WOVEN ACCENTS IN MY HOME | LULU & GEORGIA

This month I’ll be revealing bits of my DUMBO, Brooklyn loft! So much sweat was put into getting it just right. Home for me is always a work in progress. But I like to start with the little details. My favorite things to shop for are rugs and woven pieces to warm up my already minimal home. I immediately went to Lulu & Georgia. I love their play on color and texture. They carry every type style, but I love their beautiful exotic collection. I of course gravitated towards the Sauri wool rug. I went with the extra large size for my living room. It’s dramatic and really brightens up my space. How beautiful are the deep red colors? I clearly have a thing for red. It’s so vibrant and bold! So most of my house bounces off it’s industrial red accents like the painted pipes and bright barstools.

There’s also something about sheepskin I can’t get enough of. I like them casually thrown over a chair, or like here, thrown over my couch. It’s simple, chic, and extra cozy. The long “Alma” sheepskin rug is a transitional piece that can be styled anywhere. 

When it comes to hanging things on my walls, I’m still slowly finding artwork from my travels and adventures. But I love to play off textures. So I snagged a Lulu & Georgia wall hanging reminds me of my childhood. Of all my colorful wool knits. It adds a bit of an earthy element to my entryway. Though I love the industrial, minimal vibe, my style is still super quirky.

HELIX SLEEP

So I just got back home to Dumbo, Brooklyn after a month long of traveling. Yes, I’m completely wiped out, but I’ve got a ton of work to do on my new loft, next to getting a good night’s sleep because boy is this week going to be non-stop! My couch is almost here. My dining table and buffet table won’t be here for another week, so I figured I may as well begin with putting together my guest room. I just received 2 amazing Helix Sleep mattresses to put together a gorgeous day bed. I’m excited to pile it with metallic pillows and a red comforter. The amazing thing about Helix is you can customize the mattress, and it’s a simple and easy process. We spend the majority of our life sleeping. It’s worth investing in something so important. With Helix, you start by picking the side you sleep on, decide what you love/hate about your current mattress, and what firmness you prefer. Then, they create one that works best for your body type. Totally personalized.

For me, I always sleep on my side. I love my mattress very firm. And I nearly never wake up in the middle night, ever. I shall continue to sleep like a baby from now!

My story on my home and loft will be out soon. Patiently making it perfect.

MAGIC CARPET RIDE

abc-home-natalie-suarez-style-5

Home decor is one of my main inspirations. A beautiful, warm, and inviting home makes you feel good the moment you wake up. Your life just feels more put together, like you can conquer anything. Like most New Yorkers, I have moved a million times in the city. Now that I will finally be making my new loft a real home, I am investing in some really spectacular pieces. ABC Home has always been the store I visit to gather inspiration. The colors so vibrant and beautiful on each floor. Taking me from city to city, bedroom to bedroom, with their artistic and unique displays. I dream of them! But my favorite section is the rugs and carpets on the 6th floor. From the hand-knotted silk pieces from India…rich in greens and yellows, to the antique Tibetan rugs…their red hues just filling a room with warmth. For my loft, I will be playing with a lot more color. My style has always been eclectic and bohemian, but still earthy. Complete with a modern touch.  I can’t wait to finally make home feel a lot more me. A place to get creative. And what better way than starting it off with some beautiful finds brought in from all over the world. ABC Home is having their winter sale, and what a perfect time to move and stock up on timeless, out of this world home goods. I shall be taking a magic carpet ride every day from now on.
