Single with Personality


091510_NEWS_North Quad_MRM, originally uploaded by AnnArbor.com.

Check this single dorm room at Ann Arbor. The dorm-dweller grounded all the white walls with black furniture and used a color scheme of rich purple, poppy red, and orange. Poppy wall decals bloom from behind the headboard and couch. A purple rug and matching curtains add lush color and unity to the room. And fun pillows in various print add a pop of color and pattern to the space.

Eeek! True single love. Gosh do I adore that desk chair... Why do I feel like I've seen a lot of these things at Ikea?

This is absolutely adorable. I love it. The colors are awesome, and I'm a huge fan of wall decals. My roomie and I were planning to get one for our apartment but haven't been able to yet. Hopefully soon...

I want to know where you found this picture--- I live in Ann Arbor and have watched this dorm go from a pile of dirt to whats pictured above...
I'm really curious what it looks like inside but haven't found many pictures.
It makes me miss living in a dorm (almost). The dorm I lived in for college was awesome, I wish I was as into decor then as I am now...

DIY Cat Barrier for Under $100 (See-Through, Climb-Proof, and Too-Tall-To-Jump)

ICYMI: I gave up Cotton after deciding that after trying so many things, my two adopted cats Dahlia and Cotton were just never going to get along. Long story short: I missed her. And Cotton's back. And Dahlia's not going anywhere. My heart is big enough to keep trying. And my apartment is big enough that if I need to keep them separated long term (or permanently), it can be done.
I'm going to write-up a separate post about some of the solutions I've tried, how they worked, who they worked on, and what I'll be trying next. But in this post, I wanted to share the main 'piece de resistance' of having both cats in my apartment: an un-climbable, un-jumpable, see-through barrier to separate Cotton and Dahlia.

Blair's Room | Gossip Girl Decor

Manhattan's debutante Blair Waldorf happens to be my favorite Gossip Girl character.  Her behavior and feelings vary from snobbish to sensitive, but she always (except for a few rare occasions) looks and acts totally pulled together.  Her luxurious bedroom is fit for a queen---and is as pulled together as her preppy fashion ensembles.
