Down the rabbit hole...

I have to admit, after putting pictures from Milan on the blog, I wanted to savor the moment
 for as long as I could and not updating and seeing it as the most current thing here
 calmed me down, because I really didn't want to leave...

But things are moving forward and now I'm getting used to my new routine and learning a lot.
And since there is no photographer in sight (the boyfriend is absent and my super
talented Karen is in Milano :)) ) there was no way for me to document my outfits,
even though they were quite interesting for the last week or so...I guess I will have to recreate.

For now I will concentrate on what still takes lot's of my time and it's decorating...
Maybe this blog will soon reincarnate as a design blog?
 (I don't think so but I myself started to follow many many design blogs as a result)

Fresh flowers I buy every week. I started doing this when I was living in Milan.
 Flowers always cheer me up :)

Vintage wallpaper that was given to us by a friend for a door restoration project. 
These were the leftovers that I didn't feel like throwing away.

These pictures (second one is in the image below) came from my grand grand mother. 
I have no idea where she got them from and how old they are, 
but I'm sure glad that I had enough brains not to ruin them when 
I got them at 12 years old. 
The pictures are printed on what looks like silk and they are pretty amazing!

I always felt that Laduree packaging is too good to throw away. 
It is part of my bedroom decoration now :)

The pink chair has a neon friend in shape of this ultra bright orange fabric that is soon to become a skirt and hopefully a small pillow as well...

Vintage doorknobs from the 60's I ordered on Ebay. 
Yet to install them on the doors, but I love them so much!

Some goodies I brought from Milan. 
The bra is just too pretty to keep in the closet :)
The rabbit ring is another cheap and great find at my favorite accessories 
shop in Chinatown, close to where I lived in Milan.

Hope I will soon be able to take some outfit pics...

Have a great week!!!
