We've been in our San Francisco apartment for a little over a month now, and I think it's safe to say that I have gotten a lot done in this short amount of time. It's amazing what some existing furniture and will to decorate will do! While I'm feeling comfortable and at home in our new space, there is still a lot to be done, and I think the rest will come slowly but surely. For now, I wanted to share what we have managed to put together in the space to date.
Our couple decor vibe is urban modern with hints of humor. I typically run everything by Andrew but I try to manage to add the tiniest little bit of glam eclectic since I buy everything anyway. This new San Francisco apartment is approximately double the size of our Rockridge apartment, so we needed to buy new furniture to fill the space. It helps that I have been dreaming about accent chairs and dining tables since we were in our little 400 sq. ft. apartment so I was able to pull the trigger relatively quickly, especially when I found things on sale during Black Friday.
LIVING ROOM.

These Goop x CB2 chairs have been on my lust list for a while now. They are so large and comfy and I would sit in them every time I went into a CB2. We had already signed our lease by Black Friday but we wouldn't be moving in until mid-December. I went ahead and ordered the chairs and our new dining table because CB2's buy more save more sale was too good of a deal to pass up. I ended up saving around $550 on the two chairs and the dining table! That's almost the price of one of the items! While I will admit this is more than I've ever spent on furniture before, it is furniture that I have been thinking about for months if not years and they bring me joy to look at, sit on, and use. If anyone else is considering buying furniture from CB2, I would also advise waiting until one of these sales. I shall report back if they happen on any other occasion other than Black Friday.
I'm also still looking for the perfect pedestal table to replace that Pier 1 table between the CB2 chairs, which is just sort of a placeholder for now. I currently have my eye on this one from DWR.
