interiors inspiration

i love saving images of pretty rooms that i can look back at and get ideas from. and sometimes it's not even for the ideas, it's just for something beautiful to look at. all of these rooms have such detailed beauty -- something i dream to have in a dream home one day. for now, i like to incorporate bits and pieces of easy glamour to make my living space a bit more inspiring, too.

but really, look at the use of color, the amount of layering, the variation in textures and patterns, the soft feel combined with the bold detail -- each room is perfect.

lattice - home style

not too long ago, i wrote about how fun decorating a new house can be. well that fun hasn't stopped yet because i'm still looking for all the perfect pieces to make the house a home.

there's so much out there to choose from, but certain home elements really catch my eye, and one of those is lattice patterns. lattice is super fun and easy to incorporate anywhere.

what i love is that the bold, geometric lines of this print against a monotone background looks so very sharp and stylish.  with all the curved lines and shapes of say a tufted sofa, a crystal chandelier, or a cozy flowing throw....the tailored and distinct pattern of lattice really brings a room together with its sharp contrast. whether its visible in a rug, a pillow, a table, or even a wallpaper...you've gotta have lattice.
