Shoe Closet!

I am in desperate need of some shoe organization in my life. Having all of your shoes in boxes makes it that much harder to have an idea of what you want to wear. What makes it worse is that sometimes I forget about half of those shoes because I don't see them. I have been looking on Pinterest and searching Google for anything that can help with my dilemma, and this is what I found!

Gorgeous, right? I was searching for a shoe organizer that would have glass doors. It would make finding shoes a breeze.  It can be used as decor itself with your shoes on display. Also, the glass doors would help keep dust off of them extending the lifetime of your shoes. I found inspiration is this closet but....unfortunately I do not have a closet this large nor a room to dedicate to a closet. So I came across another pic of someone who used an IKEA cabinet to get the job done.

So with the help of the second picture, I went searching on IKEA and I think I found the one!

So with the price tag on this item, it may be a while before I get it, but at least I know where to go. I also like the extra side of shelves. I'm thinking it could hold my purses. Too bad it doesn't have a door. I could probably build one though...yikes! I definitely will be changing the door knobs too!

Let me know what you think and if you're having a shoe dilemma like myself lol

Love,

Room Items

Hey guys!

If you didn't catch my previous room tour, check it out HERE. Here are most of the main items that I have used in my bedroom. A lot of these I found by chance, well...not actively looking for them...at IKEA, Pier 1, and Target. Ooh Target, I love thee and finding accessories for a much lower cost. And they look great...can't beat that!

I was inspired to create a little board to organize these items just so you could get a better look! Links below.

Enjoy!

p.s. the clock is on sale for 50% off at Hobby Lobby this week! Something tells me I should have waited...

Hope you like!

Leave a comment below and tell me what your favorite furniture finds are!

Room Tour

Like I promised, more room pics! I knew I would get a little trigger happy as soon as a new camera came along. I am still working on getting pictures for my gallery wall and I still need to put my curtains up, but other than that...it has come a long way. Now if someone could tell me where to find a cream and gold lamp. Enjoy!

Click to enlarge images :)

I love how it came together. Normally, my rooms have always been on the more neutral side, so to have all this color in my life was definitely out of the box for me. I love it!

Remember...it's a very cool thing to be a smart girl.

I'll be giving details on all my sources in a future post. Gotta get them all together.

Can't wait to hear what you all think!

Love,

Lola

Gallery Wall Inspiration

One word. Wow! I am completely in love with and inspired by this gallery wall by one of my newly found favorite Instagramers and Life + Style blogger stephsterjovski. Especially since I have been looking for ideas on how to arrange my own gallery wall and what kind of pictures I would like to hang. This picture nails it on the head. Ahhh the gold accents!

Here is another pic of her entire gallery wall:

And I also came across this picture by SWOON....LOVE!

And another for inspiration:

Well looks I need to start shopping for gold frames because I definitely love the look. And if all else fails, DIY!

Love, 

Lola
