a little bit of leopard

October 28, 2014

I’m a firm believer that every girl needs a little bit of leopard in her life.  For me, it all started with a fabulous pair of calf skin leopard print heels I got for my birthday and since, I’ve been in love with mixing the print in my wardrobe as well as home decor.  As…

October 22, 2014

The last few nights have been brutal, friends.  I seriously am dumbfounded at how my nine month old has the energy to run baby marathons every day with little nighttime sleep and less than 45-minute naps!  Last night, after another two hour stretch of trying to put the kabosh on her dance party, I took…

8 amazing entries

October 15, 2014

We’re about to give our entryway a little love and make some easy, inexpensive changes for some serious impact (can’t wait to show you!) As a result, I’ve been stalking my way through pinterest getting ideas and really, just satisfying my thirst for eye candy in the middle of the night when I’ve been up…

inspired: shiplap walls

September 5, 2014

We are in the process of adding an en-suite to our upstairs and while certain aspects of the design are still up in the air, I’m leaning heavily toward one thing for certain: planked, or “shiplap” walls in crisp white paint!  I really want a light, bright space, so instead of plain, white painted walls,…

ralph lauren paint is back at home depot!

August 15, 2014

The day Home Depot stopped carrying Ralph Lauren paint in order to make room for Martha Stewart’s line was, indeed, a sad one for me.  They had the most brilliant, saturated color palettes in every beautiful color from soft whites to the deepest, darkest, moodiest of blues.  Hoarding their paint swatches was the best part…

steven gambrel’s 18th century sea captain’s house

August 14, 2014

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a house tour, but it hasn’t been for lack of trying to find something worthy to write about, I promise.  It’s been my experience that oldies really are goodies and that the homes I find the most inspirational are those whose design and style withstand the true test…

instagram inspiration: rachel parcell of pink peonies

August 8, 2014

Part of the fun of following people on Instagram are the sneaky little peeks into their humble (and sometimes not so humble) abodes – the really, really good ones never really give whole room reveals, instead styling glimpses here and there of a little niche and when it’s particularly good, it leaves you craving more! …

inspired by: summer whites

July 29, 2014

I’ve been wearing a lot of white lately, and all the little white eyelet dresses I’ve been stockpiling for Baby Girl over the last few months have come in handy for matching!  Summer is the time for lightening up, as much for your wardrobe as for your home, and white is just so fresh and…

get the look: an oldie but goodie

July 15, 2014

There are some interiors that are just so good, so timeless, so perfectly executed, that whenever you come across them, whether by flipping through old magazines or browsing Pinterest, you just have to stop to admire all over again all the things that made you love the space in the first place.  For me, this…

a little outdoor slice of heaven

July 1, 2014

If there’s anything I love more than a beautifully weathered, shingle-style chic cottage, it’s an equally beautiful porch or patio in which to enjoy said cottage.  I’m sure by now you’ve all seen Chris Burch’s Southampton home tour that was featured in Architectural Digest a while back, but Mackenzie Horan’s personal photos of the exterior…
