Happy Thoughts



When it snows, New York City becomes a wonderland... for a few hours. Then it turns into a slushy, filthy, frigid mess. Ever since the puddle incident, I have been daydreaming nonstop about our upcoming migratory escape to Punta Cana. In a week, I'll be lounging poolside and sipping fruity cocktails, with great friends and a stack of glossy magazines by my side. Super excited and counting the days! I am in desperate need of a tan and some vitamin D.

Just Faux Fawn

I've just finished hanging these faux taxidermy heads around our study! They add such great depth and interest, and really pop against the dark blue-grey walls. Call me a freak, but I'm absolutely fascinated with real-deal taxidermy. But if hanging dead animals on your walls feels like overkill, these modern interpretations are a brilliant way to incorporate trophies into your home.

Splendid Studies

We are currently in the process of converting our spare bedroom into a study. My goal is to design an elegant, yet cozy space that reflects our interests and accommodates a variety of activities. As always, I'm aiming to balance masculine and feminine elements in order to create a versatile room that Chris and I will be able to enjoy together. Here are some photos I've gathered for inspiration~







Someday, I will have a built-in library with a ladder. Mark my words!
