Pegboard High-End Vs Low-End

Pegboard is the trend in office storage.  Now that offices are turning into craftrooms Crate and Barrel has come out with a really overpriced pegboard.  The accessories are not that cute and the hardware store is not only a better resource for this type of storage system, but the price is unbeatable.  I have a silver pegboard in my office.  Do guys like the black or the white?  Tell us in the comments.

Punk Spiked Bracelets

Spikes are so 80s punk.  Fast forward twenty years and now they are chic.  For only $14.99 these bracelets would update a buttoned up suit and make it modern and fresh.  I love the pink gold one, which color is your favorite?  Tell us in the comments.

Stylish Steal: Acrylic Stool/Table

We seem to get a lot more hits when we post acrylic furniture deals, so we will continue to feature this type of furniture.

This stool/accent table is a great example of how a small piece can transform a room.  Its smart to invest in a couple “splurge” pieces and save money on things like couches.  A moderately priced couch with exquisite pillows and luxe accessories  for example looks better than an empty room with a lone, expensive couch.

I really like this as a side table or nightstand even.  Its petite, but it also has some storage.  For $89.70, you just can’t beat the price.

Cheap Cheeky Pillows at Zara Home

These adorable and FUN pillows are not only a great deal, they are a chic way to have fun with decor.  While I can see the red heart pillow in a child’s room, it would be especially fun in an all white living room.  Would you buy a pillow like these for the living room?  I would! Tell us what you think in the comments.

Steals: Black & White 1920’s & 1960’s Era Dresses

 Check out these great deals on black and white 20s and 60s dresses. Downtown Abbey inspired me to look for a modern take on  drop-waist dresses.  Drop-waist dresses are not for everyone, they are for women that are very thin.  Because of this, I’ve traveled forward to the sixties to provide a couple of mod dresses that flatter all shapes and sizes.

Though I wish I could wear the white drop-waist dress, I have to say I prefer the mod houndstooth dress.  Do you think 20s dresses are unflattering?  Let us know in the comments.

Cheap Clear Acrylic Modern End Tables

These chic yet cheap end tables are a way to integrate modern upscale design into your space without spending a lot of money.  These tables are a great deal and are at about the same price that a regular side-table retails at, but they lend a high-end aesthetic to any room.

I personally dig the nesting tables, they would be great for entertaining.  Which one is your favorite?  Do you guys even like acrylic?

While there are always concerns about yellowing over time, even if yellow, these tables are classic yet modern at the same time.
