Bigger isn't always better! With the trends of mini houses on the rise, how perfect is this shabby chic cottage in the Catskills? An old hunting cabin converted into a mountain girls paradise for only $3k.

Vintage Play Room
I absolutely love a kids room adorned with vintage goodies! And how awesome is this playroom? Its kid friendly, perfect for boys and girls and gives plenty of space to play, and create while having enough room to store toys and books. I believe storage is key in a childs room. They need a clear space to use their little imaginations, but with kids come STUFF! Ikea is the perfect place for storage pieces. They have so many choices of bookcases, boxes, shelves, hanging storage and so on. If you don't have an Ikea close by, no need to fret, many pieces can be ordered online. To balance the gleeming brightness of new pieces, bring in a few vintage pieces to make a room a little more lived in and homey!

Boardwalk Empire
One of my all time favorite shows is returning this Sunday, HBO's Boardwalk Empire. The show chronicles the life of Nucky Thompson who is equal parts politician and gangster. Set in Atlantic City at the beginning of prohibition.
Aside from the drama and suspense, I absolutely adore the fashion!
Here are some gorgeous 1920s finds from Etsy ( I could definitely see Margaret Schroder wearing these)

A Birthday Gift Mommy Doesn't Mind Giving
Now that my daughter is about to turn 5 in two months (sniff sniff) she has asked for a big girl room for her birthday. I am happy to oblige! (As its practice for me, it’s also not a toy she will grow out of in a week.) This will be the third room I have done from her; first baby, then toddler now big girl. Like most parents, I don’t want to fork over the money to redo her room every year or so. (A spruce up every so often- yes, a redo- no.) What better way to make a big girl room she can grow into then by immersing cool vintage items?
This bedroom my daughter actually picked out, and here is my take on it! 
I absolutely love the remixed vintage sheet set from verabellesattic. Such a cute idea!
This is such a cute little bed side stand that can be stacked with bed time books from Shavingkitsuppplies!
Beautiful and vibrant Matryoshka dolls from thelogchateau are a perfect pop of color
How fun and vibrant is this abstract painting from ARTinVENICE. I love the simplicity of it, yet it totally catches your eye!
The warm colors in this Keane piece from fabulousmess is perfect to add with the color of the bed and the warmth of the chair
I absolutely love the simplicity of this chair from JunkHouse! While it’s not pink it is warm. It’s screaming come sit and read a book! The only thing I would add is a throw to soften it up.
