Graphic Colorful Rug

The possibility of becoming a house home owner in the near future comes with the realization that the house will likely have more empty rooms than not for the first couple of years! Hopefully I can leave aside enough to buy a few key pieces, like this Anntian Graphic Color Wool Rug on Jumelle ($515):

Intrigued by this idea of Caviar Nails that Katy Perry has been known to sport. Buy Ciate beads at Sephora for $25:

Suedette Jacket

I love jackets, I have way too many and I end up wearing the same on the entire season. If I need to add one this year, I will be budget-conscious this fall and buy this Forever21 Wrinkled Suedette Jacket for $37.80:

Peter Pan Collars

I made the mistake of buying a shirt with Peter Pan collar without trying it on, and promptly returned it the next day! The material created a bizarre fit and I just looked goofy. Still on the prowl for one and my eye caught these:

J. Crew's Peter Pan collar tee:


Kill 2 trends with one purchase with this Chandi & Lia Peter Pan Collar Colorblock Dress on UO: 


Too sheer, but I like the idea of this Sequined Collar Blouse on Forever 21:



Ok this one isn't exactly Peter Pan but I like it anyway, Max C Blouse With Scallop Collar on ASOS:


See other ASOS Peter Pan styles here.

Or go the route of collar as accessory and add a Peter Pan collar to any shirt. I love this Top Shop Sequin Peter Pan Necklace:


Find other great Peter Pan accessories and Necklaces on TopShop here.

Lastly, check out Etsy for some amazing one-of-a-kind wallet-friendly collar accessories.

Ikat Dinnerware

For our wedding, we only ended up with one full place setting and two sets of flatware, so I'm always on the lookout for something cute and reasonably priced so that one day I may have more than two dishes that match. I love this C. Wonder ikat pattern (prices $10-$14):

Hip Cleaning

I've been trying to think of the name of this store forever it's called the Alice Supply Co! If you're going to arm yourself with a screwdriver and hammer, they might as well be pretty.

Find other garden and home essentials like plungers. Even some fun bonus items like retro ping pong paddles.
