Yesterday morning was one of those blissfully peaceful mornings. We ate poached eggs for breakfast with fresh white toast and sat on the couch sipping hot coffee whilst the sun streamed in our apartment windows. I wish every morning was Sunday morning!
I remembered that I promised I would give you a sneak peek of our new place soon, so I took a few pics to share with you now.
I remembered that I promised I would give you a sneak peek of our new place soon, so I took a few pics to share with you now.
We're still getting settled into the place. But we're already in love with the views over the park below, something that we really love about Songdo is the abundance of outdoor space.
My fiance and I both have quite similar taste when it comes to furnishing our apartment. He mainly leaves it up to me though. His only request was that this one was more 'manly' than our last apartment. I guess I'd inadvertently made the last one quite feminine, ooops!
We already had the couch and TV table so I'm planning to base the colour scheme around those things. I prefer a neutral look of creams, black and brown. I've already added some touches of silver I had from our previous apartment (and the flowers) to give it just that hint of girlyness that I love. I'm still looking for a big floor lamp for this room and something to fill the walls but apart from that it's just small trinkets and soft furnishings that it needs. They're something that can easily be accumulated with time though.
At about 3pm we started to feel guilty for not doing anything! So, just to keep our consciences clear, we got ready and headed out for a walk in the park. We'd been deceived by the blue skies though, it was minus five degrees centigrade! We weren't dressed for that so the walk got put on hold and we headed for coffee instead. Not very exciting but still a perfect relaxing Sunday for me.
What's your perfect Sunday like?

Your place is gorgeous, I love how you've decorated it, and the huge windows with the view - wow! x
ReplyDeleteThank you sweetie. I love the view, it's what made us choose this place! :)
Deleteyour place looks so lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteYour place is stunning!

Thanks hun :)
DeleteIt's my dream to live in a place like this. The view is stunning! xxx
ReplyDeletehttp://loolitopsboutique.blogspot.com/
Yeah, I feel very lucky to have a nice apartment and such a great view :) x
DeleteI love what you've done with the place - those massive windows are amazing!
ReplyDeleteI'd probably need a small room to fill with my clutter though, in order to keep the living room so minimalistic and chic! :p

Haha, I have a lot of drawers filled with my junk and I also use the spare bedroom as my closet/junk room!!

Your place looks beautiful. My boyfriend wants to move to Korea. I wasn't sure why until now. Do you love it? x
ReplyDeleteAt first I completely loved it, then the novelty wore off after about a year and a half and I started to miss home quite a bit. Now I've been here almost three years and I know a lot more that helps with living here (places to shop/eat/see, the culture etc) and so once again I love it. Life is pretty good for me here :)
DeleteYou should come for one year, most people who do really enjoy it. It is a fascinating country and very different to most other countries Ive visited!

Really love the look of your new place. I have exactly the same style when it comes to apartments :)
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike ;) x
DeleteYour place is lovely, beautifully decorated!

ReplyDeletejoanne from jimmilou.com
Yeah, the view is something I really liked when we saw this place at first. Even though this apartment is slightly smaller than some other apartments we saw I felt like the view more than made up for it, so we chose here! :)

Nope it's not Dubai, it is Korea, you read right! This is a new city, built in a very similar way to Dubai, sadly it's really cold here right now, no tanning on the beach for me :(

Thank your for your nice comment!
ReplyDeleteThat first picture is simply amazing, I really like this kind of style - chic, clean and elegant. And at the same time the colour palette is not too cold so that it is still made for actually living and not just looking (as I find are so many of those over-designes /polished interieurs!)
