Happy Valentine's Day from my home:

another Target find

I brought this Target lamp home recently:

It's the perfect reading lamp for just $39.

I'm so glad I didn't get this one from Crate and Barrel for $229...

or this one from Pottery Barn for $149 ..... or this one from Restoration for $249.

Placing a knock-off lamp next to a designer chair is like wearing a Gap t-shirt with designer jeans, per my fashionista sister. More money for elsewhere. I think we all get excited over a good Target find!

L O V E the interior.... will report back when I try the food.

Copy Cat Chic

Thank you, Reichel at Copy Cat Chic for sharing my find today.

I own the CCC featured Pottery Barn lantern and paid full price for it. Ouch. I hate it when that happens. The lantern is over my dining room table and I love the way it looks though over my reclaimed table. Be sure to head over to http://www.copycatchic.com/ to check out my copy cat find.

first pics of the W Austin Residences

spacious, open views, large bedrooms...

Love this airy glass chandelier. I imagine the wide open view here is one of their best.

I love the chaise against the window and the styled bedside chest. The decor is simply romantic, not modern! Thank you.

The statue! It so works in marketing this loft. I dream of Max whisking me inside after a night on the town up to our condo in the city....

I like what I see compared to the The Austonian lofts (cramped and claustrophobic). I wish they shared the kitchens and price points. MLS search shows a 1 bedroom at $391K and a 3/3 with a view at $1.63K. I can't wait to see the W in person.
