apartment sneak peek

I've been too busy to finish decorating my new apartment (or take any pictures) but here is a peek at our living room. I especially love our gallery wall of Harper's Bazaar covers!

room of the day {emerald green}

HAPPY 2011!!!! In the spirit of my favorite new design book, Mary McDonald Interiors: The Allure of Style, I want this year to be all about GLAMOUR and FUN.

I'm adoring the energy and opulence in this emerald living room with black and white accents...(and the gold ceiling, of course).

back to blogging

I've been away for a while now (thank you, Case, for picking up the slack!). I'll be around a lot more in the coming weeks... but for now wanted to share a pretty image from issue 2 of Rue (it's packed with great interiors if you haven't had a chance to check it out yet). The chicks at Domicile are amazing - I absolutely love their work.

interior inspiration {lavender}

I'm putting together boards for a lavender bedroom this morning and wanted to share a few of my favorite interiors images that highlight the color purple. Although usually not one of my favorites, it can be oh so pretty when done in the right way. I'm especially loving a warm, pinkish lavender paired with white and charcoal gray.

designer {angie hranowsky}

I was introduced to interior designer Angie Hranowsky's portfolio earlier this week via Coco + Kelley and I instantly fell in love with her work. Classic, yet modern, with just the right about of color and glamour mixed in. I would love to call any of these spaces home.

Loving this living room (especially the coral and cream ikat chairs) designed by Christina Murphy.

home tour {designer lindsey bond}

I'm obsessed with designer Lindsey Bond's bright, modern and chic 1950's Birmingham, Alabama, cottage (featured in the new October issue of House Beautiful). I love the palette and how she's cleverly installed wall mounted shelves in several places to eliminate the need for a lot of bulky furniture. Also, the drapery is the same throughout, which Lindsey says, "adds softness and height, but also creates order through repetition." I love how she's used the curtains in other places besides the windows - to frame the living room/dining room, hide her closet door and to create a more modern take on a canopy.
