This week... and also weekend(!) we are wallpapering. Literally everything!
The best thing with these beautiful wallpapers that you can mix&match however you want. You cannot make mistakes, since it looks good even when it actually doesn't. :)
Let me know if you like them!




Love the hair color with the wallpaper!

The pink flowers appear because of the heat. So cool!


Slowly by slowly I am revealing the photos that were taken during the 50th Salone del Mobile in Milano 2011 April :)
For sure blue and yellow ruled the color palette this year... and hopefuly soon our home as well.



They've even painted the metal structure of the booth blue and yellow! :)



To tell you a secret - I'm painting EVERYTHING blue and yellow nowadays!
There is a huge trend now that lamps, chandeliers, pendants are made of nothing else, but the naked bulbs.
You can call it puritan, used garbage, or just simply ugly... I think these are amazing!





I am a huge fan of online shopping, so of course I made some cool purcases this week also.

1. Scotch and Soda leather jacket

2. Marimekko for Converse shoes :) I was searching for this pair since February. Although Marimekko is a Finnish brand, it is not easy to buy something that is available mostly, only in the US :( ...if you are not based in the US

3. Vintage armchairs* #1-2

4. Vintage armchairs* #3-4
*wait until these re-born in their new life!
I wish you all Happy Easter with these not-so-Eastery, but definitely beautiful pictures! :)







Although the it has finished last week, I am still in the 'Salone mood':) ... feel inspired, filled up, energized and alive. If I could share this feeling with everybody...
Here are some beautiful inspiring carpets from the Salone 2011.













On the -1 day of Salone del Mobile everything is still quiet and calm, but somehow you can feel that something is up in the air. :)
I took a quick stroll all over the 'centro di Milano' and although I didn't have my camera with me, I made some photos with my phone.



In 2 hours I'm off to Milan for the fantastic Salone del Mobile - 2011 Design Week/ Festival/ Crazyness...
Every day I report the best of that day, so you can also be a part of this great event. Stay tuned and wait for all the beauties! :)
Until I arrive, here are some photos from the previous years (and 1 that is completely new).
