We’re talking about interiors today and I know I’m supposed to be taking you on my “new place” design journey (which I started here and here). But that apartment unfortunately fell through due to unforeseen structural issues with the home. Anyway, I am still going to share my design board for the entryway because sharing … Continue reading
Up next, the kitchen. As a renter, theres not that much I can structurally change here. However, a beautiful kitchen doesn’t always have to include custom finishes or gut renovations. Small, but smart, changes can have a big impact on the space. I’m going to give the kitchen a refresh without giving it a full … Continue reading
The weather here in NY is seriously bi-polar, high 60’s to low 20’s and its driving me crazy*throws tantrum*. Despite the very cold week we’re having my mind is set on spring shopping. I’ve been pretty tame this winter season so the spring shopping will be epic (in a stalking all the things I want … Continue reading

Guys I am literally swooning, like mouth open, this is gorgeous & I wish I lived here swooning. The inspiration for the styling of this collection was Paris (my second fav place in the world, read about my trip here) and they hit everything on the nose. The pieces are decadent but have a livable … Continue reading

I’m looking to make a change to my living room, nothing crazy as I do love the way it currently looks but theres a corner holding all the last bits of my old apartment and doesn’t match the rest of the room. So I’m in the market for a stool or ottoman to replace the … Continue reading
I was on Domino the other every day and came across this 5oo sq. ft apartment designed by Nicole Gibbons and was literally blown away by her design.
