Mi Apartamento Esta en el Otro 'blog'

Totally not sure if my title is correct, anyone speak Spanish, Sealaura? Feel free to correct me if I am wrong! The reason I write in Spanish this morning is because I was so honored and surprised to see pictures of my apartment featured in one of my favorite blogs from Spain, Con Encanto! I was scrolling down my blog roll, and bam - my living room! Now, my apartment really is nothing special, but how cool to see it in someone else's vision! Take a peek at her blog, I'm sure if you're a culture fiend like me you will appreciate seeing a Spanish perspective on design :)

Enjoy, and I will be back later this week with a post on one of my favorite shops, Dovecote, in Westport, CT and an interview with a favorite designer of mine I met at the NY Int'l Gift Fair!

Snowy beaches here in CT!
This photo was taken at my favorite, Fairfield Beach. I lived on this beach my senior year of college at Fairfield University. Our house was called the Pier 7 and there were seven girls crammed into a very small dilapidated bungalow but we didn't really care! 
I shared a child sized bunkbed with my best friend at 21 yrs. old :)

  1. I lived at the beach when I was 21, too. For me it was Ocean City, MD, with four other friends, in a place we called, "The Club". So much fun. :) (there's something just not right about seeing snow on the beach, BTW...) :)

  6. Hi Liz, your Spanish is perfect. I´m so grateful you mentioned my blog in yours. Your apartment is so cute that I decided to publish some of your photos and the comments in my blog are very good about it.
    Thanks for all and for your kindly words. Kisses from Spain. Ana

  8. La verdad que este departamento tiene muchas ventajas. El hecho de que esté cerca de la playa es muy importante porque uno generalmente se levanta bien temprano a la mañana para disfrutar del día la arena el mar y el sol y lo que menos quiere es tener que hacerse todo un recorrido para llegar encima cargando las cosas. Por otro lado, es importante lo del supermercado cerca que puede hacer todo mucho más facil cuando se trata de provisiones urgentes y necesidades. Por lo pronto, la casa parece muy linda, me recuerda a un Apartamento en buenos aires que alquilé hace unos años. El patio ideal para la ropa, el correr del aire y un matesito a la tarde.
    Me gustó mucho!
