Paula + Martha... NYC design duo

I was surfing the internet last night in search of some design inspiration. I came across this fabulous design studio, Paula + Martha LLC, based right here in NYC. Loving their design aesthetic! Every room room has an eclectic mix of modern and classic design elements... A perfect combination of old and new, with pieces so carefully selected for each space. I love how this design duo adds just enough color throughout by incorporating the perfect piece of art and accessory. It's all in the detail and I think they're right on...Enjoy!

My daughters fab fotos....

My daughter Isabella (13) and my son Jacob (4), slept over my moms house last night.

Isabella takes her camera just about everywhere! She is so enamoured by graffiti and industrialism. So here are few pictures she took today on our way home from Brooklyn. Just thought they were soooo cool, had to share.

We decided to collect all her best pics, print them out and frame them to use as art work in our new apartment. I'm such a proud mama!
Hope you enjoy...


For those of you who have children, you will completely understand the pride that comes over you when they do something fabulous!

A letter of inspiration

Hi again!

I am so glad to be back. I haven't posted in over three months.
2010 has certainly been a life changing year for me so far. I just moved into my first apartment with my two children after 14 years of marriage. I started a new job in NYC after a 9 month search. I am learning to be with myself and the tears are slowly turning into smiles...

Blogging is one of my favorite things to do, but for a while i just couldn't find the inspiration. I am very happy to report that I am ready to explore all things inspired and share them with you. Let's say that this is part of my healing process.

With that said, thank you so much...To those of you that have hung in there with me and stopped by every once in a while. Thanks to my new followers even though I haven't posted in a little while. I am looking forward to connecting with all of my new and old blogger friends again!

A very special Thanks to my beautiful and most amazing friends...You know who you are. Thanks for all of your patience, love and support. I love you guys!
