Happy (fantasy) Weekend!

Gosh, I've never been so happy to see a weekend in all my days.  I swear this week has been one giant festival of suck.  Crankiness has ruled my house, my car decided it doesn't want to start easily (it's going to the shop Monday), hubby working all the time and mommy and toddler are kind of sick of being around each other 24/7 - LOL!  Luckily we are going to be having visitors this weekend and then Mother's Day Out starts up in less than 2 weeks - yay!  We all just need a change of routine and scenery.  If I had my way, I would be camped out in a lovely hotel for a weekend, dressed up and eating out (no cooking or clean up)!  Here's what I would love to wear for fancy eating:

And here's where I would like to stay (it's called "The Nines" and of course it's in Portland, Oregon which would be waaaay out of the way for moi - but again, this is my fantasy).  Isn't it just beautiful?  I adore the colors! (more pics in my post here).
Here's to a better week ahead!  See you all Monday - hopefully with a morning post that actually makes sense - ha!  I'm thinking that next week may be the "Week of Chambray" - check back in Monday and see what I mean...

Color coincidence

I'm a magazine-aholic and I had pulled some images over the past few weeks and just stacked them on my desk. I was sifting through them today and noticed a very interesting color palette that emerged. A grey/spa blue/turquoise/silver combination. This also ties in very nicely with my post about The Nines hotel and their gorgeous guest rooms. I really like it!

Amazing Hotel Alert!

Reception

I was flipping through March's Hospitality Design magazine and ran across a feature about a hotel in Portland, Oregon called the Nines. Oh my gosh, it is beautiful! Designed By SERA Architects and decorated by ForrestPerkins it is LEED Silver. The colors are outstanding! Makes me want to plan a trip to Portland. Do enjoy the luxury!
