While I constantly claim that my student lifestyle relegates my interior design aesthetic to nil, I recently realized that it is more laziness than lifestyle. I don't have a design-point-of-view, rather my apartment is made up of furniture that was already there and Ikea necessities. I didn't think I was much of a nester, but when looking around my flat the other day, I realized I do have an aesthetic: haphazard. Books piled every which way on the bookshelf, a mantle overflowing with candles, pictures, and more books, a desk overrun with jewelry boxes that are over run with jewelry. Haphazard...or maybe just messy, but I kind of like it, which is why I was drawn to the various interiors in these editorials shot by Hugh Stewart . They are all a little scruffy round the edges, the eye darts around at all the visual stimuli, a bit like a Victorian haberdashery, disorganized but lovely just the same.

These are all so perfect! Trying to decorate our new place has a) made me miss Domino Magazine more than ever and b) made me realize how terrible I am when it comes to actually putting it all together. I know what I like when I see it, but I have no idea how to translate that to my life. Of course, it might have something to do with the fact that I have zero dollars to spend at the moment... Siiigh.
the black wall, fireplace and flowers? i am undone...

oh my god i want to live in all of these!! ive got the same sense of home decor style too, but i dont have school to blame the mess on... but if there was no mess, it wouldnt be the same. and something about sheets over a sofa thats just perfect (as long as the sheets arent white. then it looks like you didnt finish cleaning after painting.)
