HARD CANDY


Hey girl hey! Are these chairs ridonk or what? Designed by Sergio Mazza circa 1970, these babes are made of fiberglass and coated in hard resin making them perfect for a groovy outdoor patio.

The multi-color candy stripes have me practically salivating and their organic shape is simply divine. Were these stolen from the Chocolate Factory because they're totally Willy Wonka Chic.

WHAT THE SHELL?

Sun-Bleached Turtle Shells $85-$150 Jayson Home

Deer antlers? So five minutes ago...

Last week I caught wind of these funky sun-bleached turtle shells from Jayson Home on Pinterest and I haven't stopped thinking about them since. It brought back early design memories of Kelly Wearstler's bold use of them in The Tides South Beach, as well as Nate Berkus' living room where he mixed one in with his art wall.

There's just something impossibly cool about them.  They add texture and depth to an otherwise boring wall - and what a conversation starter!

INSTA-HUNT

While braving the toasty California weather this weekend I encountered some lovely little treasures. During a mandatory trip to the mall (yuck) I stopped into Anthropologie and couldn't help myself to some of their swoon-worthy dish ware. I also took a trip down to the Santa Monica Flea Market, which is held at the airport and one of my favorites in Los Angeles. Have a look-sy at some of my fab finds:
Put together this stylish assortment of bowls for my mom to store her jewelry in.
Love these tribal pillows from Anthro.
Picked up this fun oversize scarf at Zara for $15 which is now draped over the end of my bed.  
Hey there's a raccoon on my chair!
A pile of vintage Asiatic Pheasant plates - yum.
Oh just a giant brass giraffe.
Rawr.
First thing I saw at the flea market and it was only $40.  Already regret not buying this.
But I did buy THIS! She needs a new seat cushion but I just couldn't resist. It was love at first sight <3

OLÉ OLÉ

Sombrero Sheet Set $226 Anthropologie

Do I even have to explain why these sheets are absolutely beyond? I always say there is nothing better than waking up in a mass of white linens. Unless, of course, those white linens have multi-colored tassel trim.

I can't describe how desperately I need these in my life.

SITTING PRETTY

Handwoven Malawi Bucket Chair $325 Serena & Lily

Malawi-Wowi! I'm not quite sure exactly where that is (geography is not my strong suit) but apparently they know what's up when it comes to boho-chic chairs. It's like they took a peacock chair and gave it a sassy bob haircut.

Props to Serena & Lily for finding this little gem - and at a great price too! So casual and inviting, I'm picturing a pair of these chairs surrounding a clean-lined entryway console or as a corner accent in an eclectic living room. The possibilities are endless!


YOU HAD ME AT TURQUOISE


I recently stumbled upon these turquoise stunners on a recent Etsy binge and instantly fell in love. They seemed to encompass everything I love into one fabulous pair of table lamps. Mid-century modern silhouette - check. Chic asian detailing - check. Turquoise - check.

The only thing more fabulous than these lamps is the price tag. I must be reading it wrong because I thought it said $65.  No?  Where's my Visa!
