Celebrity Gossip: June 12 to 17

OK kiddies. I know it has been a while since I have put out one of these so here is a little one.

Hef and Crystal in happier times (Photo Source:

- Hugh Hefner and fiance Crystal Harris have called it quits days before their wedding (June 18). Is anyone really surprised? Crystal says she called it off although it ended up being mutual. She says she decided she did not want to live that lifestyle and Hugh said he was only getting married to her because that is what he thought she wanted. No worries though kiddies, Crystal will prevail. Prepare for her album which she is working on... (People)

- Denise Richards is to pen a book (coming out July 27th) about the - and I quote from her - "beautiful love story" that was initially her relationship with Charlie Sheen, according to Perez Hilton. Hhhmmmm. She says she thinks a lot of woman can relate to her experience both the good and bad times. Hhhhmmm again...

 - Sean Bean (Sharpe, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings) got stabbed for standing up to a dude who made leud comments towards a Playboy playmate in the bar .(People) After receiving first aid, he reportedly ordered another drink. And why not I ask you! Also, I wonder if he got lucky after that, huh?

- According to all news outlets, Natalie Portman had a baby boy! No names yet being reported. Can't wait to hear what she names him. I figure Natalie is pretty normal so I am hoping she chooses a unique yet realistic name. Very interested to hear what she chooses. She also has said she will be staying out of the spotlight for a while now that she has had her son. Good for her!

- I can't believe I am mentioning this but, Rebecca Black's Friday, the lovely "artist" behind her smash internet sensation (haha) hit, has been pulled from youtube. Oh no. How will we be able to tell what day of the week comes after Wed. I think I will survive.

What are your thoughts? Do you think Sean Bean is super gallant? Can you relate to Denise Richards? Are you upset since it will now be impossible to tell the days of the week?

Enjoy!

My New Space

Good morning kiddies,

As I previously told you, I have been so MIA lately cause I have been working on settling into my new space. Well I am finally done! And here is a look...


Above is a look at my room from just inside the door. You can't see my bed that is to the left too well. I decided to paint my walls two different shades of blue. One wall - to the left - is a bright turquoise colour. The other three walls are a complimenting light blue. The walls remind me of the ocean and they are very nice bright which helps in this basement room.

Most of the work of actually creating this room was done by my parents. I did the finishing touches like paint (the first coat) and where things should go. My rents put up the walls, put down the floor, put in the ceiling, light fixtures etc. They did a wonderful job!



Here is the turquoise accent wall. I decided to hang up some of my art in a configuration like this because I really like symmetry and also, I thought the pot lights would hit them at the right angle to really make them pop. I think my couch looks phenomenal against this colour. I am hoping to get some pops of pink throughout the room eventually. It is still a work in progress.


Above and below are my books. You know how addicted I am to them well they need a prominent place to be displayed. I have been thinking about replacing the bookshelves with more classical looking shelving in white. This I think will have to wait for now.



I love that elephant below and above. I got it at Home Sense and when I saw it, I HAD TO HAVE IT!!



-

Below is a TV stand I recently bought at IKEA. I love the lines of it and the hardware. Even though I am in a basement room with only one small window, I wanted to make the most of it. I decided to hang my full drapes up (as you can see below) in order to create the illusion of height. I think it makes the ceiling look higher. Also, the colour goes very nicely with the paint.



I know I still have that silly lamp. It has actually grown on me. I might remove it but for now, I will keep it. So many people who see it really like it.



Now we are into the bedroom portion of my room.



Above is where the magic happends - my closet BUT I will get into that in a later post.

Now for the details in the room. Below is the central light fixture of the room. I love it. Super modern and clean. It also puts out a lot of light which is so necessary in a basement room.



Here is my bedside wall lamp. I love the shade. I find it clean, modern and still feminine. I also have a stand up version next the couch - you can see it in a photo above.



Now to show off the wonderful floors my rents put in for me. I was not a huge fan of the colour originally, but I think it looks awesome with the paint and my furniture.



So kiddies, what are your thoughts on my space? Worth my slight abandonment of you? I promise I will try and put out more posts more often.

Why I have been so MIA lately...

Hello kiddies,

I am so sorry I have been so MIA lately. Some big changes in my life: I moved so I have been very busy with that. I was a little in denial about (since I did not mention it to you all previously). I moved out of my lovely apartment back home to a new lovely room to save some money. So I have been decorating that, unpacking and assimilating Holly my chaton into the new environment ( my parents have animals so that has been interesting).

I promise I will have some new posts and pics up soon.
