Apartment Tour & Fall Decor

At long last I'm going to share some pics of my apartment. Side note: This whole blogging thing is harder to keep up with then I originally thought!!!

Since it is now October I also have a couple pics of some fall decor we currently have up. Fall is my all time FAVORITE season- boots, scarves, candy corn, Halloween, Thanksgiving/Christmas right around the corner-- it doesn't get any better folks!

Below is a picture of our family room/kitchen area. I love how open the space is. We would love to put some color on these plain white walls, but since we are just renting we're not sure we want to go through the trouble of having to paint everything back to white before moving out. So alas...we are stuck with boring white walls. However, we're seriously considering painting a chevron or big striped accent wall above the "bon appetit" sign on the kitchen island (Inspiration found on Pinterest here).Thoughts?

We are BIG fans of these adorable baskets from Target for storing blankets, pillows, etc. Not only are they adorable but they have chalkboard nameplates that you can write creative things on. Side story: For our sister's bachelorette party we wrote "Naughty" on one basket and "Nice" on the other so guests could place their present within the appropriate basket- more to come on that in a later post :)



Door in the family room area out to our balcony. 


Last but not least a few pics of some of our festive decor. 


I'm still finalizing some decorating details in my bedroom and bathroom so the tour of that portion of the apartment will come in a later post! And I'll have to get permission from my roomie/sis Cait before posting pics of her room and bathroom.... Whattaya say Cait? :)

I'm in a pickle about which headboard to get for my room but very much leaning towards this one. Still doing some research though. Any headboard suggestions would be much appreciated!

Be back in another few months SOON! Happy Wednesday.
