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!

Eileen Marcuvitz

With the talent of Boston-based architect James Cullion and interior designer Eileen Marcuvitz, this Newport, Rhode Island home photographed by Robert Benson was inspired by a majestic oak tree and built to take full advantage of the home’s breathtaking water views. They used a palette of misty blues with hints of sea and sky to bring the outside inside. I love the symmetry in the home and the use of arches throughout...especially the front entrance outside. Gorgeous! The whole vibe is welcoming, but also clean and elegant. You can read all about the space and finish the tour at New England Home!

Cottage Charm

This delightful cottage featured in Better Homes & Gardens is light and bright, filled with the perfect amount of blissful blues. The owners did a fantastic job of mixing rustic with the refined, and using vintage goods and repurposed pieces. I'm getting some serious inspiration from these photos. See those cute curtains in the bedrooms? Yeah...shower curtains...from Target. And I spy a DwellStudio for Target pillow on the bed too. (I'm a big Target fan, if you can't tell!) There's more to see on this home tour, so head on over to BHG! I wish you all a wonderful weekend! I can't believe July is coming to an end!

Stacey Brandford

If these bright and beautiful photos from Toronto-based photographer Stacey Brandford don't put you in a cheery mood, I don't know what will! All of the vibrant color and fun patterns mingling together are delightful treat for the eyes. I especially love the detail shots! (How come my tables never look nearly this pretty?) There's so much more eye candy awaiting for you over at his website!

"Is this heaven? No, it's Iowa."

I have a soft spot for country homes, especially ones in Iowa (where I was born.) The homeowners of this 1923 Craftsman bungalow spent 8 months renovating their home featured in CountryHome magazine. They wanted to maintain the house’s Craftsman style but give it a lighter look, which they accomplished by tearing down walls, adding windows, and bringing in white tiles and paint. And plenty of breezy, beautiful blue! You know what's cool?? The owner said everything from windows to countertops to flooring came from their local Home Depot, including some great special orders. I love it! See more photos, including what it looked like before, right over here!

I'm thrilled today to be a guest blogger over at my friends Chris Ann and Kristin's blog LoveFeast Table. Actually it's their fabulous newly redesigned blog! In celebration of their launch, they asked me to be a guest at their table and share with their readers about my blogging journey and love for turquoise. Moreover they are giving away a breathtaking Turquoise Tree of Life Necklace designed and handmade by Liz Oie. You won't want to miss out on your chance to win here!

Red Element Design Studio

I am sure you are all glued to your screens devouring these images! This gorgeous Kiawah Island home designed by Rebekah Carter of Red Element Design Studio and photographed by Michael Costa is positively dream-worthy. The Old World European charm mixed with modern touches gives the home a luxurious but laid back look that I am loving. Call me crazy, but I could just eat up all those fabulous windows. What a treat to have French doors in the bedroom opening up to an infinity edge pool overlooking a big pond! Oh my! Read about the home and see more images at Charleston Home + Design! Have a wonderful weekend!!!
