Ahhhh. I’m loving my new pouf. It is SO nice to be able to prop my feet up, AND it looks cute in the room.
I ordered my Moroccan Pouf from John Derian, but honestly I should have probably gone with the less expensive pouf from Tazi. I was fixated on the more expensive one, mostly because of this photo from Domino. I felt like I knew what to expect and I didn’t know if the other would look the same… though it probably would have. So I do feel a bit foolish now for spending so much on a footrest, but oh well. I do like it quite a bit.
from Janet: “I like the one you actually bought better than the other one. From the photo of the other one, it looks more round, with less structure. I rather like the shape of the one you actually bought.”
That’s what I was thinking too.
The rug is a cotton flatweave from Madeline Weinrib (I bought it at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC). We’ve had it for about a year and it’s held up well so far. It’s reversible too, so we can always flip it over and extend the life of it.
Oh, and those knee socks were from Target.
This is so cute! :) It’s amazing how marketing can affect our purchase choices. :-P
I have a question or favor? I’m not sure. But I was wondering if maybe you could post a list of your favorite websites for fabric if you happen to have a list. Pretty please? I’m having a hard time finding some good sites. I have a couple like, reprodepot and purl. And also maybe some wallpaper sites, like walnut wallpaper?
I would <3 you forever!
P.S. love the pouf!
Love it!!
love your blog!! i found you from the thinkbakery :)
I LOVE this, the light in the room is so pretty and you amaze me how you can make pink look sophisticated and not Barbie-ish. That alone is a talent work a bajillion bucks.

It’s very pink, but you definitely made it work with all the different textures. Love it!
Also, I have a favor to ask of you and your readers–I’m a poor college student, and desperately need homeowners to take this survey: http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/115813/tv-commercial-feedback
It’ll take no more than 10 minutes. Please! Thanks!
I love it! I want the Dark Green (actually looks more blue) John Derian pouf now. Lovely! You made the right decision, the JD pink option is a much nicer, softer color and the design on the top of the pouf is prettier too. Nothing worse than buyer’s remorse. You should feel good that you bought something you love!
Oh that’s too cute! Love it…
love the pouf! i think i really need a pouf now!
so cuuuuuuuuuuuute!
The one you bought is also a little taller than the cheaper version so I think you got the right one. If you’re going to spend money on a footrest, you want one that is the right height for the couch so you can really kick back and relax. It’s super cute, like the rest of your house!
Now, if only I can convince the husband to buy me a footrest like this for my birthday…
that’s so fun, I love it!
Heey! I came across your blog a few weeks ago and i love it!!! Also…I tried to e-mail you a few minutes ago because I had some questions about Pink Loves Brown, but it said the the verification codes weren’t working…soo hopefully you don’t have like 4 e-mails in your account all from me lol.
No posts in awhile. Maybe someone had a baby…
Ahh, pink.
Vanessa, I wondered the same thing! Perhaps the next post will be an announcement! :-)
I’m behind but that is gorgeous. I love the one in chocolate!
(hoping there’s a baby!)
Still here, and still pregnant! Sorry for the lack of posts last week, but no baby yet…
how is the pouf holding up? i’d love to get one but i want to know how the wear and tear on it goes. congrats on the bambino! she’s adorable!
It’s great!
I’m behind too but that is gorgeous. I love this one (pink)
Hi there!
Too bad “bohemia” does not offer the pink one. They have it on the banner but, not for sale.
I am pining away for a vintage world globe pouf.
