Design: Throwback of My Apartment

Earlier this year, I was featured in a popular Decor magazine called Casa e Jardim from Brazil.

I don't believe I ever shared all these photos on my blog....so I wanted to post them today.  The photos were shot earlier this year when Noah was much younger & wasn't standing or walking yet...hence, why the coffee table is styled so nicely in the pic below! Ha! These days, the apartment is not as nicely decorated because having a toddler changes everything! Simple things like a glass vase are now considered "armed & dangerous." haha 

This apartment holds so many memories but one of my favorites was decorating it.  I hope my home decor will inspire you! Please feel free to pin these pics!

Coisas Da Doris....Her Home & Shop!

I got an email from a lovely woman named Doris, she's from Brazil & owns her own little shop in Sao Paulo, called Coisas Da Doris. Her shop is situated in a charming house, where each room shows off how things can be easily put together without much money. I love to hear from other women entrepreneurs, so when Doris wrote to show me her beautifully decorated home, I was all for it! You see, her home was published in the popular Brazilian magazine called 'Casa Claudia Revista' (which I blogged about here) and she wanted to share her stylish & simple decor with my readers. The photos from Doris's home were shot by her husband & professional photographer, Valentino Fialdini. I really LOVE the simplicity & splashes of color! Let Doris know what you think of her home here or on her own blog.
