mid-century modern

i have been totally crushing over this mid-century-modern style lately. i think what i love most is the simplicity of the style, but also really love pieces with a vintage flare. i love the chair in the first photo and found a similar one here. what styles have you been liking lately?

on valentines we got a new coffee table and foot stool from a second hand store called elemente’ and are very much mid-century-modern {i will show pictures once we pick up the coffee table}, for under 200$. don’t you just love second hand stores? they are the best for finding the coolest pieces. cam and i will be going back in the future for more furniture purchases {even if he doesn’t know it yet}.
hope your thursday is filled with some design inspiration!

to do list:
grocery shopping
relax/sleep
catch up on the bachelor
play with kramer
send some snail mail 
dream big 



the good and the bad:
the bad- running out of bones for the kramer {he is addicted} my face spazing out {oh the joys of being a woman} 
the good- being able to spend some quality time as a family just snuggling and watching the boob tube. finding my long lost rose bud salve in a purse i hadn’t used for a while {my lips and hands will thank me}. waking up to a warm home and a snow dusted street with a donut and cup of hot chocolate {healthy and delicious}

have a wonderfully thoughtful tuesday
