purty blue and white

As I reviewed the latest images of things I'd been attracted to on the design blog circuit, I found myself noting that I gravitated a lot toward things that were blue, white, shiny, and silver. Most of our home is dominated by the color black since we both love it so much but our bedroom doesn't have any black in it. Its blue and white and silver.

When you're young and not rich it seems like you get the stuff that you can live with for the time being and then when you have moolah, you get the stuff to make you feel like a grown up. Our bedroom is a prime example. All of the furniture is the Malm stuff from Ikea. What I want, is an upholstered bed with mirrored side tables. Still I'm fairly happy with our bedroom, its the room in the apartment that makes me feel soothed and I think its because of the colors. So here is a little page of things that inspire me to dream of blue and a few images of things that are mine that wake me up (the Jonathan Adler umbrella, the diamond vase, pencils, bedside carafe, and frame with picture of my dream closet).
