If You Want Statement Furniture..This Is It

Good Afternoon!

About a month ago I was in Chicago with one of my friends and I had to hit up one of my favorite stores

Design Within Reach.

Here are some of my favorites..

 This sofa, which is extremely comfortable, speaks.  To me it has the right amount of funk, power and a touch of a tailored look.  I just have to point out the red chandelier..to die for.

 This light is not just organically beautiful but casts amazing shadows on the walls.  Adds depth.

 These illuminated planters are stunning.  Wonderful for a porch or around a swimming pool : )

I have not been able to get this chandelier out of my head.  This would be perfect in a smaller version over my dining table.  Definitely an investment piece.

What's catching your eye lately?  Any statement pieces?  

BTW..

Thinking about everyone in the path of the fires in Colorado.  Our prayers are with you.

Our Trip To Chicago: Crate and Barrel

Hello, everyone!  Hope this is a great Monday for all of you.  It's bright and sunny here and my husband and I are planning on working on our backyard today.  Yes, more spring cleaning : )

I wanted to continue about our trip to Chicago.  Let's make our way down to Crate and Barrel.  I have found the location I like the most is in Lincoln Park.  The store has more character and they offer a lot more merchandise.

The glasses and pitcher Corey and I fell in love with.  They are made from 100% recycled glass and heavy.  I don't know about you but I hate when glasses are really thin and breakable.

He wants to get some : )

These two sofas I adore..

Love the clean lines and the white leather.

I have no other word to describe this than "hot".  The color, the shape and it's wow factor.  I could see this with an ecclectic, cottage, beach house style.  

Modern organic.  Simple and gorgeous.

The metal wrapped table and chairs. 

It doesn't look like it but those chairs are very comfortable.

Last one..

The color is like gun metal with an aged look.

Btw..we did get some of those glasses : )

Stay tuned.. Friday guest blogger and on Monday more of my trip to Chicago
