pinch me, i'm dreaming {desiretoinspire'd}

Cuz this bathroom is just too beautiful, right? And the photograph's softness/slight haziness makes me think this is too dreamy to be real. Or do I need to clean my glasses...?


And I just like this.



And I love this angle, too!

Can I just...

... be this awesome?

{Nikki of Chic Maps, feat. on Design*sponge}

... hang these everywhere -- at home, in my office, in my car?

... live wherever here & here are, or magically transport these rooms to my place? Oh, and live the lifestyle that i think goes with this gorgeousness?

Somehow, even just thinking I could achieve these things (okay, really, just that top one) is daunting enough. Whew. (The others, I can still figure out how to work in... right?) But soooo pretty, right?

Such farm-glam!

Or maybe I should say ranch-glam. Regardless: so. pretty.

I think I love chandeliers too much. I mean, I thought it was a little ridiculous when, in the past year or so, my fave HGTV shoes kept replacing ceiling fans in bedrooms with chandeliers, and also adding chandeliers in the bathroom. But man, I think that's all starting to grow on me. Eek. But somehow, I think for a wedding, even when the reception is hosted in a barn, chandeliers seem perfect. Hee.

Lovely (interior) color combo!

Seriously, I super heart dwellings and decor, and while Rachel is out getting married + honeymooning (yea!) -- she has lined up some seriously fierce guest post-ers! Love this, and everyone else who's posted so far! But seriously -- check out this chandelier -- swoon.

And this ultra feminine post by Ashley L. @ decor amor, and this *super elegant* yet fresh neutrals-palettes by Manvi @ Mochatini -- both so brilliant + pretty + inspiring!

beautiful dining room living space!

So want. but translated for a living space. we've already got the dark floors, so we're almost there, right ;)? i super heart the light blue walls. and totally that flood of light. and duh, the tiny-glam (so doesn't overpower the hubs' masculinity, of course) chandeliers! yes to everything, please.

Flower... chandeliers?

Holy crapola, these are breathtaking.

Lots of natural light. Pretty + dainty chandelier. Floor to ceiling books. Cute tiny nook.

Want.

BC 8: draping + antler chandelier = not so much

+

= Not so much, right?

Instead, you've got the fabulous exposed beams w/ kitsch:

See, T, no draping necessary!

Er, at least, I hope this is encouraging -- I think it's a fabulous space + very Texas!

Wedding color: white?

Hmm, I figured for my bouquet, I'd run to Whole Foods for one of their beautiful bright bouquets at just $15, b/c they always make me happy. But gosh darn, the explosion of soft white in the bouquet below, then the white florals + chandeliers below that, then the simplicity of the cake below *that* -- man, I'm really digging white.
