Michel Van Devender
















How often do we get to see a turquoise Christmas tree?! So fun! This festive Charlotte, North Carolina home belongs to Michel Van Devender, a designer at Lisa Sherry Interieurs and was featured in the recent Holiday issue of Lonny. I loved Michel's bit of of advice: "Let your home tell the story of who your family is and how you live. People are interesting and have personalities, and so should their homes." Yes! And from I'm seeing above, this is one fun family! You can read all about the home and see lots more photos by Patrick Cline right here!

Studio Ten 25











































Immersing myself in a house full of pretty color (Wythe Blue!), fun pattern and fabulous furniture is what I call the perfect end to the week! This fabulous home was designed by Abbe Fenimore of Studio Ten 25 out of Dallas, Texas (and photographed beautifully by Melanie Johnson) for a newlywed couple that wanted a chic modern look for their first home together. The builder’s standard and more traditional finishes weren't working for them so Abbe had dark espresso hardwoods installed, dated lighting changed out and unveiled a black and white color palette with pops of turquoise and yellow! She also incorporated the wife's love for mirrored pieces while bringing in the bold graphics and masculine touches the husband was after. All in such perfect balance! Isn't the bedroom amazing?! (The couple–and Abbe's favorite room!) The curtains and bedding are so luxurious, not to mention that incredible headboard!

If you love Abbe's style as much as I do (EVERY room she's designed I love, how often can you say that??), definitely visit her online store Shop Ten 25! Also check out her website and blog too....so much inspiration, so little time!! Happy weekend! :)

Tobi Fairley + The Chancellor Hotel












When it comes to style, The Chancellor Hotel in Fayetteville, Arkansas has it going on! How fabulous is their Chancellor Suite designed by Tobi Fairley and photographed here by Rett Peek?! You'd never guess it was even a hotel! Tobi wanted to bring level of sophistication to Arkansas reminiscent of her favorite classic hotels like the Carlyle in New York City, but infused with her signature colorful style that we all love. I could eat up all those turquoise chairs and the yellow sofas...so plush, so gorgeous!! Check out more photos and learn all about the project at Tobi's Blog!

Rêve Décor














Is this room not entirely darling?! Interior designer Tawna Allred of Rêve Décor out of Star Valley, Wyoming created the cheery space, photographed beautifully here by Rebecca White. The room actually belongs to Tawna's two lucky little girls, ages 9 and 4, so she wanted it to be a little more grown up and fun...but also flexible! My favorite thing here is the adorable artwork. Her oldest daughter actually drew the pictures years ago and Tawna turned them into oil paintings! (A fab service she provides for everyone!) I just love the wainscoting, super-cute pendant lights and cozy bedding too! Check out more photos–including before's, and read all about the space right here!
