Plasticland Favorites

One of my new favorite online shops is Plasticland. You may remember that I purchased the most awesome-sauce pink cuckoo clock there for my new pink room. Well, they don’t just have housewares. They have a variety of amazingly fun and retro items to choose from. And here are some of my most recent favorites:

P91126702

Watermelon Mini Skirt – $44

Can I get one in every color under the sun? I would literally wear this skirt every single day.

P91117901

Bardot Platform Pumps -$39

Oh heck yes. Pair this with a black dress or with a pair of skinny jeans and you will get all the right kind of stares.

P00209018

Decorated Tin Cupcake Carrier – $36

Being a big fan of baking and eating cupcakes, I often struggle with how I will transport them to parties or to my office. This is the most perfect and adorable solution ever.

Think Pink!

Now that we are in the process of applying for a loan (not fun) and scheduling a home inspection, the prospect of finally owning a home is starting to sink in. Although it is not official yet, I’m letting myself start gathering inspiration and start thinking of how I’d like to decorate the house. I can’t help myself – it’s so fun! Not to mention something I have been dreaming about for quite some time now. In order to minimize arguments, the hubs and I have decided to split the two extra bedrooms. The hubs takes one, I take one. We can decorate that room in whatever way we wish and then collaborate for the rest of the house. We decided almost instantaneously: the hubs would claim the office and I would tackle the guest room. Sorry guys, no baby room for a couple more years! 😉

I’ve always wanted to have a bright pink kitschy room. What better to house our guests (or ridiculously drunk friends that can’t drive home) than a bright, sunshine-y room that makes you smile? Absolutely nothing! These are some great inspiration pictures that I have collected that are helping me get my thoughts together on what I’d like to do:

I also just recently bought this flippin’ amazing cuckoo clock off my new favorite online store, PlasticLand:

How great would this look in my future room?? The best part is the price – I couldn’t believe it was only $15!! Made me a little more hopeful that I will be able to find hip alternatives to more high end decor items.
