Leather Furniture Favorites

| By New Darlings

New Darlings - Boho Midcentury Living RoomWe’ve always been fans of the classic look of leather furniture. Before moving in to our new place, we had planned what pieces we were going to bring along from our old apartment as well as some new purchases.  On the top of that list of new purchases was our leather sofa.  It was a piece we had both wanted for quite some time and we’re happy to say it’s still one of our favorites in our home. When we moved in and finished setting everything up, I was that nervous (maybe slightly OCD) person who cringed when a guest plopped themselves on the couch or chair in our living room. I had visions of scratches and deep rips setting into the furniture. “Did they have keys on their jeans or maybe a big ‘ol fancy belt buckle that would destroy the new furniture?” It was pretty comical and a bit neurotic, to say the least.

In the City

| By New Darlings

New Darlings - Uber Drive PartnersAs we continue to travel more, we find ourselves flying to different cities for work or leisure vs road tripping (even though we’ve been dreaming of getting back on the road, possibly driving up to the PNW…we’ll see). Flying is great, and we always try to stay at a hotel or airbnb that’s close to where we’ll be exploring, but sometimes you just need to drive to that restaurant that’s on the other side of town or beat the heat on the way back to your hotel. Uber has been a life-saver for us on many of our trips and even locally in Arizona.  Phoenix doesn’t have the best public transit system, although they have been talking about extending the light-rail — keep your fingers crossed for us! 😉Read More
