fashion inspiration: relaxed boho living room.

Inspiration can come from anywhere. And for me, a lot of times that somewhere is fashion. Taking an outfit and using it to build your color palette or fabric profile could mean the difference of having a cohesive vision and a scattered idea. 

First, look at each piece of clothing separately and list what they could bring to the space. Then, take the entire outfit and identify the proportions of each element to figure out how to bring balance to the room. Finally, add a couple of your favorite accessories to finish the space.

tip: Try not to be too literal about your inspiration. Take what you like about a look and transform it into something that could work for the space.

trend alert: using a dresser as a nightstand.

Dressers as nightstands feel very trendy to me lately - especially as spaces get smaller and storage gets more and more important. A great place for storing bedding, lingerie, pajamas or even socks, using a dresser as a nightstand feels like it might just be my next move.

And some extra photos for inspiration. I'm really liking the painted dressers for an added pop of color paired with a mirror to make the dresser super functional.

room idea: boho bathroom decor.

Today I was in the mood for a crisp, fresh bathroom. No particular reason, just felt like pulling one together. To ground this space, I added some wooden elements meant to be placed on either side of the room. Mint is my new "it" color and I'm loving it paired with coral and chartreuse. 

tip: Replacing the mirror is one of the easiest ways to update your bathroom. So forget the lighting (if your budget needs you to) and find a mirror with personality.
