Oh, hello. The move went fairly smoothly and took a surprisingly shorter time than last year (huge thanks to
Pei who helped me pack the day before). So the new place - shitty location, but I am pretty fond of the apartment. And although it is much smaller than the old place (the entire living room/my office space/kitchen/dining room totals 200 sq ft!), I think the space and layout are much more usable. I unpacked in record time - not a single box left. Last year, I swear I was digging out of boxes even months after the fact.
It's definitely a huge work in progress, but for now, lemme share a few iPhone photos of it. (Sorry if you've already seen most of these on Instagram!). Oh speaking of Instagram, did you catch
my video interview with The Daily in their #NoFilter series? It was both fun and terrifying being in front of the lens. Thank goodness for video editing. :)
Oh wow! You'll have to add interior decorating on your CV. Saw the video and let me see it again or in the words of my 6 year old - you were amazing!
ReplyDeleteAll this time you were talking about Instagram, I never thought of it until recently. Anyway, better late than never. I've just followed you there. I'm cookiesncandies on Instagram. Keep up the great work!
DeleteJust gorgeous, Alice! What an eye you have!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and sunny! You will make your new apartment into a home in no time, Alice :) And congrats on unpacking so quickly! I moved into Chris's place in... January? One box and many piles left...
ReplyDeletei really like that white box shaped shelf you have! you have really good taste in interior decorating.
ReplyDeletelovely first impressions of your new home. i love the rug.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to visit!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the move Alice. Looks like you're putting your own touches on it already!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear about your smooth transition. Your space looks simply beautiful ! Kudos to you ! Going to see your daily interview.
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. We have been in our place for almost a year now and although all the boxes are unpacked it certainly doesn't look as homey as yours does.
ReplyDeleteyay for the move going smoothly & your new space looks lovely :)
ReplyDeleteLove your furnishings! Your place looks lovely :)
ReplyDeleteGah I love your taste! : )
ReplyDelete-Erin

ReplyDeletewow you move to a new place, congrats.
ReplyDeletethe new place looks gorgeous and the video is lovely! It's always nice to 'hear' a blogger I've read for so long. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI moved 4-months ago, and, yeah, still got the boxes...
love the white space, so simplistic.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely little space. I love the light that all of the windows let in!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I just found your blog via a blog comment on Oh Joy! and then a posting on Amy Blogs Chow (I love how everything in the blogging community is connected) and it's amazing. Your photography is incredible and your posts are full of great content!
you did great making this space look more than 200 sq feet! i personally prefer smaller space cuz it feels cozy and also forces you to decide what you really want to keep (not to mention less electric bill for heating/cooling - that's the practical side of me :) really love the photo of J with that dramatic shadow on the wall.
ReplyDeleteRemember that ready-made garments are much less costly when outdoor wedding dresses compared to people who usually are custom-made.
