Golden Nursery

In browsing for nursery ideas, I came across this gorgeous golden haven at On To Baby. I love the chevron wall, the Imogen Rifle Paper Co. letters, the golden bows on the curtains, and all the little decorative pieces. My older sister prefers brightly colored nurseries, whereas I lean toward simple, elegant design. What do you think?

The Perfect Nursery

I follow Taylor Sterling (founder of Glitter Guide) on Instagram, and I think she’s absolutely perfect. She has been posting pictures of different pieces of her nursery/office recently, but not until yesterday was the entire room revealed on GG. I literally have clicked through all of the pictures three times. I love them all so much. Every single detail is just as I would have dreamed – from the Rifle prints on the wall to the amazing Hayneedle furniture. Baby Elodie is going to have one stylish life. What do you think of the decorations?

LEIF’s Midas Touches

Leifshop

When Taylor Sterling recently posted a picture of a gorgeous geometric blanket on  Instagram from Leifshop.com, I immediately had to find it. In my search for this gorgeous throw, I fell head-over-heels for this online design store. Seriously. In love.

The bold colors, gorgeous artwork, and modern vibe of the store is right up my alley. My style is definitely West Elm rustic meets LEIF modern. I especially love their gold touches – shown above. My shopping cart is huge. I’m trying to practice self-control, but failing miserably. I need those paintings!

Catching Up on Life

DSC_0534

Last week was beyond busy with work, which left absolutely zero time to take a mental break and blog. So, to catch up…

> Our engagement pictures were recently featured on Style Me Pretty’s Little Black Book Blog here

> I finally ate at Coppa and Roost (twice) after they’d been on my “must eat at” list for ages and obviously had to add them to my Best of Houston: Restaurants and Coffee list

> We had the best time in Durango: hiking, ziplining, river rafting, and cycling – house above, more pictures soon!

> Celebrated Pierson’s first birthday and Bryan’s 25th! I love birthdays so much.

> Bought this striped chair for our entryway – final pictures of the Manor to come soon!

> Purchased tickets to The Book of Mormon for next weekend… seriously cannot wait

> Found out that we’re going to be Door Openers at Passion 2014 in Houston

> Headed to San Francisco for a day (here now) – fourth time in this beautiful city in 2013 and cannot complain about that

Gallery Walls

I love gallery walls. Like, obsessed. One of the few things left to be done in the Manor is hanging stuff on the walls. For some reason, Sasha is afraid to make holes in the wall, so he’s pushed back on me about all of the prints I’ve wanted to hang. I’ve convinced him to do a gallery wall in one of the guest rooms, and I’ve laid everything out on the floor for another in the study. I’m still not sure it’s perfect yet, so decided to pull some inspiration. My favorites below! What are your thoughts on gallery walls?
