MAN CAVE
Every man should have his own space somewhere in their home or office. A man cave needs to be comfortable, masculine and stylish. It should be a sanctuary where he can go and hang out with friends or just have some peace and quiet. No longer does this retreat have to be in the basement, it can now be a chic part of the house!
Check out these cozy, creative spots! After looking at all of these, I decided I need one too!

Black
In light of Halloween and Dia de los Muertos around the corner, the next couple weeks are dedicated to my favorite time of year. Not only do I love to scare myself and snack on chocolate, but I happen to love the color black in fashion and in home décor. Don't be frightened by the color, it can be extremely chic in the house. If done right by an accent wall or piece of furniture, it can add a sophisticated element to your home all year long. See these pics for some inspiration and a little scare!

San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
Hacienda style is as much a part of California architecture and décor as it is in Central and South America. True to its roots, the style is often expressed by white stucco walls and floors that alternate between ebony-stained wood and terra cotta tiles. The striking contrast is perfect for unique folk art and textiles.
These pictures below boast a unique Mexican hacienda 21st century style without compromising their original charm. The soaring ceilings with exposed rafters, brightly colored walls and colorful floor tiles represent the rustic simplicity of the style. Rustic furniture and rod iron light fixtures finishes the look to give it an original hacienda vibe.
