Modern Cozy

I just discovered Usona, a brilliant home furnishings company in Philly. I will definitely be featuring their designs again. Their beds seriously make me scrunch up my shoulders, smile and sigh. Especially the You and Me Leather bed (above). Who doesn't want to cuddle up in that? Seriously. Usona- you have my vote.

And you think your orthopedic mattress is cool....

Let's just take a minute and look at these..............1............2............3.........yeah. Crazy stuff. I would sleep all day if I had these...except for the snow angel one...I can't look that excited for more than twenty minutes.

Light of my Life

Man- I am on a role tonight! In my new place, lighting is completely dependent on the sun. These bedrooms, however, have their own style going. Light is so important (for those of you who follow Feng Shui you know why). Natural light feeds your spirit more than any other kind of natural energy. Though these pictures don't have natural lighting, they do a pretty nice job improvising. The first and last are my favorites. What do you think? 

Color Blocks

Ahhh how lovely color is. I spent so much time as a child around stark, insomnia-inducing white walls and boring brown and beige. These bedrooms here are so incredibly alive with color- so much personality- I love it. If these rooms were people you'd definitely want to be their friend. 

The Big Sleep

If there's one thing I have always loved- it's a gigantic, fluffy bed. The beds in these rooms are the centerpiece- which a lot of people try to avoid. Why? It's a bedroom! Your bed should be your sanctuary where you can sleep, dream, stretch your limbs to the edges and sink into that abyss of fluffy covers and pillows. 

Think Pink

It wasn't until this past year that I started to appreciate the color pink. I always snubbed it cause I'm blonde and blue-eyed and once you add pink to that mix you automatically cross over to the ditzy dark side- at least that's what I've gathered. Not my style. Annnyywayyy- lately I've been obsessed with dark, blue-based hot pinks/magentas- Margarete Russell style. These rooms are gorgeously pink without being sickeningly girly. Now that's some talent.
