Onomie prides itself on bridging the gap between skincare and makeup. For ladies who like to keep it simple, this approach gets us. It also happens to look quite beautiful thanks to their minimalist branding. I was lucky to receive their complete complexion trio courtesy of a sweet gal-pal and was instantly smitten with the Onomie experience.  For one, the extra

Whether you love marble or have grown tired of it's overuse, it's fair to say that a colorful alternative would be welcome.

In an earlier post I went over rug combos for our living & dining room area and I'm pleased to say that we love how our choices turned out.

There's something alluring about naive-culture inspired art meeting the established style of Matisse.
