God how I loved Iona's apartment! I still wish I lived there.

My favorite room was the living room with that fabulous couch, the black and white checked floor, Iona in her beehive.

*sigh*

The lightbulb lamp looks cool, but is an incredible fire hazard. Light bulbs break very easily, especially if cats or children are nearby.

I wore out my VHS copy of Pretty in Pink because I would rewind and freeze-frame on Iona's apartment so many times. It was solid early inspiration for decorating my own home.

I too wore out my VHS tape of Pretty in Pink - I cried the day I heard that little snap of tape - now I have it on DVD I can play it as much as I want!
