HIDE & GO SEAT!

The acrylic chair. I used to strongly dislike the see-through look, but lately I've started warming up to the idea. A chair that doesn't add any visual weight to a room is pretty nifty for any space -- especially in the awesomely modern designs below. Feast your eyes on these babies (if you can find them)!

Ain't she a beauty?!

At first glance you might be apprehensive to sit on this, but aren't your eyes in loooove!?


yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!


And now a few snapshots of these spectacular space-chameleons at work:

As bar stools:

As dining-room chairs...

And my personal favorite:
As a compliment to some awesomely-funky-color-spotted-square-chairs...
...YUM!!

The last picture is the inspiration for this post. As I was perusing images of professionally designed homes I came across this and exclaimed, "I THINK I MIGHT LOVE THIS!" Yes, that's right folks, my tastes are maturing. While I used to find anything see-through utterly repulsive, I've decided now that it doesn't offend me in the slightest. Well, anything modern and acrylic and similar to the photos above don't offend me [blow-up chairs circa 2001 offend me. Sorry. I needed to clarify.]

SHOES!

If there is one thing I really don't hate, it's shoes. I love them. There I said it. 
I have an ever-growing shoe collection that brings me much joy, but over the last couple days I have uncovered three pair of shoes that I absolutelymusthaveorIwilldie. I'm not certain I will make it through another day without these, but if I do, I can assure you it will be miserable and I will spend every waking moment dreaming of what might be...


Prada. Platformed. Penny loafers. A perfect alliteration.
LAMB. Clogs. With a kick-ass heel. Dreamy.
Miu Miu. Harness. Booties. 
I would show you a photo of the heel but my blog would die from sheer perfection. 
And I'm not sure I could resists clicking "add to cart"
You'll have to take the risk yourself. 

I am working on perfecting the art of lottery-winning, whilst simultaneously working 40 hours a week running a retail store and doing freelance design on the side in hopes to afford these shoes. So far, no luck. But it's a process. Baby steps. 

That's all for now,
