Fur Baby – More Or Less

October 18, 2016 by robincharmagne 4 Comments

Hi Pretties,
Fur Chairs are all the rage right now. A warm seat as the temps begin to drop! This chair is a modern luxe look in gold and sheepskin. Fur might ring memories of furry dice; but it can really add texture to an otherwise flat space.

CHAIR 1//CHAIR 2

Both chairs are pricey but one will set you back just a bit less. When you really want to add something special to your space, add a pretty fur baby like this chair. Are you adding fur to your decor?

Forest Beds – More Or Less

October 13, 2015 by robincharmagne 4 Comments

Hello,
How’s everyone doing? I worked yesterday but if you had a day of rest, I hope you made the most of it! Today we are talking home decor costs. I posted about money not being a factor in decorating. But, there’s a flip side to that statement because there are times when you may want to spend more on a home decor item. For today’s More Or Less, take a peek at these beds.

Now these are some fancy pants beds. They are canopy beds in a rustic style with whimsical details reminiscent of a forest. The head-board and the foot-board are quite ornate with life-like leaves and branches. One of these beds is over $5,000 and one is over $10,000. Yes ma’am that is some mega money for a place to sleep, but there are some occasions where you may splurge on a home decor item that is custom-made or has a unique design. If you consider that you will spend an exorbitant amount of time in your bedroom, then you should make that room aesthetically pleasing.

We talked about price points and even among higher end items, it pays to do your homework. In this example, you can save at least $5,000 by purchasing the lesser priced bed in a similar design. Did you guess which bed is less than $10,000?

Nesting Tables – More Or Less

September 22, 2015 by robincharmagne 6 Comments

Hello,
I recently posted about affordable decorating and how money does not have to be the driving factor when sprucing up your space. When calculating your decorating budget, remember that most home decor goods come in a range of price points. You have to decide how you want to spend your money. Today I’m bringing back the More or Less feature where we look at two items one high and one low. Let’s look at these nesting tables.

Desk Chairs – More Or Less

March 10, 2015 by robincharmagne 2 Comments

Hello,
I’ve been considering doing a mini office makeover. A space where I can blog, photograph, and create. My current space really doesn’t meet my needs so the first purchase I’m pondering over is a new desk chair. I have a very good chair, but it’s not pretty, functional but not pretty. For today’s More Or Less, and I haven’t done one of these posts in a while so I was overdue, checkout two options for a white desk chair.

More OR Less (similar)

I really like the pleated details on the back of the first chair but I like the sleek arms on the second chair. Both of these desk chairs appear to be comfortable, but I would not purchase without doing a real life sit-down. My days are spent in my chair so it has to feel comfy on my bottom and go up and down with ease and whirl around with ease. I whirl a lot on those long, boring conference calls…IJS.

Between these two choices, I’d have to go with the Less version for $200. My only concern is spills on a white chair. It looks more sturdy and more comfy and worth the investment.

Which would you choose?

More Or Less…White Desks

December 16, 2014 by robincharmagne 2 Comments

Hello,
Is the week dragging by to y’all? It’s just Tuesday, dang. But Tuesdays brings back the More or Less feature. I haven’t posted one in a few weeks so I thought I’d share these goodies today, the white desk. I have seen these in a lot of blogger offices but for me, a white desk is a little too pristine. I need a desk I don’t mind spilling something on or getting dirty. However, if you’re looking for a pretty, sorta girly desk, then the white desk is it. These are in a shiny, glossy white and feature drawers with “X” legs. The price points are pretty far apart to the tune of $600 bucks. I really like the Less version with the metallic legs. Gives the desk a more modern feel. The sleek drawer pulls also give it that modern look.

Which version would you splurge on?

More Or Less…Placemats

beaded placemats

More OR Less

Hello,
Halloween is next week! Are you wearing a costume? If you are, very cool. But next week signals the beginning of holiday decorating at my house. I usually start in the dining room with a pretty table. These placemats could take your holiday decorating from Halloween right up to New Year’s. These two options are really close but in this comparison I might select the More version placemat. With a beaded item, I would need to see it in person to inspect the quality of the bead work. I think that would make the difference in price and choice for me. Just add pretty dinnerware and glassware and you’re set. Check out some pretty goodies for holiday decorating from Belk, just click below!

Are you ready to start holiday decorating? Or am I early?? LOL!

More OR Less…Decorative Accents

More OR Less

Hello,
The last day September, three more months until year’s end. Oh my word, where did the last nine months go?? But, there’s always time to decorate. Today’s More Or Less features decorative accents, you know the icing on your home decor cake. Decorative accents give any room that little oomph that makes your decor stand out. These decorative spheres are perfect accents for the living room, dining room, or even a bedroom. These two are very similar with very dissimilar price tags. I like both of these but that $10 buck price tag is calling me. The More version is from Williams-Sonoma Home and is sold out! I can’t imagine who paid that kinda money for that kinda thing. The Less version is from Target, but due to its popularity, it is only available in stores….

More OR Less…Metal Beds

More OR Less
Hi Pretties,
How’s the week treating y’all so far? You already know I’m counting down to Friday at 5:31pm! But until then, today’s More OR Less is all about metal beds. The metal construction and simple lines give these two beds a less traditional look, but not extremely masculine or even feminine. The styling is really close on these beds. The biggest difference is the finials and center detail on the More option. For these two beds, it would just depend on how much money you would be willing to spend. I’m torn, but since money is an object, I’d go with the Less version. If I was decorating a room around the finials, then I would definitely choose the More version.

Which one would you choose?

More Or Less…Accent Tables

More Or Less
Hello,
I hope you are having a great start to your week! Lets talk accent tables, that little extra flavor you add to a living room or a den. An accent table doesn’t have to be a big ol thing that takes up a lot of space. These accent tables are small but functional with a nice wooden tray top. Big enough to use for your laptop, tablet, or a tasty snack. I’m torn on these accent tables but I think I really like the More version better. It looks a lot more sleek and expensive than the Less version.

Which one would you buy?

More Or Less…Mirror

Hi Pretties,
Don’t ya’ love 3 day weekends! How was yours? I love those weekends where I have a good meal and a good movie and time with my family and friends!! I’ll take more of those please!

Today’s More or Less is a cute mirror for the bathroom or wherever you get cute! This mirror is in a nice black matte finish and has a twirl motif to give it some pizzazz. There are two sides magnification – one side normal and the other side is 8 times magnification, great for cleaning up those brows. Now that’s a great mirror. The Less mirror is my choice, the difference is $24 bucks, but hey that’s $24 bucks. But if you are loyal to the Macy’s brand, snag a coupon and get this mirror for less.

Are you brand loyal? Would you buy a more expensive product to support your favorite brand?

Oh pretties, this is my blog anniversary month so I’ll be sharing some fun things on the blog a giveaway and much more – check back for the deets!
