Oxygenate . Reinvigorate .

2016... what a year. There's nothing we need more than to stop and take a deep breathe in. Oxygenate. Reinvigorate. This year's Pantone Color of the Year is inspired by the feeling of newness that comes with the first days of Spring. "Greenery" is meant to be life-affirming and full of vitality... just the attitude we need to strap on for the coming year.

As you know, I'm a huge fan of brightening the home with a ton of botanical greens but I'm not sure if I'm sold on this bright shade. How do you guys feel about it?

Textures at Home

There's so many ways to add texture to your home. My favorite is this first photo - where there's greenery throughout the living room, but also in the paintings. It gives a very warm and welcoming feeling. If you know me, you know that I have a black thumb, which means I've killed all the plants that I've ever owned. My succulents are barely surviving at the moment.

Velvet Accents

Velvet is not only back in fashion, but also back in interior design. Velvet can be sported in so many colors and styled in so many moods. It reminds me of my grandma's place, or when I visit my great Aunt's house. There's something cozy about velvet. Is it because it feels nostalgic or is it actually the style itself? Here's 7 picks of some of my favorite in home velvet accents.

Pretty in Pink

I own one thing in pink... and it's the lid to my coffee tumbler. I was never a big fan of pink, maybe because it feels very feminine, and I'm a black, white and grey kind of girl. Lately I've been seeing a lot of pink on my Pinterest feed, so I wanted to bring some color onto the blog, and share some interiors that will make you (as Refinery called it) rethink pink!
