Desk Obsession

Lately I have been loving desk designs. Simple, white desks are the ones that stick out to me the most. I love the simplicity and modern look they add to a room. Here are some of my favorite desk obsessions. 
I love the idea of having fresh flowers on your desk. 

Since the accessories are very minimal, you can get a way with a busy wall without the space feeling overdone.

Using a corner desk not in an actual corner can give you the chance to utilize wall space.

After seeing this ghost chair, I am not convinced I need one too! I need to make a trip to Ikea to get a ghost chair :)

Again, here is another version of a corner desk. This desk actually belongs to Carly Cristman. See her apartment tour here.

I hope this desk designs give you inspiration for your own workspace! 

Olympic Mania

For the past two weeks I have been glued to the TV... watching anything and everything Olympics! I especially love swimming, gymnastics and track. The most exciting part is that we saw history being made ... not once but twice!

First, Gabby Douglas is the first African-American to win gold in the women's all-around. Congrats Gabby!!

Then we saw Michael Phelps win his 22nd medal! Better watch out Michael, I think Missy will catch you!



What is your favorite event to watch at the 2012 London Olympics?

Going for the Manicure

While our USA athletes are in London competing for the gold, I have seen some rather creative "Olympic" nail designs that deserve a gold medal! I'd like to think I am creative enough to try some out for myself, but truth is they would probably come out looking terrible. Here are some of my favorite designs!

Talk about creative and a very stead hand!

Love how they incorporated the gold, silver and bronze medals! 

Cute way to cheer on both Great Britain and USA!!

There is absolutely no way I could every do this!

This is my favorite design! Love all the design and colors! 

What is your favorite "Olympic" nail design you have seen?
