Rich and Single

If I were rich and single I would have such a fabulous girlie and expensive home, it would make your head spin. But alas, I am neither rich nor single. And thus I am stuck with compromising my girlie flair for some masculine touches, and our budget constantly affects our decor. Trust me, I'm not complaining....I'm quite happy being married and poor:) But I'm just saying, I found a few inspirational pictures for my alter ego. You can enlarge some of these pictures to fully immerse yourself in all of their glory.

A FAB pink chandelier would be a focal point in my dining room. I mean, come on---it's dripping in bling, pink, and fabulosity:

Ah, Martha Stewart. Why are you such a genius?

Oh and if you thought I slaved away researching these beautiful photos, think again. I found ONE amazing blog and stole [er, featured] all of her pictures. The blog is called All Things Bright and Beautiful and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I promise not to be a copycat blog but I'm just in awe of everything on her site.
