Main Room

I live in a studio apartment in Santa Monica. Probably been here for 2 years. Following my break-up from a very nice guy, who I was with for 9 years, where we lived together "in sin" for the last three years, and I broke up with because he did not want to get married (Thank God!), I promised myself that whereever I live I would furnish and design it the way I, I, I, I like it. When you live with someone you have to take their taste into consideration. And when it came to taste, ours were so drastically different that I would get so frustrated. I wanted to paint the walls, but he wanted to keep them white, using the excuse that we were going to be buying a house and there was no need to waste money decorating the apartment. I felt stifled. Is that a word? Anyway, I have not looked back. Wherever I live I want color! Not bland-ass white. So far I've painted my bathroom yellow, my hallway sienna and my main room beige and royal blue. Here's a little hint.
