Perhaps inspired by the glitz of the New Year or the sequins littering last season's runway, but the color gold is everywhere. Less is more when it comes to metallics, but a pop of sparkle brings life into any space, and I'm completely enamored.

I completely have my eyes on this goldalicious anthropologie duvet cover. I love that store. I can find myself drooling over their beautiful products. I can't wait to buy this and sleep on it. :)
I've always wondered who's reach DWR is referring to.
@M'ELIZABETH - here's an interesting read on DWR

I guess the whole "within reach" part of the name never really meant price-wise, but referring more to access. The company became popular before wide-spread internet access to designer furniture and touted their ability to keep stock and ship within a short time-frame at a time when high end design often took months to procure (or was built to order). At least that's what I gathered! I was curious myself, I could never afford any of it...
Last month I purchased the Chilewich placemat and framed it in a simple Ikea frame. Beautiful "art" for less than 30 bucks! It turned out so great I even framed one for my parents for Christmas.
