Home Decor!

It's been about 5 months since we moved into our new apartment, and things we had in our old apartment don't really go in the new one. I refuse to paint the walls because painting them back when we move out is the worst, so I'm trying to find easy ways to add colour to our rooms.

I have been on a mad hunt for a new duvet cover. At first I wanted white....then we got a puppy and I decided that, that was probably not a great idea! So, I went on the West Elm website and found a beautiful purple pintuck duvet cover {shown below}. I fell in love, but with shipping and handling it was just too much for me to spend right now.

Organic Cotton Pintuck Duvet Cover - $145.75

So, I headed to the new Bouclair Home store that just opened up in our area, and found a duvet that looks exactly the same for half the price! It looks amazing against our chocolate brown furniture and neutral headboard and walls. 

Akira Collection Duvet Cover & Shams - $99.00

adding COLOUR to your....LBD!

I recently purchased this exact dress from Jacob and I absolutly LOVE it...the fit is perfect, the length is perfect {for work} and the price was amazing $69! BUT.....it is a black dress, and even though fall is quickly approaching I still want to be able to add colour to an otherwise plain dress....!  Below are a few looks I've tried recently to make this amazing dress a little more amazing! What do you do to add colour to your LBD?*
