So many bloggers are buzzing with excitement about Rue Magazine, which will launch next month. I was already a fan of the founders’ blogs for their impeccable tastes (Plush Palate, Sacramento Street & The City Sage) and seeing ShelterPop’s sneak peak certainly whet my appetite for the complete first issue!

Let me count the ways I love this bedroom: 1) the chandelier-in-the-bedroom trend, done differently, 2) the pristine whites mixed up with antique and more ornate touches such as the frames and mirrors 3) the U.S. Mail pillows – are those vintage mail bags??, 4) the framed butterfly collections on the floor next to each nightstand, 5) the sunburst mirror above the bed is SO pretty and 6) I just want to jump in that bed! And sleep in it.

Betsy Burnham, of Burnham Design, has created a seriously lovely home.. Featured below is the fab bedroom she designed for her teenage daughter, Carson. I love all of the quirky and colourful touches. Would love to live in such a lively home!

Lots of light +  lots of white + sparse furnishings = a splendid bedroom.

At the moment, I am loving colourful chairs in neutral settings,

brushtroke motifs on tops,

quirky wine-label design,

wooden walls and hues of blues,

summery hats,

cute notebooks for scribbling your thoughts,

this amazing bedroom,

and vintage swimming caps.
