Michel Van Devender

How often do we get to see a turquoise Christmas tree?! So fun! This festive Charlotte, North Carolina home belongs to Michel Van Devender, a designer at Lisa Sherry Interieurs and was featured in the recent Holiday issue of Lonny. I loved Michel's bit of of advice: "Let your home tell the story of who your family is and how you live. People are interesting and have personalities, and so should their homes." Yes! And from I'm seeing above, this is one fun family! You can read all about the home and see lots more photos by Patrick Cline right here!

Studio Ten 25

Immersing myself in a house full of pretty color (Wythe Blue!), fun pattern and fabulous furniture is what I call the perfect end to the week! This fabulous home was designed by Abbe Fenimore of Studio Ten 25 out of Dallas, Texas (and photographed beautifully by Melanie Johnson) for a newlywed couple that wanted a chic modern look for their first home together. The builder’s standard and more traditional finishes weren't working for them so Abbe had dark espresso hardwoods installed, dated lighting changed out and unveiled a black and white color palette with pops of turquoise and yellow! She also incorporated the wife's love for mirrored pieces while bringing in the bold graphics and masculine touches the husband was after. All in such perfect balance! Isn't the bedroom amazing?! (The couple–and Abbe's favorite room!) The curtains and bedding are so luxurious, not to mention that incredible headboard!

If you love Abbe's style as much as I do (EVERY room she's designed I love, how often can you say that??), definitely visit her online store Shop Ten 25! Also check out her website and blog too....so much inspiration, so little time!! Happy weekend! :)

Flea Market Trixie

We received our first big batch of snow over the weekend here in Minnesota, so I am in holiday mode big time now! And let me tell you, I would love it if my halls were decked liked Flea Market Trixie's! The green and turquoise combo is so fresh and happy, a perfect complement to her already beautiful home. (You may remember seeing the space without the holiday decor here.) I love all of her vintage and handmade items, especially her collection of lovely vintage frames and art. (Check out her Etsy shop for similar pieces!) For more pics and to read all about her decor, head right over here!

A fun side note, when I was at the grocery store the other day I noticed Flea Market Trixie's porch on the cover of Cottage Style Magazine! So exciting, congrats Flea Market Trixie!
