shabby chic

Shabby Chic is the perfect mix of cozy, comfy, girly and glam. The bedding is my very most favorite...the softest cotton and linen. Growing up, my room was "Shabby Chic" and I loved it. And even my first apartment was all white and Shabby Chic inspired. My style quickly changed a few years back when I moved in with my bf and as you can imagine, he's not really a big Shabby Chic fan and all white certainly wasn't going to work with a boy around. Flowers, pink and ruffles aren't really his favorites (crazy, right?). But deep down I still love the comfy cozy feel of a Shabby Chic look and long for a perfectly decorated Shabby Chic cottage!

  1. My bedroom during high school and beyond was Shabby Chic, and I loved it! In fact, when I go home it still is...but many of the pieces have been sold or moved since it is now a guest room...I still really appreciate the look, but it is fun to see how my tastes have evolved and changed over the years!

  4. Co-ed cohabitation can certainly put a damper on decor plans. Good thing those boys can be so darn cute to make up for it!!!

  5. I agree with Daredevil! Living with a boy ruins any dreams of shabby chic decor.

  9. I love it all white and roughed up a bit in an industrial context, like the concrete floors and exposed ducting like above! Plus minimal furniture. Totally works!
