New Love: Pure Style Home

You may know all about this already so please pardon my gush of enthusiasm but I am in love with this blog Pure Style Home by Lauren Leiss Interiors.

Lauren's style is so fresh to me and she focuses on putting things in your home that you love....and skipping all the extras. So right on! Yes!



Just look at her living room....
ahhh...it is pure lovely. It's to die for! I love it.

Look familiar? Probably because her home was photographed for Better Homes and Gardens Magazine this past December. If you missed the article you can read it and join me in my obsession of her blog here. I hope she wants lots of new readers because once you start you will be hooked!

Thank you Lauren for your home style inspiration!

Boots with the Fur.



I already thought my Sorel boots were pretty cool when I got them for Christmas...



But now that I've seen Elle MacPhearson prancing around in them, their cool factor and my pride have shot up just a bit I'm not going to lie.


I guess I should be careful not to trip!






(You know, pride goeth before the fall. haha. That was me trying to be funny.)








I do find it interesting however that we get such a rush from any type of celebrity connection what-so-ever that we then have to talk about it (ex: I ate at the SAME restaurant in the SAME booth as Patrick Dempsy in New York! I saw Meg Ryan in Nantucket! Bono looked at me at the U2 show I went to. I swear it!)







I wonder if we'd get the same rush if we knew Jennifer Aniston used Crest toothpaste.








Too!!!!!!







Does she by the way? Does anyone know?







*Sigh*....maybe it's just me.






Anyway, not to go on and on about this but while we are on the topic did you know one of my faux examples up there is true!?






Yes. One is true. And you have to guess.







This is all slightly tongue in cheek I hope you know....








But for the record I did really see Meg Ryan on Nantucket.







Now that I have those sexy boots I would like to convince my husband into letting me wear a coat like that one Elle has on. The first one not the second one. If the first one is like woah, then the second one is like woah. Read: Not so good. If both jackets are questionable than I'd even go for my grandmother's fox scarf. I'd like to wear that out. Out Out. You know, out of the house. Fur is so in right now and I happen to have a gold mine of vintage fur hand me downs (vintage fur seems less cruel to me than new, if this makes no sense to you than we can discuss at a later date).


Back to the jacket. Maybe I will just have to send my husband that photo of Elle. That should help.

I know that most people are going digital now...and I am sure that I will graduate one of these days, still I love to open a little book and see my day or month on paper. I like to make a list and cross things off. I like to doodle on the page corners when I am on hold...an I-phone can't give you that.

Is your date book paper or plastic?
