  • Re-Vamping Your Living Room

    [ad_1]

    Redesigning your living room can make your home feel brand new, being the first thing you see when you walk through the door. Your updated space can start conversation with guests and bring a new sense of energy and pride.

    Making wood the key feature of your room does not have to create a rustic vibe depending on the type of wood used. Going outside of the box entails the search of vintage furniture, where every piece has its own story and face, moreover the detail found in antiques can't be found in newer models. So what do you do when picking out vintage pieces? Go to a store where you feel the authenticity as soon as you walk through the door. When shopping around don't get too caught up in finding the same shade of wood because I'll tell you now, it's difficult and the piece probably won't have the same vibe. Therefore, avoid the matchy-matchy and collect various shades and when you place it in your room it will flow effortlessly together.

    There's nothing like that smell of real wood. Finding furniture made out of 100% wood can be difficult and expensive but by shopping vintage you will save a few bucks while still having you stand out in the crowd. By adding a vintage table or a bookcase, the space is colored to your liking even if you stick with your old sofa and chairs. Hand-painted accents on a bookcase can help you bring in the color you want into your space that can flow with other accents. You can also change your space while still keeping the colors neutral with the style. With antiques you can find a variety of styles that speaks to you. Going for the lightness of the Indian boho vibe? Place a carved elephant at the center of your coffee table providing luck while reflecting a smile onto your face. So you found your perfect piece … or two (you can't help it because vintage shopping will pull you in), now how do you style it? A coffee table with a washed blue coloring and carved legs speaks for itself and place it where you need it. Remember, you know what works best in your living space! Empty wall? Hang up a hand-carved panel, colored or simple wood, that will make people look twice. By adding pieces that have design or texture, you won't have to complicate yourself with adding a ton of details in order to make the room feel whole.

    Next thing you know, your living room looks eclectic with a new vibrancy that will reflect onto you. Take the chance and walk into an antique furniture shop and maybe you'll be inspired to make a fresh start.

  • Boho Beach Style

    [ad_1]

    Summer is defined by sun, sand and the water. People typically focus on their swimsuits and throw on a t-shirt and a pair of shorts on top and their outfit is brought down a level. It’s time to pay more attention to our bohemian-chic tunics as cover-ups for our bathing suits, making you look more stylish and draw attention as soon as you step out of your house.

    We can start with the basics: a tunic/kimono dress. An oversized poncho in a light shade or a shift/flowy dress lets the breeze right in, keeping you cool. The light shades are good to look for when shopping for oversized clothes, especially with the beach, in order not to drown you in the fabric and to avoid the ruthless sun. Light shades let the light shine through while complementing a nice tan. A yellow brings a happy aura around you while a light pink compliments your skin tone. For those who like to have less fabric, shift dresses are ideal; the shift style still allows for a chill vibe but is a bit more fitted to the body. Any shade of color goes well with boho shift dresses, but the ideal summer colors would be a bright blue or blazing orange, summer is all about bringing more color into your day, in contrast to the winter months. Flowy dresses are my preference, letting my skin breathe but not too baggy, simple and chic. Simply printed bohemian dresses add the extra touch to my outfit: hand painted flowers bordering the neckline and the hem of the dress are enough to finish off the outfit.

    Want to show off some of your new bathing suits while still covering up? Flowy sari pants are the way to go. Flowy pants never go out of style as they make your legs look like they go on for miles. Accent your bathing suit by bringing out the undertones or detailed colors with a complementary colored pant. A rich red pant coordinated with the small red detailing of your top brings out your tan and looks stunning along the water. Want to show your inner yogi? Wear the perfect bottoms that work for the lovers of yoga and the beach. Pants of lightweight recycled silk fabric with a cinched bottom and a bright pattern do amazing things for the transition from morning yoga to a beach day.

    No shirt, no shoes, no service? An embroidered tunic kurti is the perfect throw on dress for lounging around. Kurtis come in a variety of styles depending on your mood. Short white kurtis with colored embroidery continues the summer beach theme from the flowy pants. Vibrant colors give a new look and the white hand embroidered tunics are so comfortable and chill.
