Hello there and happy day to you. Today I'm bringing you a romantic and fashionable home tour.

This beautiful and charming home belongs to designer and blogger Christine Dovey. She has a true knack for mixing high & low priced finds, with vintage and modern details. A skill we can all appreciate. Most of her walls are white, giving the perfect backdrop for the small doses of pink, black, and gold you'll find in each room. Christine paints too, and her artwork is displayed in all the rooms, along with other bold & fashionable pieces. Can I move in?

You can find room details and hundreds of photos from her home over at Style Me Pretty Living.

I hope you feel inspired by her gorgeous home. Enjoy!

Do you ever wonder what your home would look like if you got rid of everything you do not ADORE? I do, and I'm getting the urge to start a pile of keep, donate, and sale. I've done it before and it could happen again very soon. This beautiful home by Clare Cousins has me inspired to start re-doing and de-cluttering my spaces. See more of this refreshing home here.

Hello and lovely day to you! I have a sunny and bright kitchen to share with you today via Pencil & Paper Creative Development Co.. This kitchen magically combines my favorite colors and tones, white + gold, in a very successful way! I absolutely adore the counter-to-ceiling white subway tile - with white grout - that beautifully showcases those metallic gold shelves. The simple and sleek white cabinetry is the perfect modest back drop to the gold statement bar pulls. Uh…the gold lantern style lighting above the marble counter top island is just breathtaking! The pinch of blue in the geo pattern window coverings and rug is the cherry-on-top of this whole space. And I have to mention the doggie, he seems right at home in his posh kitchen! I would too!

As you may guess I love to read blogs. I'll admit I've been caught up in so many other things this summer that I feel I need to catch up with all my favorite ones. Smitten Studio is one of my favorites and one that I like to check-in on every few weeks. She is in the midst of a home project, in her adorable cabin, that she shares on the blog. The beautiful photos have me ooh-and-awing and the links to all the sources are super helpful.  The Kitchen Update post from early July is just amazing and I have to share it here with my readers. The cabinet paint colors, by Farrow & Ball, with Wimborne White on top and Pigeon on the bottom is a noteworthy idea and a new trend I'm seeing more and more. You can find all the project details along with sources on her blog here.
