Recently, I stopped wearing all black.

I don't know what happened. It might have been changing my blonde hair to dark red and then faded to black. Or maybe it's that I'm growing. You may not recognize me with my bright turquoise purse, emerald pashmina or red sunglasses, but I assure you I remain the same person I was when I rockin' the runways head to toe in onyx.

And this carried over into my life. All of sudden the muted, zen-like state of my place has been transformed with espresso comforters, red theatre chairs and plates the colours of neopolitan wafers.

And a great place to start is with these 4' x 6' rugs from Casual Living USA. They are all-weather so you can put one on both sides of the front door. They are made from recycled polyptopylene and are resistant to mold, mildew and fading.
