I’ve been living in new apartment for just under two months now. All the rooms are done-ish, meaning that each one has at least one or two little things that I want to find or fix up somehow. The main thing my office is missing is lockers. I’ve been looking like crazy for them but haven’t found the right ones yet. I just can’t get over the idea of having them, so much so that I keep putting off my housewarming party. Must. Find. Lockers!
Even though I’m still working on the rest of this room I wanted to share some photos of my vanity area today. Since I took the bigger of the two bedrooms for my office there wasn’t really room for my vanity in my bedroom. My office has two windows that, as luck would have it, my vanity fits perfectly between. I knew immediately that’s where it was going. Since those two windows get the best lighting out of all the others in the apartment, it was obvious where my plants would go. So basically, it’s an amazing little area. I feel like a goddess everyday while putting on my make-up surrounded by plants.
I love it here. Seriously, this apartment is just perfect. Can’t wait to share more photos of it as I find the finishing touches for each room!

I'm drooling, I'm desperate for a vanity but I either my mom has to die or I have to find one I like enough to buy!!! Yours is perfect!!! I also use timeless skin!
Uhhh, you should probably keep hunting for one. 😛
I love all the plants — they always seem to add a little extra. 🙂
Oh, definitely! I'm a plant nut.
I love all the greenery! I've been wanting to purchase sturdy plants to put in my office, to make it feel more "homey". You've inspired me to go ahead and do so!
Yes! Go out and do it today! Plants make everything better.
Oh, I love this space! Those jewelry holder hands are to-die-for and that gold turtle is too cute!

Aren't they!? The hands were kind of expensive for what they are but they were one of those things that I just had to have. They're too good!
Your apartment looks so cozy. You must feel like you're in a mystical forest every time you sit at your vanity to put your makeup on.
Thanks! It does, I love it.
nice… those hands are great 🙂
Aren't they awesome?!
I actually love these coloured walls with your stuff.
Can't believe you made the place look so beautiful in a mere two months. Please keep posting things like this. I love your style of interior decorating. So damn perfect!
Thanks, Elise. Me too! I definitely wasn't fond of them at first but now I can't imagine having white walls.
Love your decor, wow! The dark furniture and gold accents look sooo good with all the cacti (which I adore as well!). Your cat is too cute.

Thanks, Paige! 🙂
I cannot even begin to explain how much I love this. Beautiful.
Thanks, Johnna! 🙂
It's beautiful! The plants would make me feel like the queen of the desert! Also, how cute are the turtles 🙂

Thanks!
Love this! The colours of those plants are divine! Makes me want to fill my home with plants even more, when I get one (my own house) the day I go plant shopping with be the best!
Thanks! Plants definitely make any space infinitely better. Wish I could have them in every room.
I love those hands!! And all the symmetry you have going on – excellent.
Thanks!
I really like your vanity bench. Did you thrift it?
Thanks! Nope, there's a link to it in the post. 😉
I'm sure I'm just missing it but I can't seem to find the link for the bench under the vanity/writing desk. Did it come with the desk?
Ohh!!! I am so sorry! I thought you meant the vanity itself, like you'd call something a "work bench" I though you were calling it a vanity bench. Hah.
Aaaaanyway, its from Target, and last I saw I think it was on clearance.
Sorry again about that. Brain fart! 😛
I see many lipsticks in your drawer! Can you do a beauty post of the products you use and recommend? You might already have one, I just couldn't find it under the FAQ. Thanks! I always love the pictures.
I've been thinking about doing that a lot lately! I'll definitely move it higher up the list. 🙂
Gorgeous! I need a real vanity area. I'm working with a small bedside cabinet table thing as my storage and a stool in front of my full-length mirror. It works, but isn't ideal!

Thanks, Kim! Yeah, nothing beats having a nice dedicated area to doing your hair + make up. I've never been the type of person to be able to do it in front of the bathroom mirror.
You easily have the best, most well-curated collection of lovely things that I have ever had the pleasure of viewing. Serious apartment envy.
Aw, thank you so much Kayla!
🙂
Wow, wonderful honey! I looove your site, just discovered your blog and I am sooo impressed 🙂

Thanks, Colli!
Firstly, this whole set-up is GORGEOUS. Secondly, weird thing to notice, but are you sad that the St. Ives exfoliating pads are discontinued? :'(
I've actually never used them. I'm not very brand loyal when it comes to that kind of stuff.
I'm going to go cry in a corner now seeing how beautiful you put this space together. You have a creative mind and you are always inspiring <3
That light! Love how you set it up in the new place. Perfect spot for bird patrol, right? 🙂
