Decorating

So, I've finally started decorating my apartment.

I would RATHER spend money on clothes and food but I do think it's NICE (notice I didn't say necessary) to decorate your space so that it is warm and "homey", whatever that means to you. 

I should mention that I actually LOVE to decorate. Love love love. I never said I don't like to decorate, I just don't like to put my credit card numbers in the box at checkout unless it's for a pair of Louboutins.

With all of that said.....below are my inspiration photographs (that I took home and put in front of Fiance who immediately said "but they aren't the same"....he's very literal).

I will try and post photos of the final product. When that happens.

Flor carpet tiles are so fun. I designed the hallway around the above  carpet and purchased  8 of them for a runner.
2 wide by 4 long

I have this console from Ikea already

I put up 6 black and white photographs of  NYC along the wall above the console.

NOW I NEED

1. A Louis XVI chair EXACTLY like this one
