Pillow Obsession

Pillows are the best and quickest ways to change the look and mood of any room. This is not just a design tip it is one of my personal beliefs and obsessions. I have a very large and varied collection of pillows (which continues to grow )  so I can change the look of any room in my home at any given time. I also have a entire board dedicated to Pillows on Pinterest.
Here are some of my current FAVE pillow obsessions.

Hope your day is FAB!

 Here is a small sampling of my pillow collection the prices range from $29 - $650 

Wallpapered Ceilings

It always seems when decorating a room the ceiling is the last thing that one thinks about. I know I have posted about making sure you paint the ceilings and all the details of choosing the right color, etc.  So today Dolls I want to take it a little further and talk about wallpapering your ceilings. Yes, I said wallpaper. What a great way to bring interest and draw the eye up and all around the room. Do I suggest this as a DIY not really it can be labor intensive. However, I do highly suggest it as a design element in your home. If it seems like too much of a commitment then I suggest maybe doing it in a powder room or your walk in closet.
Take a look at these examples and then leave me a comment and tell me what you think!

Have a FAB weekend!

Love,
The Duchess xoxo

Color Crush Coral+Green

This juicy citrus Benjamin Moore color palette put together by Ann Fox is just so happy, crisp and refreshing. It would be a great color combination for a home office, bedroom or even a kitchen. Remember when putting colors together you don't have to be literal in translating them, feel free to move up and down on the scale to soften or add more intensity as you see fit. Here are some beautiful examples of coral and green.
Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
Enjoy!

Eclectic

This beautiful room is a great example of how to mix patterns and layers to create a cool eclectic vibe. In my opinion a zebra rug can always act as a neutral and is a great jumping off point. I have sourced all the products so that you too can GET THE LOOK!

Have a Happy Monday Dolls!

Pink + Green

After my post on Tuesday about the Miami pink and green guest house I was still thinking about that color palette. Only this time I was thinking about the softer side of pink + green.

When I was ( younger) and going to school for interior design I lived in Minneapolis and the year prior I had lived in Lake Forest, IL. It was a huge change for a girl who had only lived in warm weather climates like Arizona and California. The culture shock was one thing but the weather shock sent me into a tail spin. That is when I really realized the impact that light and color have on your psyche and your life.
 I had purchased a gorgeous vintage mohair sofa and matching chair in chocolate brown (which wasn't all the rage back then) and in an effort to add some color and femininity to the room and soften the brown I used yellowy greens and soft pink accents. One of my favorite things to have on my cocktail table was a crystal bowl filled with granny smith apples and a bouquet of petal pink roses next to it. Those simple and beautiful things always made me happy and helped brighten up those long, dark and dreary winter days!

Let's take a look at the softer side of pink + green.

Have and happy Friday and amazing weekend!!
