When can we leave?
February 29th, 2012 § Leave a Comment
I was reading the blog Elements of Style and Erin Gates posted that the villa from “Under the Tuscan Sun” has been renovated and is up for rent. Not only is that one of my favorite movies, but I’ve had a total crush on that house since I first laid eyes on it! Anyway, this led me to check out the rental site (Italianvillas.com) and I have been drooling over all the properties. Not only would renting one of these properties be an amazing trip, some of the houses are really well decorated and the pics make for some great inspiration!
While I’m chasing Oliver around the house trying to entertain him on this rainy day, I’ll be mentally booking my trip to Tuscany where the most pressing issue of the day will be which wine to pair with our delicious dinner al fresco… one day right? ;)

I signed up for Pinterest awhile ago but finally started pinning the other night and it’s totally addicting! I’m always saving pics of my favorite spaces from the web and now and this makes it so much easier to both collect pictures and organize them. I highly recommend it! You can also start following me, I’m under Adrienne Voboril. Take a peak!

Inspiring Closets

The natural light, the floor length mirrors, the subtle pops of colors, egh I have complete closet envy. As you know I’ve been purging and organizing and while I don’t have the closet the size of most bedrooms ( I mean really who does?) maybe one day it’ll happen. Until then, it’s still fun to look.
Bringing me back down to reality, this is a great article from Real Simple with 31 practical ways to makeover your closets. Some of my favorites include mounting a peg board for small accessories:

And using slimming hangers to save space (they really work, these are great from the Container Store).
I’ll get going on those practical solutions but I can still dream that one day I’ll have a space big enough for art and a fun vintage chair for when I’m just too exhausted from dressing myself.
