Shelter Loves - Interior Design 2016

Happy Friday hunnies!!! I hope you had a great week.Things are great and busy around here! Did I mention I love the summer? My new website is in the works!! I can't wait to share some fresh projects with y'all!! Here is what I'm adoring on this hot summery day! xoxoxo

1. Well not for today but blazers with cropped fringe jeans for Fall. I know people seem to think cropped jeans make your legs look short but beg to differ. I think they are flattering and fun, especially with flats!!
2. Nordstrom's sale is in full swing. There are SO many great deals. I LOVE this J.Crew necklace. It needs to live at my house.
3. Fresh, white textural rooms are pretty, pretty and on my radar. Any takers?
4. I will own a vintage convertible someday! Do you agree, Matty?
5. YES!! I've been doing this all summer.

Love the look - My Fall wish list from the Nordstrom 2017 Anni sale - Interior Design 2016

The 2017 Nordstrom Anniversary sale is in full swing and it open to the public tomorrow! I posted my favorite closet staples last week and today for my "love the look" post I'm sharing my personal wish list! I recently had someone ask me what I thought about the capsule wardrobe trend. It's a cool concept but I'm too much of a clothing/accessory and jewelry lover to be that disciplined. I do however, believe in refining your closet. As you know I'm slightly obsessed with french fashion and their uncanny ability to mix and match a refined selection of pieces. I instead, aim to take that approach to dressing. See what I've done here with my picks? Each of these pieces can be worn together in different ways to create an array of outfits! Every piece coordinates...be sure to scoop them up while they are available. A number of last week's picks have sold out!!

1. Hunter boot - I like the back detail update on these.
2. Classic oversized cubic zirconia diamond earrings - these are a steal.
3. Belle sleeve sweater.
4. AllSaints bag. This is pretty and a great price!
5. Kate Spade watch
6. long Leith cardigan 
7. Ruffle neck tee. Wear this alone or layer it under sweaters and vests.
8. Fitted black boot with a narrow shaft. This version is by Sam Edelman. I have good luck with their shoes.
9. I already own these faux leather leggings. I layer them with sweaters and blazers! (and I did not get them on sale!) They are a pretty good leather knock off.
10. Rag and Bone are still my go to jean brand.
11. These sunnies Burberry and very Jackie O., you really can't go wrong. 
12. I like the asymmetrical zip on this down puffer coat. Boston gets cold quickly. This short version is perfect for Fall and the 100 soccer games I'll be attending!

By the Sea - Interior Design 2016

I signed my son up for surf camp today. My kids both love the ocean, skimboarding and swimming. We are lucky enough to have the coolest little surf shop here in town. Besides balancing work, my family is all about a casual lifestyle during the summer. It includes sandy feet, the surf, beaching it, boating and fun with family and friends.

My interior design and fashion sense often leans towards (especially for me) Malibu meets Nantucket. So I was thrilled to see the modern but organic Venice beach home of high fashion swim designer Marysia Dobrzanska Reeves of Marysia Swim. You can find her fabulous home in this month's issue of Arch. Digest. Marysia had the help of designer Martha Mulholland. The duo sourced most of the home's furniture, lighting and accessories locally. The LA area is a designer's dream! (lucky them). I like the organic mix and I especially loved the kid spaces for her children. 

Here is a peek at some of Marysia's designs:

J'taime Paris - Interior Design 2016

I've long been in love with not only Parisian design but the entire lifestyle. I recently came across a beautifully inspiring insta account and blog by photographer Marissa Cox. Marissa posted a gorgeous shop on Rue Rodier (her blog). Let's take a peek at this beautiful shop and her photographs. The entire design of L'Appartement Sezane, including wood and brass details are fabulous. All images via Marissa Cox. 

Purchase her blouse here.

The home of..... Moon Juice's Amanda Chantal bacon - Interior Design 2016

The home of Moon juice founder Amanda Chantal Bacon

What I love about Amanda Chantal Bacons L.A house is well....  pretty much everything. Its warm and relaxed, with mostly relaxing neutral tones but just enough colour to keep it interesting.

I am always excited to see pictures of the homes of what I would call 'successful hippies'. I guess this pride stems from watching films as a teenager where the 'alternative' character ends up conforming, becoming popular and bagging the bland jock character.  Yawn!

If you aren't aware of Amanda and her wonderful brand Moon Juice then you can check out her site here and her previous home featured on Moon to Moon here.

Happy Friday!! After a busy and rainy week, I'm hoping for some down time with my kids and some warm sunny weather this weekend! Here's what is on my radar!!

1. Happy Bastille Day. As you know, I'm in love with the concept of French dressing. The french pair down their look and closets with only the chicest, high quality pieces. 
2. With that said, blazers are very hot for the Fall....ALL kinds of them! Check this one out and it's on super sale through Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale!
3. They do! I love this concept.
4. I'm LOVING these pendants and I still adore an updated crisp white kitchens.
I'm working on one now but we are accenting it with a glossy navy island!
5. It's hydrangea season and that makes me happy. I posted my hydrangeas today on Insta. Follow me here!!
6. I'm all about a white watch band during the summer months. This is a goodie!
