addicted.

Hi, my name is Becca and I'm addicted to shopping. There, I said it. My sister has been telling me this for years, but I refused to acknowledge it. But then I found myself in the shoe department at Nordstrom yesterday, eyes closed, breathing in the intoxicating smell of new shoes and it hit me, "Becca, you have a problem." I've heard that admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery...here's to hoping.

Last weekend I was out at Washington Family Ranch for a women's weekend. Although we arrived late on friday, skipped the sessions on saturday for some much needed time in the sun and only heard two talks, it was a lot of fun. Anytime I can get away and relax, especially out at the Ranch, it's a good time! Saturday night we had an 80's dinner and it was so fun to dress up and dance to 80's music. I was more of a 90's child considering the fact that I was 8 when the 80's were over, but I tell you, I kind of dig the 80's. The movies and music are BOMB; the clothes...not so great. We looked pretty great though!!

Last month my roommate Maria and best friend Stacy planned a birthday dinner for me at Henry's Tavern downtown in the Pearl District. It was a lot of fun to have some of my dearest friends come together and celebrate with me. Thanks my lovely friends!!

anthropologie.

I have a new obsession. It's a good thing that I don't have a lot of money because I would NOT be able to resist spending it at Anthropologie. They have the coolest stuff but it is so expensive. I have been itching to redecorate something, namely my room. I don't have the finances to do an overhaul, so instead I am just making myself crazy and drooling over the possibilities...

I love exposed brick. It is a secret dream of mine to live in a cool vintage apartment in either Chicago or NYC that has exposed brick.

I would love to take a square of this wallpaper, frame it and put in in a collage.


I LOVE these colors. I don't love the black paint, but the colors of the quilt and the chandelier are gorgeous!


I love the texture of this bedspread, the airy feel of the room, the chair and the vintage distressed dresser.


I love the headboard in this room. (The guy in the painting totally freaks me out.)


The brightness of the colors are this quilt are beautiful. I love the contrast of the colors and the complimentary throw pillows.


This shelf and frames above the bed are my favorite. The bedding is so simple, but the way that this is all put together is so amazing. When can I move in here?!
