Simply in Grey and White

 

I fell for this almost all white interior, the paneling and the wood is to die for, so simple and just right I think.  Old wood and touches of grey make it just about perfect for me!

Simple Peony boquet..

 

Spring is my favorite time of year by far!  I love most flowers but my heart is deeply in love with the Peony.  I picked up a simple bunch at the market a few days ago and since then they have become my muse.  So so amazing.  I am a terrible flower arranger so I love that I can simply cut them and pop them into any kind of container and they always look beautiful.

Wishing you a wonderful long weekend!

greige and gold...

I know we have all seen this beautiful Parisian apartment by Gilles et Boissier over and over... but when I saw this image in isolation I fell in love all over again!  I love the simple clean lines mixed with the details of the doors, walls and the mirrors.  The dark wood.  The white sofa.  The greige rug.

Love. Love. Love.

Simply stunning in dark wood..

 This is such a wonderful use of naturally dark stained wood in heavy doses.  I love it.  It feels like a comfortable home that I would love to visit!  

Simple and clean with just that bit of detail is perfection..

Wishing you a wonderful Monday my friends!

pool side... simply

 

I have spent my free time as of late obsessing about a few things.. but the biggest thing on my mind is the pool we are putting in.  I am waiting with baited breath for it to be complete so I can put out lounges and add plants and just basically sit next to it and stare at what has been a dream of ours for years.  I adore this pool- it is modern and clean and just simple..  Ours is not going to be quite so simple but I did keep it as simple as possible.  We will be having some outdoor rooms but not for a little while so I have to be prepared for a lot of open space.

If you would like to keep up on our progress you can check out my instagram and eventually I will get it all together enough to show you here on the blog...  I hope you are looking forward to a wonderful weekend!

Little black and white dining..

 

I have been seeing these little chairs just about everywhere and I love love them.  I have used them in a few jobs but keep trying to figure out how I can have them at home..  maybe my office would be a good spot. Wishing you a very wonderful Holiday weekend- I hope you have wonderful plans!

We do our standard egg dying on Saturday and then dinner with family and friends on Sunday.

Beach house inspiration..

Sometimes you just need to escape to a little beach house for some R and R.  I love all of the natural textures and white mixed with that pop of color...

Happy weekend!

Design Traveler: Washington School House Hotel

 

One little peek at this Hotel and I was hooked.  The design has a clean European feeling, with great texture and a sense of history, just stunning.  The Washington School House Hotel is located in Utah but it feels like a complete world away.  

It could be all of the soft greige and white details that are really getting me.  Each room is unique and the beds are fabulous looking!  Can you imagine staying for a ski weekend or the fabulous Sundance Film Festival?  Yes please!

 

 The lighting is amazing too.  Just as it should be the perfect compliment to the space and it's surroundings.

contrasts..

 

I find that contrast is so necessary in a space, it doesn't have to be as obvious as this, which I love, but it can be simple and textural as well.  This combination is beautiful and interesting, the antlers make it for me.

I hope your weekend is full of beautiful days- we are expecting another 80 degree day here in California before it cools again.  If you are visiting us from One Kings Lane- Welcome - we are happy you are here!

Weekend ready...

 

I am pretty sure that everyday this week has seemed like Friday to me and it is finally here!  I love this sweet soft image (even though I like my dolls to have heads) it seems so relaxing.  I have it bad for these vintage tufted chairs.  We are planning our trip to France and I so hope to find one or two for my own home.  

Wishing you a relaxing and wonderful weekend!  Also, don't miss out on our giveaway!

here and there..

 

It is funny how everyday is so different even when it seems the same.  One little meeting can change your outlook for the next year in a good or bad way, or maybe just in a different way.  It seems that no matter what comes my way, there is always something there to follow it up.  Yesterday was one of those days were you look at what is coming up and decide- oh this is going to call for some changes some improvements, some improvising and a little bit of making your own destiny.  I am looking forward to it!  

I hope you had a wonderful week!  What did you get accomplished this week?  This is different from what are you doing this weekend- which is my normal question.  I feel like I had a very productive week and I am ready for a real break from work, time in the sun and with the family is on the agenda.

How did you like our first Designers at Home post?  If you are interested in participating please feel free to contact me as we would like to make this a regular thing here.

soft details..

 

I am completely falling for the soft details of this space from the most recent issue of Lonny. The simplicity of the clean furnishings with the vintage pieces is perfect.  Soft and easy going.  This is the home of  antiques dealer Kay O'Toole in Houston.  Just lovely!
