it daily! Spa-like, it looks so calming and relaxing.

Reynaldo Gonzales

Reynaldo's apartment in New Orleans looks so modern and chic. I love this mirror in the room! The chandelier is great too.

Oh I love the colors of the wall here.

Gorgeous, gorgeous. The only thing is, doesn't make me think of New Orleans at all...

Color Day: Aquarmarine

Friday is Color Day.

Today, aquamarine. It's such a gorgeous color.

The reason my ears aren't pierced is because if they were....I'd be soo broke because of all the pairs of earrings I would have bought, then subsequently lost, or immediately forgotten about. This pair, because of its gorgeous color and excellent filigree design, I think would have made me hold onto them a bit longer...perhaps.

This pants are perfect for the HOT summer we're having right now. I love the pop of color!

I love this dress and photo! It's so gorgeous, and makes me want to have a winding staircase and a long train just so I could do this at home!

This kitchen is the best color ever! Nothing says "I'm ready to cook" like a dark aquamarine. I think that it really brightens up the kitchen, especially with those large windows! Who wouldn't want to cook there, enjoying the lovely morning sun shining through?

Thoughts on aquamarine this summer?
