Minimalist-Chic Apartment

How gorgeous is Athena Calderone’s Brooklyn apartment? I love the minimalist-chic style the interior designer conveyed through out the space. Not to mention the amazing light fixtures and works of art adorning the walls (plus have you seen her closet?!)

Be sure to check out Athena’s blog as well- you’ll be swooning! 

This & That: Chevron and Happy Hues

I love this gorgeous bedroom from Furbish Design Studio. The mixing of polka dots, chevron and happy blooms is so cheery. Blair, of Atlantic-Pacific blog achieves a similar aesthetic with this navy chevron top, pink hued pant and tons of accessories!

This & That: Watercolors

This beautiful hallway with watercolor-inspired wallpaper was recently featured in Lonny Magazine. I've become completely smitten with the look of this soft, dreamy pattern! What a brilliant way to dress up a hallway that may not receive as much attention as the other spaces in your home. With a few weeks left of the summer, it's also the perfect time to don a dress with a happy print, like this one by ECI New York.

Katie Armour's Apartment

I saw these photos of Katie Armour's apartment and fell in love with this darling space. How perfect is the living room mixed with gingham and animal print with a hint of purple? Not to mention her lovely office space. Be sure to check out Katie's blog and Matchbook Magazine for more inspiration.

I was thrilled that Elle Decor did a feature on Reese Witherspoon's California home. It is a beautiful space designed by Kristen Buckingham. I love the combination of vintage and modern pieces. It's no surprise that Reese has a chic and stylish home. Enjoy!

The Perfect Candle.

I recently purchased this Capri Blue Mercury Glass Jar Candle from Anthropologie. I needed a little gift to myself :) This candle perfectly captures the beauty of a flickering flame in its speckled glass jar. The scent is also stunning and lingers through out the house for hours. It contains hints of tropical fruits, lemons and limes and lightly exotic mountain greens. A candle as perfect as this makes a wonderful gift and also serves as a reminder to enjoy your relaxing evenings at home sitting in candlelight.

In Shelter Mag News...

February is already off to a great start! Two of my favorite shelter magazines announced some very exciting news...

Condé Nast announced today that they will be publishing a special edition of domino magazine on April 17th called "domino Quick Fixes." It will be filled with domino's "best home decorating stories, focusing on easy, often inexpensive changes that make a big difference."

Lonny, my favorite online shelter publication, also announced that they will be publishing monthly in May! Can't wait!

Currently Coveting: Chevron Stripes

Lately, I’ve been crazy about chevron stripes, the fun yet chic zig-zag pattern that seems to be turning up everywhere! I recently posted about classic black and white stripes, but chevron is a more funky and bold alternative!



Classic Black and White Chevron Stripes.



Chevron combined with pink is instant chic.



Grey + Chevron = Simple + Stylish



Pops of pink and yellow are perfect for work...or play!

Color Crush: Coral & Aqua

These shades of coral and aqua have me dreaming of spring!
