Calming art of Amenity Home

Our house is coming along nicely, despite all the snow storms we've been having here. Not that I'm a home decor junkie (my sister-in-law is one ;), I can't help but think about all the ways I can decorate the new place. I want my home to be calm, relaxing and comforting, to melt away the work stress as soon as I come home. And I'm so not into weird paintings and stuff. Check out Amenity Home accents at NIMLI, when I'm looking at these, a wave of calmness just comes over me.

Tankfarm Dancing Horses T-shirt $51 $13 and Tankfarm Sahara Long T-shirt $51 $13. These Tankfarm t-shirts are just hilarious. They will for sure put get a laugh out of your gift-recipient. I'd wear them as dresses and they would look totaly adorable with a shrug, a knitted cape, or a pashmina.

Click Cowlneck K-Way Pocket Roomy Dress $20. Epic cowlneck! The girl's practically swimming in this dress, lol. But there's something quite quirky and cute about it.

Pink & Grey V-Neck Long Cardigan $20. Right now I love the loose relaxed cardigan look as opposed to the tight form-fitting cardigan. The cuffed sleeves are adorable. It feels young whereas the fitted cardigan feels mature and "sweater-puppy-ish" if you know what I mean, not that it's a bad things, it depends what look you are going for I guess.

Urban Decay Afterglow Powder Blush, Quickie $17. Urban Decay has some of the best blush powders. The color goes on true and smooth, and it stays on all day. Any girlfriend would love to get one.

CARGO DailyGloss Lip Gloss - 30 Day Supply $12. CARGO has such an ingenious idea. You can break open a different color of gloss everyday. Great for travel. Oh remember last Christmas they started making those cute GlossyGreetings™ Tags and GlossyGreetings™ Cards? They are such great ideas, this year I'll be sure to get more.

Morn Creations Panda Rug $20. So totally cute for a play room (or computer room for me. Imagine putting your feet on the soft rug :)
