angela’s office renovation

I have wanted to renovate my office for what seems like forever. I haven’t yet because I am just not sure the look I want to go for. Living with my husband and four boys (yes, four boys), I want a space that is entirely my own. Dare I say, a space that may even repel the male species altogether?

With that in mind, I do know that I want the space to be significantly more feminine than the rest of my home.

Before any major change.

I found blinds and a rug. Progress!

And here are a couple of images that are serving as inspiration.

I have already purchased a similar rug and I love the idea of some sort of bed and chinoiserie wallpaper.  I wonder if I could fit a daybed in as a place to lie down and read or watch tv?

What about pink wallpaper?  That would definitely keep the boys out.

Well, wish me luck!

I have been a beauty junkie for what seems like forever, but before I did anything about it, I went to law school. (Yes, my life is a little like the reverse of Legally Blonde.) Then, I worked as a prosecutor in Sonoma County after which I moved to the DC area with my husband in ’97. I served as Majority Counsel to the Senate Banking Committee followed by a year-long stint at a lobbying firm. You get the picture. It was then that I decided to act on my dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Finding my favorite beauty products proved to be impossible without stepping foot in a mall–the horror. So, I decided to bring my favorites to Alexandria. A few trips to New York and a flight to France and Bellacara was born in March 2000.
