picnic time.

While we are on the topic of summer, how does a nice weekend picnic sound to you?  It sounds like heaven to me.  Time to bust out the gold flatware, a cheese plate and some bubbly.  

happy happy happy weekend!

summer getaway.

At the moment, I'm craving a little summer getaway.  Yay, yay, yay...I realize it's not quite summer yet, but I'm aching for it now.  I mean I'm not going to lie, I'm not exactly the girl that's waiting for the season to begin just so she can run off to the beach.  I will most definitely be hitting up the beach, but I will be the girl with a HUGE umbrella shading me.  But it's more then just the sun that summertime brings.  It brings about a certain carefree attitude, a vacation mode, a sense of new things to come.  I'm ready for that feeling and I believe that the anticipation deserves a new dress to go along with it. Don't you?  I do believe that this lovely little yellow number would do the trick.  Uhhh hello, add a cute sun hat and sandals...we are done.

By the way, after I wear the stunning yellow number on my summer vacation (ha, do you notice that I'm already pretending like it's mine?)...I will definitely doll it up with a statement necklace and some amaze heels.  If I'm going to buy a pricey dress, I get a lot of bang for my buck (aka I wear it every chance I get).

more chairs, pretty please.

First off, I have to say a super-huge-big thanks to everyone for the kind comments.  I'm so excited to be blogging again!  So, I thought I'd start off with my fave obsession, chairs.  Yes, I can't get enough of them.  I used to work for a furniture manufacturer, so I was lucky enough to have a pretty deep discount and purchase a few lovelies.  I have to admit, they are my happy place.

And my newest obsession has turned to poufs.  We have a gold moroccan pouf, but I'm itching for more.  Please help me, I can't stop.

hello.

Oh yay, remember that one time that I said I was going to start a blog called modern sequins?  Well, here it is!  Nothing too fancy, just a little place to talk about some of my favorite things.  So, why the name?  Well I'm more then slightly obsessed with modern design, and have a major love affair with sequins.  So I thought why not combine the two.  I'll be talking about my fave fashion finds.  Ummmmm, not gonna lie I'm not exactly a "high-end" shopper, but I swear even the cheapest of finds (cough cough, F21), can look expensive when you style your look right.  And I know I'll be sharing my lastest interior design obsessions.  Like I might even admit that I have a major chair problem.  As in, I can't stop buying them even if we have absolutely no more room in our apartment for them.  I hope you enjoy getting a little glimpse into my life with my hubby.

xo, Myka
