Gwyneth Rug curated on LTK

The base layer of my living room is finally complete! I worked with two local PDX artists, Purl and Billy, to create my dream coffee table. It’s the perfect counterbalance to this textural blue rug, these gorgeous soft green sofas, and a midcentury modern-inspired statement lighting fixture. Stay tuned to see how we style out the space :)

By popular demand - here are the three @summerfridays products I use to build a moisturized, even-toned, and sun-protected base. (You can tell that I’m putting that Cloud Dew to work. I love the texture and it’s super cooling - perfect for summer!!) Have been buying for a loooong time and it’s an honor to spread the word. Have you tried?? #ad

It is high time for the eyesore that is the lamp cord to disappear and @lumensdotcom has some VERY cute cordless lamp options. I added these three around the house and I love how you can move them around anywhere (read: I love constantly restyling my house). Which lamp is your favorite? #cordlesslamps #outdoor #design #interiordesign #decor #bringithome #lumenspartner

no outlet? No problem. I’ve been sourcing my cordless lamps from @lumensdotcom for years (seriously, that lamp on the left was featured in one of my design projects more than 5 years ago!). No matter your style, Lumens has a cordless lamp you’ll love - some of my stylist-approved favs below :) #cordlesslamps #outdoor #design #interiordesign #decor #bringithome #lumenspartner

My most unexpected design advice? I always splurge on the statement pieces - they’re the conversation starters and the things that make your home feel like YOU. All of these pieces are on sale this weekend, too (and can you believe that’s a SLEEPER SOFA?!)

It’s your last chance to grab these chairs on DEEP DISCOUNT through @wayfair’s Way Dale sale, which ends today. They’re so comfortable and they make a great base layer - I loved playing around with rugs, pillows, and styling because I knew they would anchor my space in a beautiful way. RUN, DON’T WALK!!! #wayfairpartner #noplacelikeit #sale

So pleased with these cheery, bright, whimsical pieces from @mackenziechilds. They’re easy to work into any decor scheme and they bring in the perfect hit of pattern and texture. Have them peppered around my home and love the energy they bring to these little vignettes :) #mcpartner

Front porch refresh: I was extremely drawn to these ruffled striped pillows (also available in red/pink which are sooooo fun, all from @anthropologie too). For outdoor pillows, they are extremely plush and mushy (in a good way, not too stiff). I mean, the scalloped sisal pillow is also very cute (but less smooth as you can imagine). You’ll see these float around my yard this summer. #ad #anthropartner

Lunch date, anyone?? Set up a cute tablescape in honor of Gretchen’s workaversary, featuring a few of my favorite finds from @Anthropologie :) (PS. if your mom is like me and she loves entertaining, these would make great Mother’s Day gifts!) #ad #anthropartner

Springtime is making my job look easy . Threw a few cut branches into a new vase from @Anthropologie and suddenly this counter feels a lot more polished and seasonal :) #ad #anthropartner

She’s cool, she’s moisturizing, she’s cloud dew by @summerfridays! I stocked up at the @sephora Savings Event (you can see my GRWM in an earlier post) - did you grab any??? #ad #LTKxSephora

#LTKbeauty #LTKover40

Admittedly I was influenced by Gen Z tweens selling out @summerfridays stuff on tik tok. Anyway, I, a 44 year old mom, decided that I too wanted in on how these 12 year olds are staying moist and wrinkle free (LOLOLOLOLOLOL). So I tried the Cloud Dew and lordy it is moisturizing. My historically dry skin loves it and I crave it around 7pm every day when my face has been too exposed to the elements. (It’s on sale for a few more days during the @Sephora Savings Event, if you want to try. My favs below…) #ad #LTKxSephora

The fireplace is pretty darn cozy and the TV above it (a Samsung Frame, obviously) gets use on the weekends when the kids dominate the family room with garbage and I fold clothes while binging my own garbage (but we don’t watch TV in here as a couple, strangely, like EVER). The fireplace is from Heat & Glo and is awesome. It works via remote and you can control the heat level and the flame height. It does make the room really warm so I only use it on cold days (or sometimes just for 15 minutes for a mood boost).

#LTKover40 #LTKhome #LTKstyletip

It’s official: I dove into the flared leg trend. I tried on like 14 pairs of these y’all and these are hands down the best. So cute, fun, and very flattering IMHO (the proportions of the flare make other parts of your body look more balanced if you are into that).

The blue shirt I’ve had forever from Lululemon (I love the finger holes). The vest is super cute (I love the shoulders coming out farther than my arms) and has big old pockets with zippers for doggy bags and my phone.

This side of the room you’ve probably seen a ton during all my selfie fashion stories. The picture light, light switches, and the mirror are all from Rejuvenation (a large and lovely partner on this project). I only wish that I could magically move the sconce down because the space between the mirror and the sconce is more than I’d like. But it’s so not a big deal so it’s likely going to stay.

#LTKstyletip #LTKfindsunder100 #LTKhome

That warm taupe shearling chair against the dark blue, with the brass and our pretty rug popping in – it’s just so balanced and cozy. This is probably the best representation of the paint color – it has a lot of depth to it. Also, look closely and you might see an alpaca in the backyard:)

Anybody that cooked in my house was enraged by how we were treating our knives (see on the right) by, you know, shoving them in a drawer with everything else willy nilly. It bugged me too, but just was never on my priority list. So I got to work taking everything out, assessing what I actually use frequently, storing the rest in the pantry or in the long utensil drawer and then of course buying some product to keep things more organized, giving everything a place.

SO. MUCH. BETTER. After searching for the perfect knife holder for a long time (our drawers are only 3″ deep on the inside) I ended up buying this from The Container Store which is what we had at the mountain house, too. The soft cork is way nicer to the knives and more satisfying (and it can hold way more than just 4, but for the shot we didn’t overload it). I also want to give a shout out to my new narrow measuring spoons (top right) that can fit in every single of my herb/spice bottles (whereas the round white ones on the bottom left can’t). TBH I included the white tablespoons in there because they looked cute, but you obviously only need one set and I def opt for the “uglier” narrow measuring spoons every time since I bought them. The knives are from Made In Cookware and they are sooo pretty (and super sharp and heavy, but to be fair are also new). Oh, and I had to use these really shallow drawer dividers that have cross dividers and they are good for us, but most drawers can handle 4″ drawer dividers. Here’s a link to ours. And all our extra knifes are on a magnetic knife block on the pantry counters, in here just what we use frequently (I don’t love kitchen counter clutter, but like WHO DOES?)

#LTKfindsunder50 #LTKfamily #LTKhome

I love this shot so much. The chair and ottoman are from Crate & Barrel (and so comfy/cozy and on the lower side FYI). I LOVE its color/texture against the blue wall color so much. The articulating sconce from Rejuvenation is dope, and the art from Bonita Interiors is one of my favorites (and yes, I wish it were centered on that wall but then it would be in front of the light switch that we fully don’t need. Ha). Speaking of things we don’t need – we never use that door. It’s pretty though!!!! Whoops.

#LTKhome #LTKSpringSale #LTKstyletip

11 pairs purchased, 11 pairs donated. Everyone knows I love my @Bombas socks (they’re comfy and they come in a lot of cute cuts, colors, and styles) but they also make me feel GOOD, you know? #ad #bombas

The bed, as you might have read, was custom-designed for the guest room (and works so perfectly in there) but a week before the Real Simple shoot the bed we ordered still hadn’t arrived. So we had them assemble this here (and liked it enough to keep it in this room). It’s a Rebecca Atwood tiny print fabric that has mauve, cream, and blue in it. And the arch works so perfectly with the reading sconces. The coverlets are from Parachute and they are GORGOUS. If I could give one note (and I like a note, it needs to be much bigger). We layered two so that it could cover over the pillows without showing the base. They are so pretty and feel like they’ve been washed a million times. Also, that long bolster pillow is the best and that round pillow on top, while being super hard and not exactly a head-resting pillow, looks pretty darn cool.

#LTKover40 #LTKstyletip #LTKhome

This one is nice and roomy in the pits (just how I like them) so that it can be thrown over and layer well. It’s my new favorite. It has multiple pockets that close (stop it with the side pockets where things fall out easily) and a little gather to break up the boxiness. Here I’m modeling last year’s Madewell shorts (these are oversized and I roll them up) with some cute 70s-inspired Bombas and my new strangely flattering New Balances (the shape of the shoe when you look down is legit very cute).

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal #LTKshoecrush

Lo and behold, I’ve tried some new jeans! And I’m happy to report that they are both “in” and they look good. MAMA’S STILL GOT IT! All these pairs are from @madewell, they have great construction and a comfortable waist, and my younger team (who dresses more hip and cool than I do) loved each of these pairs on me. Great options if you’re interested in trying a new silhouette! #ad #madewellpartner #madewell

she’s easy, she’s breezy, and she’s ready for warmer weather! Love this throw-on-and-go spring dress (and adding a little shape with a chambray shirt around the waist).

This one is a long sleeve shirt dress and that pattern is very forgiving and easy to wear. Would be cute with sneakers or flip-flops, too. The fabric is a bit thicker than cotton (think closer to a thin canvas?) which felt nicely structured.

#LTKover40 #LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

I thought this windbreaker was really cute, but it’s super pricey so I’d say unless you run frequently in wind/rain it might be a bit too splurgey as a normal jacket. Highly recommend it for those who need more technical gear, though.
