I think it's hard to go wrong with white and blue

Ugh. I went to bed with a migraine and woke up with one. Nothing but time in bed can give me relief, but deadlines loom, so this bedroom eye candy will have to do...
Keeping a bedroom light, both literally and emotionally, help me feel calm and restful

I am completely in love with this... perfect for that extra lingering on a Sunday Morning after a busy week and a busy Saturday.
It reminds me of this...
Which I also love..

I am feeling a lot better today. Barely got that post off before the flu hit me..
So much to do... so little time.. I will be searching for inspiration for a bunch of new projects that I am starting for the first part of the year today. Please forgive me if I am slow to answer emails and get back to messages... I working on catching up too....

We have guests this weekend, and while I wish the guest room looked like this it might be TOO comfortable - if you know what I mean. This is so subtle and inviting with the soft layers of grey, linen and white.
Are you having guests for the holidays? How do you welcome your guests?
I always try to get the house to a normal level of cleanliness and fluff the pillows. I typically spray the sheets with lavender water and put fresh fluffy towels in the guest bath.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

My friend is looking for new bedding. She likes the colors burgundy-red with a touch of golden hues. Something like this
It's pretty. However, I think she should go with something lighter. Her room does not have a lot of natural light and can feel dark at times. I think she should go with something more like this
It has the golden and red tones in it, but it has a lighter feel to it.
All of this contemplating made me wonder... is possible to find the "cross-over" style where my friend's taste meets mine?
Look, she's a New Yorker, and she is going to do what she wants....I just thought this would be a fun challenge.
Here are pictures I think satisfy both our styles

I wonder what she will think? I will probably be wondering for quite some time....she doesn't read my blog!
What do you think?

Saturdays are the perfect day to take a few extra minutes in bed and enjoy the morning light.
It is easier that way to ease into what you are doing for the day don't you think?
Also, I wanted to say thank you to everyone for all of your sweet comments on Thursday! Things are a bit better now... sometimes though!!!
Have a great weekend.
