get the look: contemporary oceanfront beauty
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! It’s cold and rainy and gray today and it’s mornings like these that make me wish I was at the beach. There’s nothing cozier than curling up with a soft blanket, a cup of tea and watching the rain (or even better, snow!) fall on the sea. …

updated east coast chic: the zhush
As promised, a return to all things design and decor is in full effect and I can’t think of a better way to kick off blogging in 2015 than with one heck of a beauty of a home tour! As an east coast girl myself, I’ve always had an affinity for homes that echo traditional…

hgtv dream house – martha’s vineyard
Have you guys seen the HGTV dream home on Martha’s Vineyard yet? Let me tell you, it’s good. Really good. When it comes to beach houses, I’ll take small and cozy over sprawling McMansions any day of the week, but surprisingly, this home, despite its size, really does have a cottage feel. It’s classic New…

get the look: sleek mountain house
Let’s take a break from the Christmas posts and tour what is probably the most amazing mountain house I’ve ever seen, shall we? I’ve always had a bit of an obsession with a getaway in the mountains in the dead of winter. There’s something so comfy and cozy about holing up in a cabin in…

instagram inspiration: gadabout
One of my favorite house tours was a few years ago when Glitter Guide did a feature on then Charleston-based graphic designer Hanna Seabrook’s beautiful home.

I always look forward to the annual showhouses put out each year by my favorite design publications and since it’s no secret I love a beautiful beach house, I was especially excited to see the Coastal Living showhouse in Coronado, designed by LA-based Betsy Burnham and her partner, Max Humphrey. To be honest, I thought…

beautiful in bridgehampton
I’m a little behind in making my way through the last few month’s worth of design magazines (my stack is now twice as high as the basket they sit in!) so, last night I popped open a bottle of wine and started flipping through a couple and right away this renovated 19th century farmhouse in…

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I got a babysitter for the FIRST TIME since Baby Girl was born so we could go out and celebrate a friend’s birthday; given that Lydia is almost ten months old, you can imagine how big a deal this was for momma bear. There are still nights…

antique-filled in amagansett
Fall is finally starting to (slowly) creep its way to the south and I couldn’t be happier! I’ve been glued to my Pinterest page lately but, instead of fall decorations, I’ve been drooling over tailored spaces in neutral color palettes with lots of texture, beautiful antiques, and luxurious textiles. I’ve always been drawn to more…
