Let the pinning commence!

Ok my friends... I've finally organized and uploaded all of my home inspiration photos on pinterest!  YAY!!!  Every day that we get closer and closer to our new home, makes us more and more excited.  I  can't wait to get in there and start working on it.  We're really hoping for a breezy, open, and serene feeling in the house, and these inspiration photos I've been collecting totally nail the look.  I think they're the perfect combination of modern and comfortable.  Clean and fresh, but not too fussy, and just the right amount of quirk.  You know, I'm all about the quirk.  If you have a minute, pop on over to my pinterest page and take a look at the Home Decor board.  I'd love to know what you think.  


P.S. Here's a sneak peek of the board:

Loving Loly...

Designed by Lorena Vazquez, "Loly In The Sky" is a super fun line of adorable and AFFORDABLE loafers, handmade one at a time in Mexico.  I wasn't sure of what to expect from the Company, because I'd never actually seen their shoes in person- but I was so pleasantly surprised when they arrived!  They're super comfy, and really great quality.  Unlike a lot of companies who use "made with love" as a gimmicky slogan- these shoes actually do feel like they were made with big heaping doses of it.  The fun and quirky designs are really refreshing- very Charlotte Olympia, if Charlotte Olympia had a crazy-affordable line.  Yep, I'm a fan.  My biggest dilemma now will be deciding on the next pair...  Here's what I'm coveting:
HELLO SUNSHINE!
I can't think of a cuter way to shake off the Winter blues, and welcome back the sun.

An easy peasy way to dip your toes into the tuxedo trend.

And don't you forget it!

These (for obvious reasons...)!

'Cos sometimes I just need a reminder...

xo,

Home Inspiration... Taylor Tomasi-Hill


I know this looks really basic, and you're thinking... huh?  

But the truth is, I love the freshness of this happy little spot in Taylor Tomasi-Hill's NY kitchen.  Look at the stark, STARK white and how the pinks and reds just jump off of it.  The plants and framed snapshot really help to soften the look.  And the silly red ants, countertop taxi planter, and goofy fly-swatters tell us that this is a fun, whimsical space.  You know, I'm all about the goofy and whimsical...  Oooh, and that darling, classic checkerboard floor?  It reminds me of my elementary school (built in 1835).  

What I want to know is... where in New York did she find that flood of natural light?!  SO beautiful.  And can we just talk for a minute about Taylor's amazing hair?  She famously refuses to cop to her colorist, but dang- if that doesn't give you the "maaaaybe I could pull off red" bug...  I don't know what.
