Since we spend a good part of our lives in bed, why not make it the most comfiest as possible. I like my bed to be welcoming and comfy as possible. I love my bedding. I've had for such a long time, even though every now and then I would like to change it, but when I look at it, I have some wonderful memories of my mom and I picking it out.
The foundation to a good bed is the mattress and box springs and then you build up by deciding on what size of bed you want from a twin to a California King.
Then after choosing what size of bed you want and can afford, get the best sheets you can afford. 500 count and above are the best. Macy's has the best 500 count sheets by Charter Club. They are on the pricy side, but so worth it.
Lastly, then comes the comforter and pillows galore!!! If you can't afford a new comforter/bed spread, why not make a duvet cover. Its usually cheaper than buying something totally new and you can have a one of a kind. You have better chance of having something no one else is going to have and its more your style and taste than what you'll find in stores.
I find the pictures below inspiring for my bed and I hope it inspires you as well.

Beautiful Vanities
One thing I enjoy looking at in both fashion, makeup and décor magazines are vanities. I like to see how they have been decorated and done up. Did they put family heirlooms and pictures on it or did they put different keepsakes and treasures they found while traveling. I keep some jewelry, a heart shaped box, a purple turtle lamp, and some perfume on my vanity.

Beautiful Closets
If you're going to have an amazing wardrobe, you should have a closet that follows suit. I believe a closet is the foundation to help build a nice, stylish wardrobe, like a certain outfit beckons for a new pair of shoes.To me personally, a walk-in closet is a must. I have lots of beautiful clothes and I like to make my closet look like a nice small boutique. If you have to go in your closet every day to pick out clothes to get dressed, your closet should be well organized, clean and clutter free.
I live in an apartment, and thankfully I have a walk-in. My closet is big enough to hold a small shelf that displays my perfume, scarves and some hair magazines. Its also big enough to stash my ever growing collection of fashion magazines, as well as my shoes.
