Money to spare in the bedroom

If I had some money to spare (like to really spare) I would get some bed linens from Olatz, because I'm terribly obsessed by the hotel super luxurious look! Who hasn't seen Jena Lyons bedroom with her white linens and orange pipping? What would be your bedroom indulgence (let's dream!)??

An art wall

I'm slowly putting together an art wall in our bedroom (thanks 3M Command!) I have been inspired by many around the web and blogosphere but these here are my core inspiration. Paula from Two Ellie (49 has one in each room, how creative, photos of her family and art by her kids mixed with pretty prints. She says she was inspired by Moomah (1 and 5), and how right she is! I love the mix and match in SFgirlbybay Victoria's home (5). So eclectic. And what is it what I love more? Thank you can create anything you like and make it work as you want.

Barbican gardens

I have never showed you were I live. We live in an apartment in the middle of the City, which is... a bit like living in the middle of... I don't know Wall Street, more or less, it's the financial district in London, where banks and major corporations are. It's handy because nor me or my boyfriend have to commute very long. It's a residential area in the middle of concrete, the Barbican was built between the end of the 1950's and the 1970's, some people hate it (concrete anyone?) some love it (because of the supposed design+the way the apartments were built). Anyway, among all those blocks of apartments there are... gardens, and a lake, and flowers, very very well kept and only for residents. A small oasis in the middle of the City. I love it, it's central, love the way the apartment is set up and the amenities. Plus there is one of the biggest art centers in Europe. These are from these morning, glorious morning, gorgeous warm weather. 

How is your weekend going so far?

The tiny desk quest

At the beginning of the week I saw this gorgeous desk area at Christina's blog Down and Out Chic and it triggered a long pain I've had for a very long while now: having a small home office, very small, I'm not high maintenance, ha! We live in a one bedroom apartment in London, and I can't complain, it's big enough for central London but unfortunately there is NO real space. 

This is THE desk, the Jay desk + Hutch 

I love the combination with the Ghost chair so I started thinking that I WANTED to recreate the look, but where?

I thought about the bedroom, remove the nightstand and put a small desk and a chair... would it be awkward? Will the space become tiny winy? maybe yeah...

Here's the inspiration behind the idea, how do you feel about desk/nightstand?

Then I thought and thought, there's a space between the closet and the wallet, useless space really but it's 65cm  (25.6inches) yes nooooot much, which means that I need a desk not wider than that... and there isn't much of that in the market. Here are the 2 ideas, WHAT DO YOU THINK? opinions please, Ill thank you for ever :)
