I Tried To Make My Apartment Look More Expensive On The Cheap

Sian Butcher / BuzzFeed We hope you love the products we recommend! Just so you know, BuzzFeed may collect a share of sales from the links on this page. Like any member of the bourgeoisie, I demand to live a life surrounded by pretty things. I am an aesthetic creature . Forget grey communism , I want the gilded baubles and swishing silks of a doomed 19th- century Russian noble and I want them now. Unfortunately, my bourgeoisie lifestyle is being held up by a few little finance issues. Turns out that to be a bougie person, you need a bougie bank balance . It's not a sign-up-for-free kind of deal. So it's time to get good at faking it. As Marx says, to a bureaucrat the world is a mere object to be manipulated, but why just bureaucrats? Why can't a writer equipped with a basic editorial budget and a can of gold spray paint manipulate the world into believing she is a member of the 1%? Dream big and you can achieve anything, right? Besides, as they say, to make money you ne...

I think it’s safe to say we can all recognize a luxurious bathroom when we see it. Whether it’s because a bathroom is unusually spacious, decorated with expensive materials, stylish accent details or filled with light, our intuition tells us there’s something luxurious about it. But what exactly are the defining elements of luxury bathrooms? Lots of space. View in gallery A bathroom that’s as spacious as this one is inevitably luxurious, regardless of its design. But there’s more to this than just square footage. A bathroom can create the illusion of space by being minimalist and employing strategic features . Great views.

So when a bathroom has such huge windows and wonderful views, it stands out as being luxurious. Marble walls. View in gallery Luxurious bathrooms feature natural materials on their w...

In Haymarket Crossing , Stanley Martin is building a community of spacious three- bedroom townhouses in a tree-lined neighborhood that will have a pavilion, benches and two tot lots. (Benjamin C Tankersley for The Washington Post) With a population of about 2,000, the town of Haymarket is tucked away in Virginia’s Prince William County . A little-known fact to newer residents of the Washington area is that in the mid-1990s, the Walt Disney Co. purchased large amounts of land in the area for a proposed U.S. history theme park to be built in Haymarket, just several miles from Manassas National Battlefield Park . Local residents opposed the idea, and the controversial plan fell through. The bulk of the land was then sold to a local business executive , who sold it to developers. While there is no theme park, there are signs of a growing community that has also managed to retain a certain amount of small-town charm. Mary Scarpinito, originally from Long Island, has lived in Arli...

Luxury washes over the modern master bath

Today's master bath offers an escape into an oasis of soothing serenity. With less focus on utility and more on creating ambience, the master bath has been elevated to one of the most important rooms in the home. More furniture-style cabinetry and vanities, beautiful framed mirrors and decorative vessel sinks make this once sterile space feel like a luxurious living space in your home. Homeowners express their personalities here with art work, open shelving displaying favorite pieces or a tile choice that says "this is my style and who I am." And they might bring in more home decor items , small furniture pieces and an extra dose of luxury with a lavish chandelier. Here are some of the hottest trends for the master bath in today's new homes being built in the Chicago suburbs. Statement mirrors So long to medicine cabinets and hello to statement mirrors. Think large clear glass mirrors that make the room look larger -- wood fr...
