Denise Fogarty Interiors

Fresh and unexpected, that's precisely why I love these rooms designed by Denise Fogarty and photographed by Alise O'Brien! It's really no wonder why Denise was named one of the seven of St. Louis' top designers. I know we're all fans of white kitchens these days (I'm downright obsessed), but aren't they ten times yummier when paired with blue walls? I love the little computer area too, although I know I'd spend way more time there than actually cooking! The living area has so many great details, with a nod to the beach that I adore. And hello there fab-u-lous dining room! The coral artwork pops on that vibrant green, and I love how the gorgeous upholstered chairs just pull everything together so perfectly. If you're loving these rooms as much as me, you'll definitely want to head on over to see more of Denise's work right here! Have a fantastic Halloween weekend you guys!!

Edit: The color in the family room is Benjamin Moore's "California Breeze" #757, the kitchen is Farrow & Ball, "Borrowed Light", and the dining room is a custom mix of Benjamin Moore 1/2 "Perennial" #405 and 1/2 "Huntington Green" #406.

Colorful Bedroom Makeover

SO much fun color!! It would be hard not to wake up happy in this bedroom featured in BHG. I love that they brought in that storage chest to use as a cozy window bench...you can never have too many cute, colorful pillows! The window coverings here are great too. I love how they layered the bamboo blinds with the orange panels. Head over to BHG for more photos, including before shots too!

We have a lot on our plate this weekend. We are getting ready to put our house on the market (eek!) so there's lots of projects and major de-cluttering going down around our house! Once things are looking good around here, I'll share some photos with you guys! Have a fantastic weekend! :)

Chris Barrett Design

It's Mad Men...with a twist! I love how designer Chris Barrett used the same vibrant complementary colors throughout this entire Manhattan Beach home for a cohesive look that's fun and inviting. So much great retro furniture here...those turquoise lounge chairs are so cool! I'm really loving the artwork, especially the poolside photograph by Slim Aarons in the dining room. Oh, the dining room. That's my favorite...the juicy colors, awesome chairs, fab chandelier! See more of this home photographed by Karyn Millet right over here!

Polhemus Savery DaSilva

Another coastal home in Massachusetts...shocking I know! Like I said on Friday, I'm super obsessed. This light-filled home designed by Polhemus Savery DaSilva and photographed by Brian Vanden Brink is brimming with fresh, cheery color and I love it. I wish I knew the paint color of the kitchen cabinets...it's so pretty how it changes color like that. I think it's so cool how relaxed the dining room is too. Such cute fabric on those dining chairs! To finish the tour of this house, head right over here!

Seldom Scene Interiors + Plush Pumpkin Winner!

Ever since our vacation out east, I'm (more so than usual) obsessed with the houses there. Glimpses of the interiors are so much more gratifying now! I am loving this vibrant Nantucket pool house designed by Wendy Valliere of Seldom Scene Interiors. All the breezy turquoise (love those stripes!) and fresh green would make for a great place to escape and simply have fun! I'm still going through all the photos from our own fun trip but should have some ready to share with you guys next week!

I can't believe how many of you entered to win the adorable plush pumpkins! I'm happy to announce the lucky winner of the turquoise set is:

Steph from Glitter & Goat Cheese

And with that exciting end, I hope you all have a fantastic weekend! We have a jam-packed one waiting for us, including one last birthday celebration with my family. I love it when birthdays never seem to end!

Jane Coslick

I've never met a hanging porch bed I didn't like. One designed by Jane Coslick? All dressed up in cute turquoise fabric?? Overlooking the sea??? Heaven help me! These photos by Richard Leo Johnson for a feature in Coastal Living a couple years back are actually part of one of my most favorite homes ever, designed by Jane of course (I blogged about it here). Fall may have officially arrived, but this delightful porch is keeping the summer vibe alive for me! I hope you all have a great weekend...I know I'm going to milk it for all it's worth! :)

David Kleinberg

It's for good reason that this delightful room designed by David Kleinberg and photographed by Eric Piasecki that was featured in Architectural Digest has been shown all over blogland and Pinterest! Honestly I have to say this is one of my favorite images I've ever seen. Maybe because my first love in life was a plump Siamese cat, aptly named Cat...and then my Siamese cats Mouse, Scamp, Gizmo, Shiva and now currently Kismet. (We also have an orange and white cat Spencer, whom I love dearly.) Then add in the fact that long ago when I first discovered my fondness for turquoise, I found it even more favorable when paired with lime green. So there you have it. I'd stare all day at this photo and it would still bring me so much joy. I'm pretty sure I need the bedding from Leontine Linens pronto. However it's the fabulous Paradise Garden toile from Quadrille on the duvet and walls that is the true darling here! Or is it the cat? I can't decide. :)



I hope you have a fantastic weekend! I can't believe it's the last one in August!

Bonesteel Trout Hall

There's something to be said about the clean, earthy, colorful textures of the coast. In my book, no one interprets it better than the design firm Bonesteel Trout Hall, whose style epitomizes the laid back glamour of the California lifestyle. I absolutely adore their serene rooms filled with watery blues and greens. But just how fun are the rooms with more punchy color?? I'm loving every.single.photo! For more, see this post I did last year, and definitely head over to their site for lots more eye candy!
