The Stacking Componibili

ariannabelleblog-stylishstorage-Componibili-red
Compact in size, and made of plastic, the cylindrical “Componibili” Kartell unit is a stylish option for adding storage in a small bathroom. Although it was designed over forty years ago, it looks just as beautifully modern today as it did back then. Perfect for hiding unattractive grooming supplies, feminine products, extra toilet paper, and other items that might otherwise visually clutter the space.

Pillow Love: Get the Look for Less

I’ve admired the beautiful Sheesha pillows ever since I first saw ‘em in the living room below. Unfortunately though the price tag on these babies is a bit more than I am able and willing to shell out for a pillow. John Robshaw sells a 20×20 version (pictured below right) for $200 (each!) and Jayson Home and Garden sells ‘em for $250 for the 20×20 version and $345 for the 26×26 version (yikes!).

Recently I was excited to find a few pillows that have a similar look for much much less. West Elm sells the Bijoux Dots Pillow (below left) for $34.00, and Etsy seller The Home Centric sells the White Mirrors Throw Pillow (below right) for $33.20 as well as the Light Beige Reflections Throw Pillow for $33.20 to $39.90 (price depending on size).

Get the Look {for Less}: Olivia Palermo’s Living Room Tray

I can only imagine how much a vintage Hermes tray found in the Hamptons runs, but I’m willing to bet it’s nowhere near the $35 price tag of this lovely orange lacquered one.

A chic little affordable option for bringing in a pop of color don’t you think?

Get the Look {on a Budget}: Blue Chandeliers

I love blue chandeliers -they make gorgeous stand-out pieces…

…they can be pretty expensive though. Those made of murano glass, for example, can set you back a couple of thousands. Luckily there are more affordable options for getting the look.

This Crystal Drop Chandelier from Anthropologie is moderately priced at $998.00

This Hampton Bay Routtura 3-light chandelier in blue/chrome from Home Depot is a lovely little bargain at $106.00

This Blue Beaded Chandelier from Statements by J is a steal at $80.00 -it’s on sale right now {through Tuesday} over at HauteLook, reduced 55% from $179.00.

Beautiful, no? They’re the kind of pieces you could design a room around.

Hope you’re enjoying your weekend!

DIY: Deck Your Heels

Picture 8.jpgPicture 7.jpg

Although these kate spade heels are absolutely stunning, they sadly don’t fit within my budget right now. Fortunately, there’s great DIY potential. Maybe I’ll try decking out heels I already own by using an inexpensive brooch like these from Forever21.

Love the Look: White Coat + Mauve Handbag

I love white coats in general, but I particularly love how this one is styled in the photograph below. This woman is looking ultra chic with a mauve colored handbag, a lovely pair of heels, and fresh flowers in hand.

I’d love to find that exact coat (loove the cut!) and handbag, however the print on the image is so tiny I can barely read it, not to mention it was featured in Greek Vogue which means even if I found out where the pieces are from, I’d probably have to empty out my entire savings to be able to add them to my wardrobe :-/
Luckily, there are a few equally stylish alternatives for getting the look:

*There was also a pretty nice one I saw at Forever 21 that was no more than $50 but I couldn’t seem to find it online to link to this post :-/

Have a beautiful weekend!
