It's amazing what one free weekday will do for the soul! I'm back today with my "shelter loves" series. I'm all about clean color, spaces and design right now! I love the holidays and have had a great 2012 but I love the cathartic feeling of a fresh start and new year!<br /><br />1. I'm not jetting away this winter, I need to save, save, save but I still love all the inspiring, colorful resort lines. These<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/idq5pwjn"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">sandals</span></a> would work with almost any look. I'll have to keep them in mind for summer!<br />2. Yes please to fresh white, lace details and tassel sandals. I love everything about this photo.<br />3. Loving Ankasa's ikat print for <a href="http://www.beaconhilldesign.com/searches/search_book_results_detail.aspx?type=Fabric&book=520056"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">Beacon Hill.</span></a><br />4. + 6 A brass vintage lotus leaf lamp is certainly on my new home wish list. Look at these <a href="http://www.1stdibs.com/furniture_item_detail.php?id=698674"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;">stunners</span></a>.<br />5. A recent client pick for a teenage girl's bedroom.
