No Boys Allowed


After catching my boyfriend trying to hang an ice ax from a recent mountain-climbing trip on my wall (seriously guys, an AX), I've become increasingly anxious about the day when I'll need to accommodate my decor preferences to better suit a dude (in my case a wannabe Bear Grylls) or even worse -- a family. No more white textiles, delicate antiques, pink or sharp edges.

Yikes. Honestly, the whole prospect makes me a bit queasy. So while I give more thought to whether I should pitch Man vs. Apartment to HGTV or The Discovery Channel, I'll drool over this very girly, very glam home featured in the July House Beautiful.

Hmm, no ice ax here...I love the idea of blocking off an entrance with a shapely sofa and antiqued mirror to avoid a cold "subway-car" effect, and how great is the sunburst mirror that appears to float over the couch?
