{ 6 months - 4 looks! }

In July 2010 we moved into a new apartment in Los Angeles. Yesterday, I was looking at some of the pictures that I´ve taken while we lived there, and it made me realise that I´ve changed the colors quite often.

When we moved into this apartment in July I decorated the living room in turquoise and white. When I look at the pictures again now, I like the delicate and fresh look these two colors give. LA is very hot in the summer, and it´s nice to have colors that cools it all down.

 After a couple of months I got tired of the turquoise, and changed it to beige. This color also fit well with white, and it gave the living room a touch of autumn - just what I wanted.

Late autumn I needed a color change again, and this time I added purple and grey to all the white. Simply by changing some pillow covers and adding flowers to the candles, the livingroom got a new look.

In Nov/Des. I needed a change again, and this time I decorated the living room in black, white and grey. Even though these are cool colors, I think the depth of the dark colors give a cosiness together with wooden details and lots of candles.
I think this is the look that I want to start off with when we move into our new apartment in Norway in January.

If you want to see more of our home in LA, you can see it here and at my Stylizimo profile here.

Do you change the look of your living room often?

{ 10 different living rooms }

Since I´m moving soon, I think a lot about how I will decorate our living room. There are thousands of ways to decorate a living room, and many different styles.

Here you have 10 living rooms that are very pretty, but very different as well.

 Which living room do YOU see yourself live in?

Although I like many of these living rooms , my favorites are the "Natural" and the "Relaxed" and the "Modern"one. 

Later I will show you some thoughts around how I will decorate in our new apartment. Planning is almost as fun as decorating *smile*.
