YOU'RE KILIM' ME


Anatolian Turkish Kilim Rug Starting Bid: $79 ebay.com

I don't believe there's a better way to add color and charisma to a space than laying down a vintage Kilim rug. Whether it's at the foot of your bed, layered over an inexpensive seagrass rug, or strewn down your entryway you really can't go wrong. It's a sure-fire conversation piece that will make your guests think you're really cultured even though the farthest you had to travel was your Paypal account to buy it. So bust out your bidding paddle and get your ebay on with this bad boy coming to you straight off the boat from Turkey. Holla!

MINTY FRESH

Good things are happening here. I came across this shop a little while back and instantly fell in love. Lots of fab vintage finds at even more fab prices. They have a diverse collection of all sorts of unique things from brass to barware. I recently ordered a couple pink ikat pillows and they arrived in adorable packaging complete with a handwritten note. Since then, they got in some great new arrivals that are definitely worth checking out. I have a feeling I will be shopping here again very soon... already begun my wish list!

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.

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
