I cannot wait to show you a makeover I just finished of the sitting room in my bedroom.
It all started with a mirror and ended with blue and white and yellow.
Don’t you love a makeover story that starts like that?
See I’ve challenged myself to take pictures of my outfits every day. In an effort to use more of what I have and to maximize my closet, I’m trying out a new app that helps you put outfits together. It’s called Smart Closet and you upload what’s in your closet and it organizes it for you.
But to do that?
You need pictures.
And to take pictures?
You need a mirror.
A really big oversized mirror that allows you to get the entire outfit in the frame. And in amazing news? I found this one. It’s 27″ wide by 70″ long and it’s so pretty and the PERFECT size for outfit taking.
And just when I loaded the mirror in the cart and was about to head home?
I turned around and saw THIS.
Now you if you’ve met me for more than a hot minute, you know how much I LOVE BLUE AND WHITE.
From the top of my head to the bottom of my toes.
Which are currently standing on this blue and white bit of amazingness.
The blue and white rug which matches perfectly with this floral pillow.
I already showed y’all this pillow at the beach house.
But I LOVE IT SO MUCH that I had to get another one for home.
The floral pillow which matches perfectly with these yellow striped pillows that I found.
And the best part?
They are reversible.
The other side is yellow and white stripe.
And they are under $13.
I almost never use yellow in decorating, but they were so cute I couldn’t help it.
And the yellow was so cute I found this square pouf for the corner of the room and these yellow pillows for the bed.
They look so high end and each of the four corners has a tassel.
You can see the pillows here.
I also found these gray and white baskets to organize the bookshelves in the sitting area around the television.
They are the perfect size for holding books and papers and other supplies.
And they help keep the bookshelf looking neat.
And just I was headed out the door?
I found the CUTEST little white planters.
They have a hole at the bottom for drainage and they are curved inside so you can fit even more plant in.
And now?
I brought it all home and put it all together.
Want to see what blue and white and yellow all look like together?
Remember? The one that started it all?
IT WORKS PERFECTLY.
Even better than I expected.
Want to see?
Here’s a selfie of the room.
And here’s a selfie of a person who is very excited.
Excited about the mirror.
Excited about the new blue and white rug.
Excited about a new look for the bedroom.
But most of all?
Excited about all the outfits that are to come. 🙂

Love,love,love!
Love it all! But most especially those yellow striped pillows and the cute baskets. Oh, and that adorable outfit!!
WOW! Your bedroom looks great! Love all of your finds and how they add that sprinkle of happiness to your room. GREAT!!! Wondering - where did you find your white quilted pillow shams with the pom-poms on your bed? Have a wonderful day!
Love this Its so uplifting and welcoming I look forward to reading your post every day And now Im running to Wal Mart to buy some new pillows!
Everything looks gorgeous.....including YOU! I love your enthusiasm and wish you could come to my house and make it look like yours! I love color; especially these happy colors!
My favorite color is yellow so, of course, I love this new decorating course you took!!!
Love the summer color scheme for your room. The change just feels like happiness. The pillow reminds me of zinnias and their beautiful colors.
Love the floral pillow. Is the big flower blue or teal? Your photos it appears blue and on the Walmart website it appears teal.
Oh my god, I’ve been looking for pillows in these colors and today I get your email post! I’m ordering them as soon as I finish this! Thank you for linking them because I didn’t know where to look! They’re beautiful, and so is your guest bedroom!
Oh KariAnne, I love it all but my fav is the flowered pillow. I have to tell you that I too shop just like you. I go in to find one thing and before I get to the check out counter something calls to me, "Cher, come over here!". And then as soon as I get close to it, it jumps into my cart. This happens more that once sometime and I may not even find the item I went in for. It's tragic but I've learned to live with it. Love & Blessings
I was looking at that rug thinking, hmmm I might like that for my bedroom or my screened-in side porch and then I realized OMG! I BOUGHT THAT RUG IN THE SPRING AND KIND OF FORGOT ABOUT IT! I love yellow (occasionally) so I'm going to hustle out to Walmart and get me some yellow pillows. I go there every day anyway. I'm a couple of pillows away from a bedroom makeover. Oh happy day!
You and the room both look beautiful! And all that color looks so cheerful!
So so happy for you getting to celebrate the “new you”! You look fabulous and I know you must feel great too! I once heard you should have a little yellow in every room because it brings happiness!
It looks amazing, you are so adorable!!!
Happy to see you adding color to your life!
Darn, really wanted that rug you have. Oh well, found another that might work. I love your sitting room off the bedroom. Cosy asnd inviting. Beautiful with those pillows.
Love the blue and white! But the yellow, not so much! You have a beautiful home, but your bedroom is on my wish list. Are you ever going to tell us where you bought the blue and white jumpsuit?
Love the rug and mirror! Now I need to move around some furniture! See ya tomorrow night!
Where did you get the flowered pillow and tassel? I must be missing where that’s posted sorry I am probably rushing through
Love those finds! You had me a blue and yellow!
I like the pops of color, especially the floral pillow. Isn't it fun to change things up for the seasons?
The rug and yellow pillows!! What good finds. How could you not buy them??
So cheerful to wake up to! Please share the source of the white and natural dressers near your bed!
Love your happy smile in the mirror!!!
Love, love love love! I am so proud of you for punching things up with those gold/yellow pillows and the floral pillow. Everything looks so happy and cheerful. I'm going to have to check out those pillows as I decorate with red, gold and olive. And also....you look fantastic.
Miss Personality strikes again! And the bedroom shows it! Looks wonderful, sweetie! 😍
Walmart has really upped their game!! I love all of your goodies!!! I'm stoked about that mirror because I have been looking for a pretty one!! And the pouf price!!!! I need it!!
I never think much of using yellow in my home and I don't know why because as I look at your photos the yellow adds such nice dimension to the whole space and makes it even more cheerful!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing all of the new yellow:)
My mom's favorite color scheme. Her kitchen/living room has yellow walls with blue and white accessories/furniture. I need to share these ideas with her for more ideas.
What a joy to see your pretty room all decorated for summer. That blue and yellow is perfect.
I love it all!!! And you!! The yellow is so pretty!

You are the cutest ever, and your enthusiasm infuses everything, I can't help but be excited too! Love the changes, that floral pillow is a favorite, and what a great idea about the app! Thanks so much for sharing!
