fall decor essentials: fur & fringe

The Decorista September 25, 2014

Layering up for fall is what everyone talks about fashion wise. Well, what about home wise? You've got to always add your home into the 'stylish life' equation. I am all about adding and subtracting pieces as the seasons change. One thing I love to do is add textures. I think throwing fur {faux fur of course} all over the place is a definite essential for fall. I've never seen black and white fur before and I love this little office nook from afabchallenge.

Another thing I have noticed buzzing around are these chic little fringe things. Fringe is definitely in fashion, so these babies are right on trend.

I really like these little fringe things. You can find them all over etsy. I like this one.

Currently Obsessed: Anthropologie hardware

The Decorista September 17, 2014

The other day I was hanging with a girlfriend and we were chatting about furniture design, etc. It was brought to my attention that Anthro stepped their game up when it comes to hardware and sure enough, they have! I'm pretty much obsessed with everything new they are doing. Lots of metallics and angles. Here are my favorites...

1. Prism handles. I'm obsessed with the shape of these.

2. Agate hardware. These are always so glam.

3. Gramercy knobs. I absolutely love the contrast metals.

4. Geometric brass knob. This one is so current. I love it.

5. Saddle stitch handle. I love the elegance of leather.

6. Bee honeycomb handle. These are so charming, to add to any kids space.

Get the look: Romantic Modern Bedroom

The Decorista September 11, 2014

I'm feeling like giving myself a bedroom makeover. I love my lilac and gold bedroom, but I am getting restless and want to change up the vibe. The moment I saw this bedroom I found on Style at Home, I stopped and decided to put together a little shopping board for this look. I want to call it a romantic modern bedroom glamour.

Shop it: pink bed / beaded chandelier white lamp/ bone inlay side table / pink overdyed rug/ gold greek key bench/ coral accents/ grey grasscloth wallpaper/ luxe fur pillow/ shabby chic ruffled bedding/ pink curtains

pops of chartreuse

The Decorista September 4, 2014

If you were to see my living room in person, its all black, white and gold. I've been thinking of adding some color to the mix but I'm afraid I'll hate it and be bothered every time I see it. On the flipside, if its the right color I may just love it. I don't want to do the usual think, teal or pink. I've been thinking of stepping outside of my comfort zone and adding a wild and bold color. Perhaps something that will transition nicely from summer to fall. On my list, Chartreuse.

Since my sofa is black, I think a pair of pillows like this could be ever so chic. I also love the idea of curtains that are bold, right now mine are black and they are ehh.
