Apartments of the Past

August 2, 2010

Looking back through my old photos it was funny to me to see how much my style has changed (or stayed the same) over time. Here are a few photos that chronicle my apartment living life over the past five years. I found out, oddly enough, that I have absolutely no photos– not even one– of an apartment I lived in before this current one.

Here are a few of my first apartment in the city, small but cozy. I believe the building used to be a hotel.

Not much space to work with here, but I crammed in the essentials.


I moved the table into this little nook, which used to be a closet.


These are the days before I owned a bed. Nothing like an air mattress on the floor. I was pretty into the white back then, but having pets put the kibosh on that.

I also lived in another apartment in the same building I’m in now. It was my favorite apartment ever. Spacious and lots of light!

Note the pre-cats white furniture. Looks nice when there isn’t cat barf and fur all over it. I still love all those accent colors.

Dining room and library. The theme was orange.

I think I still like a lot of the same things, but its funny to see how I got into certain colors or styles over time. Some people keep the same decor for decades, but I can’t seem to keep the same decor for more than a few months. I guess that’s why I feel compelled to buy used!
