let me tell you, miami cragislist is like shopping at your awesome gay uncle's garage sale. in other words it was awesome and kinda easy. especially given what court was after.
"I'm looking for a more grown up, sexy version of the Hollywood regency shtick...less palm beach more sexy. I want this to be a bachelorette cave that makes people want to have a gin and tonic in their best cocktail dresses and be scandalous later. Carrie in SATCs new apt with a Kara Mann edginess. U dig? Thx xo."
i used the images of carrie bradshaw's new apartment and a sexy kara mann bedroom as inspiration. here and here.
i found a lot of stuff that i know court will love and also some things that i thought were really cool and would soften up the modern edge she seeks.
silver leaf dresser- $650 waaay too much money but you could offer half. it is very awesome for you.
heart shaped lucite stool- $85 offer 50. love.
red rattan etagere- $35 great price. not sure how sturdy it is and it could be painted.
mid century lucite and brass table- $125. this is spectacular. offer 85.
hollywood regency king headboard- $100. areyoukiddingme???? i want this. i have a king bed.
pair of lucite end tables- $350. GORGEOUS! offer way less. but i would pay 300.
victorian chair- $145. very sexy if painted shiny black and wearing some gorgeous fabric. pair it with the chair below painted the same but with a different yet similar fabric then throw that brass and lucite table between them. and then consider your pants pooped.
victorian chair- $150. pair it with the above for that sexy edgy kara mann vibe. your new sitting area=dumbsville.
brass and glass bar cart- $159. yes. you get. offer 100.
(above) 4 black lacquer chairs- $160. great for extra seating.
lucite and glass table- $300. sexballs city.
4 regency chairs- $300. offer less. these chairs are unbelievable.
2 peach/coral lamps with lucite base- $50. change the shades or don't. but these are very unique and super sexy against your black wall. peach is going to make a major comeback. wait and see.
faux horn pendant- $75. very cool in an entry or hallway.
lucite rolling stool- $100. offer 50. sorry about all the lucite but there was just so much good lucite!!! and obviously i don't intend for you to ge all of it!!
black lacquered nightstands (2)- $185 OBO. great lines.
black asian lacquer dresser- $125 pretty hot. great under a flatscreen.
vintage brass bamboo base floor lamp- $25 this is a great choice for that area by your bed that's too small for a proper nightstand. this just needs a new shade and some polishing up. super cool.
brass and glass etagere- $85 golden girls chic.
go forth and craig!

HOW ON EARTH DID YOU FIND ALL THIS GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much, my whole apartment is fully decorated and it only took you a day, while I've lived here for almost 4 months!!!
J dizzle, I am emailing ppl as we speak to hold for me until Monday b/c I'm going out of town tomrrow.
thank you thank you thank you. thank you!!!
I was starting to wonder about you and the lucite...until you acknowledged. Glad you did. A piece or two here and there is good. Too much of a bad thing is...well, BAD!!!! Good stuff, though. Potential....
Your craig love posts are HOT. I check your blog several times a day waiting for the next morsel of design love. Amazingly good stuff.
thanks you guys! you are all awesomepants.
geez! it almost makes me want to move to miami! ...
not really. But fab stuff
i wish i had a gay uncle....
Court just wanted us all to die of craigslist envy and you are the assasin.
Well played, ladies.
Lucite goldmine! I check every day on mine and haven't found a one... Lucky city!
You are now branded and knighted the nation-wide craig's list shit. I mean that in a meaningful way x
I want that fucking lucite and glass table!!!!! I would seriously tear my cubicle out of my office with a hatchet if it meant that I could use that as a desk instead. I would also tear out my cubicle with a hatchet if it meant that I simply would not longer have a cubicle.....
because of you and your awesome craiglove, i not look at things i formerly scoffed at and ask myself, "WWJennyD?"
except, clearly, that was supposed to say "now" not "not"
xox,

Im in love with that bar cart. Heading to Miami this weekend. Makes me want to go Craigslist shopping...
Love the inspiration rooms. how can I read blogs every day and never have seen those?
Oooooooooooooh! Don't apologize for Lucite, just bring it on!
dang chica, you did it again. you got a nose or sixth sense for this treasure finding.
You bleed magic and genius.
I NEED 1000 BAR CARTS.
wow miami is a gold mine. that headboard is fabulous. and i think bar carts are going to take over the world!
you're so right about peach/blush tones making a comeback. and don't apologize for all the lucite, i'm practically drooling! if only craigslist could ship reliably...
This one is the hottest yet. Like smokin'!!!
