Oh My Heaven's To Betsey!

Good Morning Fashionista's!

I thought I'd talk today about my refreshingly fun Collection Heaven's To Betsey. 

Heavens to Betsey

Inspired by one of my favorite designers, this Collection is a fabulous take on a classic style. Having a weakness for pink and floral prints, I wanted to create a bedroom that was fun and stylish without being so classical or drab. I used this amazingly bright and colorful floral print with it's perfect pink background, and added some gold, and some leopard prints and VOILA! You have one of the our most fun Collections to date!And because this Collection is so popular, I figured I would instruct my lovelies on how to create a very similar room.

You know where to start...

 Let's choose the paint colors:
Benjamin Moore: Springtime Bloom(2079-40) / Sunburst(2023-40) / Yosemite Blue(2059-40) / Eccentric Lime (2027-30)

Pink and White Striped Wall
Now, for a room that has this bold floral print, I personally wouldn't want to take focus away from the bedding by making the walls over-powering. So maybe just paint the walls a solid color, and use the other paint colors for the accents and furniture. I would use the Springtime Bloom(which is a pink) for the walls. If you're thinking that pink is a little to dark to paint all the walls, then maybe doing vertical stripes on the walls every other and use the Springtime Bloom and Benjamin Moore's Pink Cherub (2079-60). This way, your room isnt over powered with the deeper pink, and it still doesn't take away from the bedding.Or, you can even just use the Springtime Bloom Pink and stripe it with the white walls, so there is a much strong contrast.

Now for the accessories... 


Once your room is painted, then you can move on to your accessories and furniture. You can alternate between the colors that we've chosen above, and paint things that you find and love, but don't yet match the room.

For furniture, if you're room is smaller, you can use something small yet fabulous, like our Glamtastic Storage Cube. Or our Ottoman in the Round - Kiwi to my Heart. Both are amazingly cute, and perfect for a smaller room!

Don't forget about picture frames and things like that either. We just received a ton of really cute and fun new things to our website this week.



Like our Le Petite Baroque Picture Frame - available in Pink and Turquoise, and even our new Mirrors, like the Lily XIV Mirror - Lime.




















Let there be Chandeliers!

It is no secret that I, Frankie, am obsessed with chandeliers. Every room in every home, apartment, and condo needs a chandelier. Even bathrooms. So of course I have at least three Chandelier's that would go wonderfully with this room!


Paris Flea Market Chandelier
Small Black Rose Beaded Chandelier
5 light Fuchsia Chandelier
 All three of them beautiful and all three of them are perfect for this Fabulous Collection!

Last but not least...

The Bedding. The absolutely glamorous bedding.









And there you have lovelies. Just some ways to use this inspired collection as your own inspiration, and pay homage to one of the most fabulous designers!

Oh My Heaven's to Betsey!
