Decor to Die For: We heart S&M inspired ..


Maybe it's because our BF is gone in a far away land...or maybe it's because deep down we are a little naughty..or maybe it's just because we are bad gals at heart but what ever the reason...
We super heart on a slutty Level...S&M inspired decor!



This is a pic of the cool Hilton sister's, master bedroom! Soooo rad! Maybe a wee bit too themed but that bed is on another level!
Oh and we will lake that bench any day too ;)

Oh, and another thing...you will notice most of the S&M inspired things we heart are black and white...that doesn't mean they only come in b&w...we think it's just because we saw Coco Before Chanel and besides ordering "How To Learn French" cds and wearing only black and white for a week now, we keep picking black and white furniture...sorry...blame Coco.

And away we go...off to naughty naughty land...

The best way to do S&M in your home is by delicately mixing it in with other styles so it's provocative and not, "Oh yes, I did just get home from the fetish ball...why do you ask?"



Hello perfect patent leather chairs. How are you today? Chic? Yes you are...
We love the simplicity of these black glossy chairs we found on 1st Dibs. They are totally understated...well except for the shiny leather :) These could totally go with almost any decor...you just need a set of balls. (Wow! This S&M post is making us feisty!)

OMG...OMG...OMG...This settee makes me feel bad all over!
Glossy white patent leather settee with perfect black piping? Really? Prim and Proper mixed with lust and sex? Wow...perfect combo. Now if only it wasn't more than most peoples rent for a year, we would LOVE to put this in our picture window (super shmancy).

OK...we need to warn you..what you are about to see may cause you to faint or scream out in totally ecstasy like we did...or maybe it was a huge gasp and frantic search on how to get our polished paws on one...
You were warned... NO WORDS...there are none at all except for...how the heck can we get one of these from the Plastic Fantastic collection?!?!?!?!?!
It is a rubber coated settee...yup...rubberized! And the best part? It comes in sooo many bright and glorious colors. Done and done and d-d-d-done!


Now for the piece that was the real inspiration for this post...from the one...the only...our fake BF, Sir Jonathan Adler....
His black patent leather Regent Ottoman coffee table is sooooooo good...soooooo slutty (in the best possible way).
It magically changes an entire room...and takes it from boooorrriiinnngg to Tres Chic!...now if only we didn't have cats that would lurve to claw this up ;(...
Oh..hi...we will totally take that Lust pillow too Mr Adler...thanks!

Not everything S&M inspired have to be patent leather...take this glossy black mirrored table for instance...

And paired with those scandalous (faux) croc chairs? Uh huh... sex at dinner time!


Wowzers! These high wingback chairs are deliciously sinful.

Leave it to our go to store Room Service to create such amazing pieces. These would look amazing on either side of a fireplace or at the ends of a prim and proper table...soooo Alice in Wonderland gone bad...


Want a smaller piece? A more delicate version of the naughty ones above?
Brocade Home's white patent leather tufted cube is great. You can throw it in any room for a little extra oomph.


Not read to GATW (Go All The Way)? This amazing poster is perfection!


It will glam up and sexify even the most prim and proper rooms...

If that poster is not sexy or S&M enough for your innocent little soul...how about this gorgeous photograph from the fashion worlds most naughty and fetish obsessed man, Mr. Helmut Newton (RIP sir...)


The perfection of the beautiful woman with a horse saddle on her back while wearing riding boots is fantastical!

Now for our most favorite piece in the whole entire post and maybe ever...
We would die to have this in our bedroom (OMFG...how SLUTTY!!!!!!)

The girly pink neon spelling such a dirty word is TDF! From Tapp Francke for Voltz Clarke...

Still not ready to take step into the land of titillation? How about this beautiful and sexy Absinthe candle from DL&co?

And that black box holding the stunning apple green candle...yummy.

Or maybe just take a bath with this little guy...he's naughty enough for the whole bathtub...no need for you to even get in!

Cuteness...

Be bold! Let out your inner naughty gal...your fetish loving self...
OK, well how about just your more sexy side...go S&M or go home...;) hee hee

Monday: I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world... Neon makeup!


Listen, I am going to be totally honest with you. Up until I hit 30 (yep!) Miss Me's  makeup routine consisted of: face lotion, lip gloss, and if I was feeling wild...black Cover Girl eyeliner along the inner rim of my eyes. 
(Well, there was that brief stint in '91 with Revlon's Toast of New York lipstick, but ALL the girls in junior high were doing it, I swear!)

So, needless to say, my makeup advice is not coming at you with a wealth of experience behind it. But, I know what I like, I know what I want to try and I know what I think is beautiful. You can take these suggestions with that confession in mind.  
Lets get into it with my favorite new makeup trend. Neon makeup! Wow, I really never, ever, never, ever thought that the neon craze would raise it's head again... I lived through the days of day-glow zinc oxide, I was happy to see it go. So imagine how surprised I was all these years later to find that I was happy to see it come back! 

I just think it can look so pretty when you do this trend the right way. Like Eve in this photo above, who would have thought that electric blue eye makeup could look so fresh and light and pretty. You have to pick either the eyes or the lips and go heavy on that area, then go super light on the other. Because if you do both you will end up looking like this. And honestly who needs that? (Please check link, as I was so obviously NOT talking about Ri-Ri) 

Do as the painfully, absurdly beautiful Rihanna does here with the prettiest of hot pink lipstick shades. She keeps it simple with clean black eye makeup and a light blush. 

Another pretty pink pout on Alexis Bledel. This bright pink makes her eyes look SO blue! 

Want to try out the super pink lip? Here are a few great choices. 



Makeup Forever has this beautiful slick gloss, love all the colors but try Fuchsia, Bright Pink, Violet or Tangerine. 


For a more opaque look, try this Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited lipstick. They have a new collection of 9 shades of pink, formulated with an innovative pink hybrid pigment. Yeah, I guess that means that this color goes on really pink, not watered down with any other colors. This is pure pink ultra smooth 8 hour wear lipstick.With all these beautiful shades of pink, you are sure to find your perfect match.  Sounds like a win-win to me. 


You could also try M.I.A's amazing 2 tone lipstick from the cover of Spin. So amazing! 

Moving on to eyes, this is is the most adorable little Rainbow Bright pallet of eye shadows I have ever seen! I would buy this Pop Beauty Lid Neon, just to have it sit out on my bathroom counter... But maybe I should try and use it to achive something like this look from Gucci's Spring 2009 runway show. 


WOW!! Super sexy, sultry and bold. I wonder if I have the balls to try this look out. I wonder if you do? Why not? At least lets practice it in the bathroom alone a few times and see how we do. If it doesn't work out, we can always go with the safe route. 
These amazing colors from Essie's neon collection is available in a mini 4 pack so you can try them all and have them around for handy touch ups. 

Have fun, I know I will!
