It's been a while, friends.

I'm embracing today's dreary weather in Denver—we don't get much rain here, so the drizzle is a welcome seasonal change.

I've been thinking a lot about change, seasonal and otherwise. I think I'm a person who thrives on newness; it's a fun way to live, but it can make the day-to-day feel monotonous if I'm not motivated by something shiny and novel. I do think a big change is on the horizon in my life, just not sure how—or when or where.

I want to know—what's the latest change, big or small, you've made in your life?

Shelf styling is both fun and anxiety-inducing for me. It's tough to achieve a homogenous style without appearing too boring or curated.

I tend to design my shelves around my framed art that I'm using --- you'll see here that there's a good amount of green and gold in my decor items and trinkets, which comes straight from the art and frames that I've chosen.

What are your go-to items for styling shelves in your home? ✨

Be honest with me and yourself here: Are you using an old candle as an ashtray?

If the answer is yes — and even if it isn’t — it’s high time to start buying and displaying smoking accessories that aren’t just functional, but attractive.

I can get a little restless when it comes to the design of my home.
Switching up your wall art is a good way to scratch that itch without having to, you know, get your boyfriend to help you move the couch. Again.

One of the easiest ways to personalize and give a space purpose is to add art to the walls. In my book, “wall art” is anything from framed photos and paintings/prints to shelves and wal…

If you're anything like me, you're obsessed with Architectural Digest's Open Door home tours. Shay Mitchell's has been my favorite since it premiered in early 2020; here's why.

Mitchell’s taste is a glorious combination of Mediterranean and moody, eclectic modern styles.
