In the Beginning...

Welcome! I’m Dominique and thank you for stopping by! 
I’m not the best with introductions so let’s jump right into the good stuff.
Having a love for fashion and glamor doesn’t stop at your physical appearance. It usually spills into every aspect of your life and I am no exception to that rule. Especially, when it comes to decorating, I simply LOVE everything about it.
So, it all started a few years ago when we were preparing to move into our town-home.  I was fine with the traditional warm and soothing influence of the Mediterranean regions.  I received many compliments from guests but, I wanted something that better reflected my personality, something with a little more oomph (like me lol). If you know me it’s no secret that I like elegance, sophistication, things that shimmer and sparkle. So, it’s no shocker that I’m goo-goo eyes over the glam of old Hollywood.  Really the theme was set without even giving it much thought.
Just look at the beautiful inspiration photos I found while researching. How could you not love this look?




As you’ve probably guessed, these photos are oozing money, and my budget simply cannot deal. So, at first I was a lil’ discouraged but, never fear Google is here (using my best superhero narrator voice). Through searching the world-wide-web I have stumbled across many like-minded individuals that have given me more than enough inspiration to achieve the look without breaking the bank. I simply plan to share it all with you because sharing is caring! J
 “How,” do you ask? It’s simple, by DIYing, upcycling, bargain-hunting, and using a little elbow grease (lol). Just kidding on the elbow grease but some of these projects requires patience and effort but, if you can do that you will be fine. So stay tuned for more….
