quot;Street Style and quot; shop. Front facade.

















































"Street Style" shop. Front facade.

"Street Style" boutique de mode. La facade.

Love Life.

Simplify your life
Live one day at a time
Less is more
Slow down and take it all in...

Quality over quantity
Forget about the mess sometimes & be happy there's someone there to make it.
Don't worry
Paring down makes you feel free...


Take pleasure in the day to day
Appreciate the little things in life


Find beauty in every day things...
Don't click away the time

You never regret taking the time to do something nice for someone

They grow up before you know it



Keep your goals in mind but don't forget to appreciate what you already have...

Each day is such a gift to us and we should treasure its beauties: nature, our homes, our friends, our families...
Take nothing for granted. You will be happier, I promise.

A little girl drowned in the ocean this week while we were at the beach. I can't imagine how horrible it must be for her family right now & I'm heartbroken for them. Please say a little prayer & remember what's really important in your life. Don't take even one day for granted.

xoxo,

lauren

We’re always updating our website and making sure we provide the best service to our customers. Maintaining our products is key to ensure we keep out customers updated and while updating our products we discovered that the Joseph Anica is to be discontinued.

It’s a rather unique looking bed with a silver metal frame and white head end, it’s pretty slick and modern and there aren’t that many similar beds around, which makes it a real shame.

Saying that, we had a good look at our entire product range and found some similar looking beds to suggest to our customers. Joseph actually do similar beds and the Joseph Kava has the same modern style with a silver metal frame but features a dark head end.

If the darker wood doesn’t suit your bedroom, you may like the Joseph Arizona with its silver metal frame and black base.

You may also be interested in the Hyder Manhattan, although it doesn’t have the extra head detailing, it has a modern silver frame and a simple but contemporary design.

Why not take a look through our entire metal bed section and maybe you’ll find something else that catches your eye, as we have a great range of metal beds in different styles.

If it’s the Joseph Anica you’re really after, you’d better hurry up because you won’t find it anywhere soon!

One Day Tile

Lately I have been working on several kitchen and bath remodels which means I have spent a fair amount of time looking at tile. There are so many options out there I find myself daydreaming about what will go in my "one day" house. Will I go calm and elegant?
Or take a walk on the wild side?
Image HEREImage HERE
Or maybe ultra clean and contemporary....
Although if you know me, you know that I will probably have to incorporate something geometric. LOVE LOVE LOVE this tub surround and floor...

You don't have to go over the top though to make a statement. I love the way these kitchens use just a pop of blue to make a visual impact.

Images HERE, HERE and HERE (below)

I am thinking about incorporating this into a kitchen possibly using one of these...


Tile HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE
Of course, at the end of the day, my true dream kitchen looks something like this...
or this...
And this one is definitely the bathroom of my dreams....
What do you prefer when it comes to tile? Any favorites? Any dislikes?

Quiet Time- One Of A Kind


"God loves each of us as if there were only one of us."

Susie from So Blessed left this in a comment last week and I just loved it. All of us want to be loved, want to feel special and will search high and low to find that when God loves you right now, right where you are, just as you are.

It also reminds of this book we studied one time that talked about how God made you exactly the way you are, so when you are not happy with your appearance, etc. you are insulting what God made. I think about this a lot when I am critiquing myself in the mirror or comparing myself to others and find comfort in knowing God made exactly the way I am.

Matilde House - luxury home

Information from Ailtireacht Architects:
The existing two-storey return was at a scale not befitting such a large house with cramped internal dimensions making the spaces unusable. Traditionally, Victorian returns consist of a series of functional and subservient spaces to the mainhouse. The design exploits this premise, in the creation of a series of generously proportioned multifunctional spaces, accommodating the contemporary needs not afforded by a typical Victorian House, spaces envisaged for working, playing, bathing and sleeping. The functional materiality of the proposal is selected in response to the existing condition of unpainted render at the rear terrace and the subordinate functional spaces contained therein.
