Ask my boyfriend what he wants for Valentine’s Day, and he will tell you that he wants me off my decorating binge. While I don’t see that happening any time soon, there are small ways to easily update a space. Organized wall decor is one of my favorite concepts right now. Steal the look with a few upgrades. They also make great, thoughtful Valentine’s Day gifts.
[A pretty pop of color for any corner of your house.]
[Create a custom map of your home, or where you wish you were.]
[Kate Spade created this fun twist on black and white accents.]
[Photo frames of different shapes but in the same color family help to keep a room uniform.]
[These prism vases add depth to any side table.]

Just because summer is coming to a close, certainly does not mean we have to take on a teary goodbye with fun colors. The stigma that comes with Fall, is that color must go out the door, and a neutral wardrobe of black, greys, and brows must take over. A jewel tone coat can turn any frown upside down, with the ease of draping one over the shoulders. Bright colors will never be “out” and add the special “pop” a bland outfit needs. Kate Spade currently has some of my favorites, so browse away.

With technology at the tips of our fingers 24/7, skimping out on a well dressed IPhone is not an option. Think of your phone as an accessory. You would never wear a rubber studded shirt, so why would that go on your phone? If you paid $200 for your little baby, you better take care of it.
Here are five fun case options, along with five nail polishes to give you that extra oomph.
All Polishes: Deborah Lippman.
