Thoughts?

Thoughts on this paint color on the wall?? Is it blue? Is it grey? Is it the perfect blueish grey for my bedroom??

Curtains

I have never been a big fan of the thick heavy velvet drapes in houses because I can only picture them in deep rich colors in a mansion with gorgeous flooring and huge dramatic windows... but I digress.. found these on West Elm (I know I promise to stop mentioning it) and love the bright color and the little satin looking detail at the bottom that changes the whole feeling of them...

P.S.~ Also love the fun circle sheer behind it

Thoughts

I found this picture while perusing through the Bayou Contessa and realized this exactly the same sort of color pallet/feeling I would like for the master bedroom. I love the whole feeling. Mostly muted blues with white and chocolate brown accents. As I told Steph I'm trying to give it a little luxury by having silk drapes (which as soon as I get one of each of the 3 I love I will post the pic) and rich chocolate furniture but also having a soothing/comforty/peaceful feel with the linens and the accessories throughout. I hope this makes sense to all of you :)

I have almost no furniture in the new house... yet I am finding all sorts of pillows to put all over the place!!! Pottery Barn has a ton of throw pillows I am totally in love with....

Fell in love with the Ramona by Jimmy Choo about 3 weeks ago... and finally have gotten around to posting it. It's bright shiny and red... a perfect fit for the first post of the new year!
