Styling and accessorizes in a home can make a huge different. It can really help show some of your personal style and personality. It don´t have to be something advanced, just a chair with some coffee table books and some fresh flower like the one on the picture will do! 

How do you style your home?

It was done to raise awareness of breast cancer and to benefit the fight for a cure. And of course it´s all pink! A portion of the room rate goes to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. I think this is such a good thing to do! And the room is so, so pretty!
