My friend Michelle and her Family, came down to Newport from Seattle over the Easter Break. Don't ask me how she found it, but they rented this adorable Mid-Century Beach Cottage. It's located one block off the beach on The Balboa Peninsula. The entire cottage was done in flea market and garage sale finds, redone or re-upholstered in super cute colors that were bright and fun.
I was blown away at how well thought out this interior was. It really inspired me to add color and kitchy details to our house. I get so damn tired of beige's and browns, neutral this, muted that....
Michelle and I went through the whole place, looking for labels and tags on everything. The woman who did the decor, bought a lot of the accessories at places like Anthropology and American Rag et Cie, so it wasn't entirely second hand stuff.
What I really liked is that there were no rules used. No specific color palette or theme, just art and finds that make you smile....
