TRUE LIFE: WE ARE HUMAN

As I was driving home last night after a goodbye dinner at Urban Solace with Vanessa, Chelsea and Conni – I first started to think about how much I am going to miss all of my friends here in San Diego while we are in Boston. I also started to think about one of our […]

BRRR….BOSTON….BRRR

This San Diego gal is moving to Boston which means she is going to need more than a light sweater/cardigan to keep her warm. Okay, Okay, I am not originally from San Diego…I am from Oklahoma where we actually have pretty cold winters (including ice and snow sometimes). That being said, I DO have a […]

BOY’S NURSERY MAKEOVER

Say hello to a boy’s nursery makeover I have waited too long to share with you all! You might remember this sweet girl’s nursery I designed a few months ago for my friend + mentor, Jenny. Melissa and Scott (two of Jenny’s friends) were about a month away from having another boy when she contacted […]

IN CELEBRATION OF…

Doing what you love.  Now that things have slowed down, since our wedding and honeymoon have come to a close, I can focus on another really exciting event…moving to Boston. I am going to be freelancing practically full-time (I say practically because I will also be working part-time for West Elm in Boston).  It’s such an […]

ONE NIGHT GETAWAY

We were in Los Angeles yesterday and are going to be here for a little bit today installing 2 Loft Models. It’s such a breath of fresh air to walk around the quaint streets of of LA. Here are a few inspirational photos I took along the way! Happy Thursday!

SLEEP WELL +

After listening to a story on NPR (KPBS – San Diego) discussing the importance of sleep, I started to consider the relationship between the design of your bedroom and your sleeping habits. Because sleep is so important for a lot of health-related reasons (I won’t list them…just google it), I wanted to give you all […]

WEAR THIS || LIVE THERE

 So…I got inspired tonight by the lovely photo you see on the right of one of my good friends in San Diego, Conni, of Art in the Find. She is a talented stylist, all things ranging from fashion to interiors, this fantastic gal is one-of-a-kind. I love how she styled her outfit… it’s casual but […]
