Today, Ali from My Third True Love is here to talk about adding some sparkle to your home with metallic accents! How fun! I thought it was fitting that she discuss the jewels of the home since her Etsy shop features adorable jewelry. Ali and I became fast friends, bonding over similar work experiences in the post college days. We both worked as managers for Abercromie & Fitch, and were laughing over the to-low jeans we wore, and district managers who told us we needed more sexiness. Ah yes, the joys that company brought to my life. (please note sarcasm). At least it gave Ali and I an instant connnection! She is one of the sweetest bloggers out there with a heart of gold, so it is only fitting she is here talking about gold.
Hello to all of Cassie’s FABULOUS readers, I am so thrilled to be here!! When Cassie asked me to do a post about metallics, I have to be honest, I wasn’t sure if I could fit the bill. Then I started looking around my house, and new I was up for the challenge. Metallics aka “the jewels of the home.” BEAUTIFUL! Metallics are what I consider to be a neutral. Being a beach girl, I am constantly on the hunt for the perfect pair of silver flip flops (my Summer go-to footwear). As far as my home goes, trying to find that perfect metallic accessory is equally challenging and fun.
I want to first start off this post by saying that I am a VERY lucky girl. VERY lucky. I have an amazing husband, adorable healthy children, a roof over our heads, etc. That being said, there are some people in this world that are even luckier than I am. Case in point – my twin sister who was recently able to order these AMAZING metallic mirrored bedside tables from Potterybarn. Yes, you heard that right, there are actually people out there that get to shop at Potterybarn. I know. I’m just as shocked as you are, ha ha! Seriously, these bedside tables are the perfect example of “metallics gone REALLY right.” I can’t wait to see them in her beautiful space (& steal them in the middle of the night, ha ha). Ok, moving on.
(Silence is golden, please whisper if you must speak)
Regardless of if you choose flashy gold, mirrors, deep bronze, or silver, metallics are a MUST in any home. Make your home proud and sprinkle in some sparkle people! Mirrors & glitter & gold, OH MY!!
