AFFILIATE LINKS ARE OCCASIONALLY USED ON AK STUDIO. HOWEVER THEY ARE USED TO ENDORSE PRODUCTS THAT I GENUINELY LIKE AND WANT TO SHARE. ALL OPINIONS ARE MY OWN.
Today is one of my very favorite holidays here in the states. The 4th of July. We hosted a roof top party last night (cannot wait to share pictures Monday) and are celebrating in the burbs today.
Remember a couple weeks ago when I shared the evolution of our bedroom? Well its finally in a place I like. Feminine and cozy. Right up my alley.
And then those amazing grandparents of mine decided as a wedding present they are going to give us a new mattress, new headboard and new bedding so that we can get the king size bed I’ve been lusting after (boy+girl+90 pound beast does not equal a very comfortable sleeping situation in a queen). So this means… bedroom redo time! I am actually really excited and have already begun collecting some fun bedroom inspiration.
Here are a couple of my all time favorites
I love how this feels like a grown up little girl’s bedroom. The shimmer in the blush wallpaper, the Moroccan wedding blanket, the mismatched lamps and nightstands. Its all so perfectly bohemian.
Ryan Korban can do no wrong in my book. But this has such a beautiful, masculine warmth. So different than the first bedroom but similar too. The asymmetry is perfectly unexpected. Not to mention the furry pillows and Hermes blanket.
And of course. The bedroom we all know. The Persian. The dark walls. The wrinkly hotel bedding. I adore it. Every last bit.
This bedroom feels like a perfect balance. Neutral wallpaper. A really streamlined regency style window treatment. Tailored, clean white bedding. And a beautiful pastel rug on the ground. I’d skip the purple and be in heaven.
So now you see the problem? I am all over the board. I’ve always heard designers have the most trouble with their own spaces, and its definitely holding true. I see so many gorgeous things everyday, its hard to decide what I want for myself!
