Lately I’ve been in a minimalist mood and drawn to simple black and white interiors. Although simple, these spaces are chic, sophisticated and timeless. Here are a few striking interior designs in this classic color combo…

Best Home Blogs & Lamps Plus $500 Shopping Spree

Robert Abbey Delta Lily Table Lamp - LampsPlus

If you received a $500 shopping spree at Lamps Plus, what would you buy? I’d purchase a pair of Robert Abbey’s Delta Lily table lamps (although haven’t decided on a color yet!). I love the clean, contemporary base which comes in a variety of colors. I think a pair would look great flanking a bed, sofa or console table.

Darling Boy’s Nursery Room

I adored this  darling boy’s nursery room by Joni Lay so much, I had to share it with you. She designed it for her nephew and has some really sweet elements. The neutral palette (walls in Sherwin Williams’ Mindful Gray) is  perfect for a calming nursery. The giraffe artwork above the crib offers a great pop of color. The print is actually from a page of an antique  book purchased on etsy. It was scanned and then re-printed at a much larger scale. So cute, right?

I also love that the changing table is a vintage dresser. Hanging above the changing table is a collections of family photos, graphic artwork, arrows and a darling triangle mobile made of leather. Love!

Color Palette :: Blue and White Interiors

blue and white contemporary wallpaper

Summer is almost officially here! (wahoo!) The warm weather has me thinking of the quintessential interior palette for the season: blue and white. This timeless color combo can be incorporated throughout the entire home: in living rooms, bedrooms and outdoor living spaces. It can also be featured in every style, from modern to traditional and everywhere in between.

In celebration of this classic color combo, I’ve rounded up some eye-catching blue and white home decor items. Check them out in an  ideabook I created for Houzz!

Happy Friday!
