Cool things file: Concrete Wall




Remember the post about my love to exposed brick walls? What if I tell you that you can achieve the same effect with cool and real looking wallpaper? Well, I was amazed when Renee from Eat.Live.Shop posted about this high quality vinyl wallpaper designed by Norwegian photographer Tom Haga. The Concrete Wall collections is available here. Pretty cool huh? I definitely want!
Pics from San Francisco coming soon ;)

Can you believe this is wallpaper?

Luxurious Russian Penthouse Apartment



Luxurious Russian Penthouse Apartment

Russian interior design studio Geometrix transformed the interiors of this next luxury penthouse into a surprising modern space meant to be enjoyed to its full potential. Featuring a combination of dark and light colour schemes, the interiors of this scrumptious penthouse call for a certain order in furniture arrangement. The interior designers created an extremely contemporary inside living space that extends on to the terrace for a full exploration of the panoramic views of Moscow. Situated high above the city, in the Triumph Palace, a 57-story apartment building in Moscow, the penthouse is compartmented into spaces that have many accents in common. Created as a unified space, the residence balances light and dark in a carefully planned manner. Large windows allow gorgeous, uninterrupted views of the Russian capital and the generous terrace extends the living space over the city.

My life file: Our Amazing Race


Today we are starting yesterday we started our amazing race around the world. Just 3 people, one team.
The pit stops? San Francisco, Auckland, Noumea, Pouembout.
The challenge? remain sane after managing to fly 20 hours around 4 countries with one baby, one stroller, 7 suitcases, one carry-on and 2 hand luggage.
The best side of the race is stopping 2 nights in San Francisco and 2 nights in Auckland to recharge our batteries and explore around (a little bit)
Wish me luck please! I'll need it!

PS: please forgive me if I'm not being consistent with my posts and if I don't visit your blogs for the next couple of days, I hope you understand ;)

Design file: Cococozy


I was so happy yesterday when I read that Cococozy's first home furnishings collection launched online. Ever since Coco shared that she was working on it I've been looking forward to see the collection and let me tell you that the line is sooo gorgeous. I've already fallen in love with a couple of items so make sure you go and check her shop and  blog, which I've been following ever since I discovered it ;)



Cool things file: Transparent Toaster



How cool and stylish is this transparent toaster? First of all I think it would look fantastic on your kitchen counter and secondly isn't it great to be able to check on your bread while is toasting?...no more burnt toasts!

Pretty and Chic Furniture for Smaller Spaces

We found this adorable line at the Las Vegas Market a couple of years back and we thought we share it with you.  They make really cute, adorable furniture that are smaller in scale --quite perfect if you have a small apartment or condo to furnish.   The furniture usually comes in neutral colors, which makes it easy to accessorize.  They are quite stylish and inexpensive.

Here are a few samples:



The occasional chair runs about $600, sofa is about $1500, chair about $300, bed about $1600. They have a huge web site that you can browse through here. If you need help with pricing let us know (Sunpan only sells wholesale). Shipping cost for furniture is usually high, so we don't recommend buying just one or two pieces. Usually shipping costs will exceed the price of the item.

New Silk Flower Arrangements for Spring

Happy Friday everybody!  It's finally looking like spring in LA this week.  OMG it's been the coldest, longest winter ever! 

We just got some new silk flower arrangements for spring.  Truthfully, we prefer fresh flowers over silk any day, but these look really close to being real, they'll make a pretty good substitute...








We'll be posting these up in our silk flowers section by this weekend so please check back with us then. In the mean time, have a fabulous weekend!
