decorate by holly becker

Ahhh, i finally made it out to Wayne to get my copy of Holly Becker's Decorate at Anthropologie.  You probably already know this but Holly is the author of the beautiful & popular design blog Decor8, one of the first blogs i discovered about a year ago which got me thinking, where have i been, living under a rock? So into the blog world i delved and i've been very happy ever since swimming around in the sea of decor and lifestyle blogs...

I've never met Holly personally but I took one of her e-courses BYW and i hope to meet her when she comes to the U.S. (she's an American living in Germany with her cute German hubs) for one of her book tours...i am so looking forward to reading this one...i call Holly the 'Breck Girl'...here's why...

Makes me want to punch her (not really...holly is the sweetest girl!) because in order to get this look i have to tame my curly hair with 3 round brushes, a professional blowdryer and then curl it so it's not stick straight...if it's humid, forget it, i have to start all over...some girls have all the luck with the good-hair gene...congrats Holly, on the book that is! xocc ♣
