Coastal Room from Anthropologie

As y'all know, I've been a fan of the coastal vintage look lately and most recently decided an anchor would be a nice home accessory. Unique and nautical, anchors are unlikely to appear in anyone else's living quarters which is part of the reason why this idea appeals to me! Well, lo and behold, this past weekend at Anthropologie, I almost jumped out of my skin when I saw the following bedroom display!! Anchor, rope, sand and all, these guys did this room well:

Note the hammock bed. Dreamy.


As to be expected, I would opt against a mini-sand dune but love the idea. And check out the anchor!! On my next trip home, I plan snag one and bring it back to DC.


Love the lantern.

Dream life

I really love y'all, but if I somehow come into a small fortune and this house goes on the market, I will be permanently relocating here:

Chora home desgin store in Mykonos// What is your home design style??

This is the most lovely home store I've ever been in. I'd like to move to Mykonos and work there...it is my "home style" which I would like to say is a seaside version of Anthro plus preppy with TONS of books :) a seaside library of sorts!

Please post examples of your style!! and if you are against being put in a box to define your style then please put up examples of items you'd like in your home or are a priority to you...like my four items i'd choose right now would be:

1) seashells
2) old books
3) old maps
4) pictures of travels from around the world
