I would describe my style at "cottage chic." I like to be comfortable but not frumpy. If you are worried about spending too much on furniture I would look into some thrift stores! I have been finding some great pieces there lately.

My rooms not 100% ideal for it (as in it could be bigger) but I can make it work. I see it as all my time spent in the living room will be spent on the sofa, so it's more important that it's really comfortable than it looks absolutely perfect.
And if I keep the rest of the room very minimal, then hopefully it shouldn't look too overcrowded.
In terms of making sure it fits in, I will just take lots of measurements to the stores with me!

The best interior design and circular stained glass skylight is necessary for house. It gives new and pretty looks of our house. I really like your theme style and design. Your bedroom color combination is prefect. I love every thing.

I totally agree. I wanted to buy a huge couch last month just because I wanted a piece of furniture that would take a big part of my living room. Seemed like it wasn't big enough in the store but when I got home with it didn't fit. Damn those big stores!
