Get the Look: Dining Room

Lately I've had my mind on a new design for our dining room.  We have dark grey walls and dark furniture and it just doesn't suit the light and bright look that I've been moving towards in my home... but with a baby on the way in less than a month that's going to be on the back burner for a bit.  In the meantime I'll just keep pinning away!  

This dining room from Linda McDougland Design caught my eye on Pinterest.  I love how simple the design is.  It definitely fits that comfortable, easy style I want for my home. Here are a few pieces I found so you can recreate the look yourself!

Molly Sim's Home in Lonny Magazine

Lonny's March issue features some stunning photos of Molly Sim's Beverly Hills home.  It's got a really cool laid back but glamorous vibe- a tough combo to pull off but she does it perfectly.  Here are some great shots from the issue.  Read the whole article here.

I love how everything in this room feels really "grown up" and sophisticated and then the tie dye pillows instantly fun it up.

Love the pop of yellow against all of the grey in this photo.

A glamorous bar cart- really like the way the mirror is off center above the bar cart.

...And the best for last.  I love, love, love this room.  The modern Saarinen table with the soft upholstered wing back chairs and the bright chartreuse drapes- I wouldn't change a thing.

Feeling so inspired by her home here are a few affordable pieces I found that you can purchase for your own home that capture the same feel.

Get the Look: Entryway

This image has been pinned and repinned a zillion time on Pinterest... so much so that I couldn't find the original source! (please let me know if you know the source)  I think the reason it works so well is the neutral palette, simple accessories and the layer of textures. It's all about the texture!  Notice the rustic metal table is offset by the soft throw, the natural straw basket, the softness of the flowers and then the clean modern look of the lamp.  With a little digging I found some affordable pieces to recreate this look.
