It’s been a whirlwind month of renovating my nyc loft and I am so happy to be back to work in a refreshing mindset. I wanted my home to reflect that feeling of renewal and fresh starts. I envisioned a super soft color palette that still felt playful with little pops of color like sage greens, terracotta bedding, and coral pinks. I wanted my space to feel calm, harmonious, yet still vibrant. I had my walls painted a stunning grey-green, called Road to Todos Santos by Backdrop (I gravitated to the fact that Todos Santos, Mexico is one of my favorite places, with the most beautiful landscapes and sunsets). I also partnered with Lulu & Georgia on a bedroom reset to match the walls. The Lee dresser is an incredible statement piece that also gives me a lot more storage. Modern and luxurious. The Linen Chinoiserie Wall Art is the perfect piece above the headboard and I love how it blends into the walls. It feels serene and dreamy and full of love. The Roscoe nightstands brings balance and soft edges to the room. The Deller hand-loomed wool rug in olive feels so plush and like a cloud on my feet. I think the bedroom will always be the most important room in a home. I’m so excited for this next chapter of balance and love.

I just updated the dining space of my NYC loft with Rove Concepts and it’s a total breath of fresh air! This creamy color palette feels clean and minimal. It’s so refreshing. It’s exactly the calm mood I want to call in for the springtime. Meet the Tiberius Dining Table and Tola Dining Chairs. I wanted a statement dining table that felt grand and strong, sitting in the center of my home! The Tiberius Table in white travertine is inspired by Roman architecture. It’s the definition of timeless elegance, designed to last. I love the way it shines off my chandelier. It’s the most perfect piece to transition from intimate everyday moments with loved ones to a glamorous dinner party. I paired it with the Tola Dining Chair in fawn shearling to add a little playfulness to the final look of the room. The Tola Dining Chairs are plush, elegant, and the most comfortable. The details and design are incredible and so well made.

There’s a reason I lean to Rove Concepts over and over for my home decor. Rove Concepts is independent and design-driven. They have direct, fair pricing with 15+ years of expertise in craftsmanship with no middlemen markups. Each piece goes directly from design to my home! You can also become an Exclusive Member and receive concierge service at a much lower price. Rove Concepts is a customer-focused company and totally built for modern living. Plus, the delivery from the local warehouses in the US & Canada are so much faster and more reliable. The delivery was super easy and smooth!

I can’t wait to make more memories right here, with my family and friends. This new gathering space just feels so, so good and I’m so excited and ready for what the new season will bring.

It’s nearly winter and the perfect time for me to make my nyc loft feel extra serene and tranquil. I was looking for a mini refresh to my home and fell in love with the new Eternity Modern Wabisabi collection. It’s earthy. It’s natural. My home really needed a round coffee table. It gives my living space a softness. I like to think it represents togetherness and gathering people together. I also added another simple, wood end table piece from the Wabisabi collection to hold up my favorite snake plant. Because of it’s natural finish, each piece feels perfectly imperfect and peaceful. It’s amazing what mini upgrades can do your home. This thoughtful and elegant new collection was just what I needed.

Sun down at home is my favorite time of day. My home gets this beautiful champagne gold glow through my sheer linen drapes. I’m a lot more of a minimalist these days in all aspects of my life and I love how clean and fresh my bedroom feels right now. This space is my sanctuary. Slipping into a silk robe and fresh white Lulu & Georgia sheets from their new home collection feels like a perfect start to the weekend. I’ve been absolutely nonstop with work this month here in NYC, so being home in this sunny spot is my little escape from the rest of the world.

Dressing up as Barbie at home in this beautiful set. I love this summer’s pink phenomenon surrounding the movie. I do own a lot of pink! It brings back so many childhood memories, playing make-believe with my sister and our Barbie dolls, and just being totally wrapped up, in love with them. Some of our Barbies were elegant and some of our Barbies were eccentric. It was a perfect combination.

This look is both classic and unusual, and that’s what I love about it. There’s a lot of things going on in these images, shot in my home. Color pops! Prints! My home is eclectic and fun. You’ll find my favorite pink velvet chair, a new statue, and some marble. Find anything that you love most?

Sometimes I really do blend into my home decor. My love for interior design and fashion really do go hand in hand. There are some days I’m inspired by what’s in my home and vice versa. Life is just art, isn’t it? Black and white is an easy go-to for me, and you really can’t go wrong with a RASARIO dress. I love this unique combination. A super sleek dress gets an unexpected wow factor once you look down at my boots. Neutrals can still be extra fun if you just get a little creative and look around you.

I hope for more relaxing days like these in 2022. A little behind the scenes from a project shot with BCBGMAXAZRIA and it’s all about comfort and simplicity. This is my home uniform. It happens to be great for movie nights or working on my laptop on the couch. I’m still easing into the new year, without any rush. Sit, breathe, and stretch.

I worked with Lulu & Georgia on a super cool guest room edit, just for you! This is a room in my loft that I’ve been really excited to renovate and freshen up. After a fresh coat of paint in a clean off-white, I went straight to the decor. I gave my guest room and bath crisp linen bedding, light oak wood cabinets, and chic brass lighting. These soft colors make this space feel much more clean and bright. Guest room just got homey. Shop my favorites below.

I got to site down with the Lulu & Georgia team here at home for an interview to discuss chic holiday decor, how I ended up in Dumbo, and the perks of having your sister and best friend as your neighbor, living in the same building in fact! When browsing the Lulu & Georgia site, I went for pieces I knew I’d keep forever when shopping for my holiday decor, with a very minimal approach. That’s my mindset whenever I’m decorating or picking up new pieces. To keep it minimal but merry, I just added a little green with a eucalyptus garland, fresh flowers, and some beautiful mood lighting.

Maybe invest in a timeless chandelier or table lamp. Centerpieces always add an artistic element to your holiday decor that feels timeless but fun.

My tip is to keep your decor elegant, with a less is more approach. The cake stand is a really special and cool piece because everyone loves dessert, and it’s beautiful. I kept my color palette mostly gray and beige, with little pop with the red ranunculus. The wine glasses in blush are elevated but still understated, which I love.
