What a strike of luck! I didn’t really have time to blog today, so when this video popped up in my inbox, I was pretty pleased =) So in case you hadn’t seen it yet: here’s Jamie Herzlinger‘s tips on how to pick the right headboard height. xox Linda

I’m loving the fun patterns and happy color palette of this pretty bedroom. It’s the work of Vanessa De Vargas of Turquoise LA.
*
Vanessa is known for her striking color palettes, often using strong colors like pink or red to pop on a cool blue backdrop. Love the quatrefoil trellis wallpaper in the bookshelf too, very eye catching!
*
A feminine curvy mirror takes the spotlight in this super simple, but very pretty vignette. In the office space to the right you can see another one of Vanessa’s specialties: framed fabric art. Simple to make, cost effective and very pretty =) A few sources after the jump!

This gorgeous bedroom has me dreaming every time I see it. It’s one of Phoebe Howard‘s many masterpieces, and I’ve been drooling over that curvy dream of a headboard for about 3 years now.
*
Needless to say, I was quite satisfied when I ran across the very same bed at Candelabra. It’s upholstered in Raffia and decorated with nailheads. I Love that the entire bed is upholstered, and not just the headboard. I could definitely get a good night’s sleep in that beautiful bed. On second thought, I think the price tag of $2,400.00 would keep me awake…
*
Now have you ever tried to find nice coral colored bedding online? It’s not that easy. I always find Williams Sonoma has very pretty ones though. The three in the image above are coral, solid and greek key. (ps. they are all on sale ;)
*
Not exactly Phoebe Howard material, but I think I could sleep well here too. The curvy headboard is covered with chunky linen in colorway Ivy, the nailhead trim is $3.99 for 100 nails, and the coral bedding is $384.00 for the entire set (king size). Yup, better sleep indeed.

PS: I’m finally on Pinterest, and I’m looking for inspiring people to follow ;)

This amazing bedroom belongs to the lovely Dayka at Life + Style. Dayka is (obviously) a designer and also co-founder of Room Service Atlanta along with Erika Ward, a non-profit organization assisting families in making the transition from homelessness to self-sufficiency. Super talented AND gives back!
*
I’ve been following Dayka’s blog for years, simply because I adore her sense of style. Isn’t her bedroom amazing? I love the warm atmosphere of the rich brown walls, contrasted by crisp white and accented with gold.
*
Of course, the bedding doesn’t hurt either. Successfully combining ikat, polka dots and heavy stripe is a feat in itself, and Dayka makes it seem effortless.
*
A closer look at the amazing polka dot bedding. I want!!
*
Best of all, Dayka is an avid thrifter and DIYer, so all furniture pieces you see in these images are the result of her magic hands. This bedroom will be published in its entirety in a national media outlet (secret for now), and I can’t wait to see it!! Go check out her blog for more inspiration!
