Home : Decorating With Statement Pieces

Every room in your home is worth a conversation.  What better way to get people talking than by adding one major statement piece?  {And by "major," I mean awesome.} 

A statement piece is that one unique item that the eye quickly finds once entering a room.  It's not necessarily the focal point of the room, but rather eye-catching.  If it's not part of the focal point, be sure that it doesn't distract from the focal point, but it enhances the room as a whole.  It's that bold piece that makes a statement about your personal style.

Your "piece" could be a collection of one item - like several of the mercury glass owls you see below, or an every day item doused in bright glossy paint. {I once saw an assortment of old cameras that someone had collected from thrift stores and spray painted them solid glossy colors - it was so unique to the person who made them, yet gave the space that extra something special.}  It could be a handmade piece of furniture or something you found at a boutique or an antique fair.  Or a wall fixture that draws your eye up, making the room seem larger than life.  

Statement Pieces



Statement pieces are great cause they could be that finishing touch to a room that's been lacking luster, or it could be the jumpstart to the inspiration you've been searching for.  These special pieces are meant to tell a story, so have fun with it! 

What are your favorite statement pieces in your home?  Link up if you've blogged about them!! I'd love to see.

Fashion Friday : Luscious Lips


The weekend has arrived {well, it's pretty darn close} - and I'm oh so excited because my parents are driving {YES! I said driving - they're crazy, I know.} from Florida and should arrive sometime late Sunday.  

I couldn't be more thrilled {well, I would be a teensy more thrilled if my sister had made the trek with them, but she had to work}.  They'll be here exploring the Monterey coast with us for the next two weeks, so I have prepared several posts for your viewing pleasure, along with a few guest posts sprinkled here and there.  I truly hope you enjoy the line up and hope you enjoy meeting my precious friends!  I'll be back to respond to emails and comments after the 31st.  Until then I'm sure I'll be instagramming our time together if you'd like to follow along {@dcollyer}! :)

Okay - back to business.

Today we're talking about those luscious lips!  

My hubby isn't much of a fan of the all famous lipstick.  Mostly because he doesn't like walking away with a layer of goop after a kiss. ;)  So I'm more of a tinted balm/chapstick sort of girl, but I do love me some red or pink lips every now and then.  Lets face it - it just makes a girl feel more glamourous!  Am I right?

I've gathered a few of my favorite hues and I've tossed in a few of my favorite tints.

I cannot wait to reconnect in two weeks!
