    Thinking Outside the Boudoir: Sex and the City

    As you may have noticed the theme on My Little Boudoir this past week has  been Sex and the City, so why not continue with that theme for this month’s Thinking Outside the Boudoir series post. For those of you just recently visiting My Little Boudoir, Thinking Outside the Boudoir, is a series where I post each month a home from the movies that I admire. While some may not be practical for everyday life, or represent my overall ideal decor, I would love to spend some time in them, even just for a night. In some it is the decor that I fancy.

    Thinking Outside the Boudoir: Breakfast at Tiffany’s

    If you haven’t already noticed, the theme at My Little Boudoir recently is Tiffany & Co.

    Thinking Outside the Boudoir: The Prince and the Showgirl

    If you saw my first post in the monthly series Thinking Outside the Boudoir, you will know that I have a fascination with certain homes in the movies.

    Thinking Outside the Boudoir: How to Marry a Millionaire

    Sometimes it’s about having more than just your Boudoir. It’s about having a fabulous home in general. We often see examples of extravagant homes we would love to own on TV or in the movies.  Though there are those that, while not super fancy, we still adore.

Each month, I will share with you a home from a movie or television show that fascinates me. This month, the home is from…
