<i>"oh hello new West Elm magazine!"</i> is what I said upon opening my mail box Tuesday evening. Since then, I have been thinking long and hard about all of the beautiful new pieces West Elm has <i>blessed</i> us with. Yes, trust me, it's good. I have always loved the simplicity and clean lines that you find browsing in West Elm.... but they have added a little oomph lately that I am <i>digging</i>. Check out my new favorite things from West Elm below. If you should decide to purchase one <i>(or all)</i> of these items... please let me know and send photos so that I can live vicariously through you!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westelm.com/products/essex-sofa-g190/?cm_sp=cathero-_-livingroom-_-hero?cm_src=hero">this</a> was the first thing that made me swoon...

It would work beautifully in so many different spaces- check out all of the fabric swatches- they're pretty fab.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4xNwSMB1p0A2iuf0wBuqj5fEHMQXg6geSTXdKi9k1j9fFWmW6SwFyQrVj8zpwZx7xZsTVG_Ff7gNhl5yW5Wqi6hktiIxHwomu8s2dOMrjA9b_L2wlKqSt1QjcqJGj8zRQhns8UprBi2lO/s1600/abode+love+essex+sofa+west+elm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4xNwSMB1p0A2iuf0wBuqj5fEHMQXg6geSTXdKi9k1j9fFWmW6SwFyQrVj8zpwZx7xZsTVG_Ff7gNhl5yW5Wqi6hktiIxHwomu8s2dOMrjA9b_L2wlKqSt1QjcqJGj8zRQhns8UprBi2lO/s400/abode+love+essex+sofa+west+elm.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">I just really love the shape of <a href="http://www.westelm.com/products/drum-sconce-w576/?pkey=cpendant-sconce-lamps-chandeliers">these</a> sconces- I like that they're big, they make a statement with those drum shades, but the delicate swan neck keeps them from being bulky.
