✨ Beautifully functional storage
From nightstands to dressers to tall chests, every piece is designed to actually work for real life — without sacrificing style.

And because the collection comes in multiple configurations, it makes creating a cohesive bedroom effortless.

Small space. Big style. This Upper West Side studio proves you don’t have to sacrifice personality for function.
Designed for a grad student living in a compact Upper West Side apartment, every piece in this room works overtime. The trundle bed doubles as a sofa by day and pulls out into a guest bed when friends stay over. The “coffee table” is actually two end tables on wheels that can move out of the way whenever extra space is needed.

We chose petite accent chairs with a small footprint, kept the walls, curtains, bedding, and slipcover crisp white, and layered in vintage-inspired art and textures to keep the space feeling light, airy, and collected.

This is proof that even the smallest apartment can feel elevated, personal, and highly functional — without giving up style.

#LTKHome

Petite lamps = the secret to cozy, designer-level lighting ✨💡
Small table lamps may be compact, but they make a major impact. Think of them as functional decor—adding softness, texture, and personality while creating that warm, layered glow every great space needs.

They’re perfect for nightstands, shelves, consoles, desks, and side tables where you want light without visual bulk. A sculptural base or pleated shade instantly acts like a styling piece—no extra accessories required.

Pro tip: Use multiple petite lamps around a room instead of one overhead light for a more elevated, lived-in feel 🤍

Save this if you love cozy, intentional interiors.

#LTKHome

This is how you make a bathroom feel instantly expensive ✨
Soft neutrals, fluted cabinetry, warm brass, and perfectly balanced symmetry = timeless luxury.

This double vanity proves you don’t need bold colors or trends to create impact. Instead, it’s all about:
• Clean architectural lines
• Layered marble textures
• Warm metal finishes
• Light-filled styling

Save this if you’re planning a bathroom refresh and want a look that won’t date in five years 🤍

This is how you turn a simple entryway into a moment ✨
Soft daylight, layered neutrals, and timeless textures come together to create an entry that feels calm, elevated, and intentional. From the warm wood dresser to the sculptural decor and classic beaded mirror, every detail works together to set the tone for the entire home.

If your entry feels “fine” but not finished, this is your sign to focus on balance, scale, and styling layers. A few well-chosen pieces can completely transform the first impression of your space 🤍

This is proof that small design details make the biggest impact. ✨

The secret?
✔️ Code-compliant stair proportions (no cramped steps)
✔️ High-contrast black + white palette
✔️ Art arranged to follow the stair line
✔️ Warm daylight to soften the look

It’s classic, modern, and livable all at once—and exactly how you turn a “pass-through” space into a design feature.

Would you add a gallery wall to your staircase? 👇🖤

#LTKHome

A calm, classic bedroom will never go out of style.
This space layers warm neutrals, tailored upholstery, and soft textures to create a bedroom that feels equal parts elegant and inviting. From the crystal chandelier to the perfectly balanced nightstands and benches, every detail is designed to feel intentional—not overdone.

Design tip: If you want your bedroom to feel instantly elevated, focus on symmetry first. Matching lamps, tables, and pillows create visual calm and make even simple rooms feel custom.

It’s chilly this week in FL, and honestly… this is exactly where we wish we were. Wrapped up in a soft chair, lamp glowing, book in hand, and not a single responsibility in sight.
This little corner is proof that cozy doesn’t have to mean cluttered. Warm neutrals, layered textures, soft lighting, and a statement bookcase create a space that feels calm, elevated, and intentionally styled.
If your home doesn’t have a reading nook yet, this is your sign to create one. All you need is one beautiful chair, one good lamp, and one place that feels like an exhale.

#LTKHome

The difference between “decorated” and designed is in the details ✨

This is what intentional decor looks like. Sculptural accents, layered books, mixed metals, and soft neutrals working together to create a curated, high-end feel. Every piece has a purpose: art to anchor the space, objects to add dimension, and textures that keep it from feeling flat. It’s not about filling space—it’s about choosing pieces that elevate it.

#LTKHome

This is why wall sconces are never “just lighting.”
Each one creates its own personality the moment it’s turned on.

Some feel soft and romantic.
Some feel architectural and structured.
Some feel bold, graphic, and modern.

Shade shape, material, and arm style all change how light spreads and how the fixture reads on the wall. This is what actually determines whether a sconce feels elevated, dramatic, minimal, or warm in your space.

Choosing sconces isn’t about picking what’s pretty.
It’s about choosing the energy you want your room to have.

#LTKHome

This is your reminder that lighting + symmetry = instant luxury.

When you design a space like this, you’re not just decorating—you’re creating architecture inside your home. The wall molding frames the art like a gallery, the matching sconces balance the composition, and that oversized lantern adds vertical drama without feeling heavy.

A few pro tips you can steal:
• Keep your main light neutral and sculptural so it feels timeless
• Use matching sconces to visually widen a space
• Choose artwork with soft movement to contrast structured molding
• Ground everything with a darker console for contrast
• Let daylight do most of the work (it’s the best “filter” you’ll ever use)

This is how you get that “Architectural Digest” look without overstyling or clutter. Clean, intentional, and effortlessly elevated.

#LTKHome

Natural daylight + layered neutrals = instant luxury! 🤍
This office proves you don’t need bold colors to make a statement. It’s all about texture, balance, and lighting.

Here’s what makes this space work:
– Floor-to-ceiling curtains soften the architecture and make the ceilings feel taller
– A symmetrical layout creates calm and visual order
– Mixing black, brass, and soft ivory keeps it elevated, not boring
– Daylight is treated like a design element, not an afterthought

If your workspace feels flat, add contrast and light before buying more decor. A beautiful office starts with smart layering, not clutter.

"Splurge or save, these nightstands are all giving classic, high-end energy. Same timeless silhouettes, similar finishes, and that designer feel we all want in a bedroom. The difference? The price tag.

This is where shopping smart comes in. Save when the design is nearly identical. Splurge when the craftsmanship, materials, or scale truly make a difference. You can absolutely build a luxury-looking space without putting luxury money into every single piece.

High-end style, strategic budget. That’s the real flex. 💅"

#LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

"Lighting placement can completely change the vibe of a space, and this is the perfect example.

Lowering the chandelier just a bit instantly made this bedroom feel more intentional, more layered, and way more luxe. This room also has a tall vaulted ceiling, so hanging the chandelier lower makes the space feel cozier.

This is the kind of detail that quietly takes a room from nice to designer. Go bigger, hang lower, don't be afraid to take lighting risks! They are the easiest to change if you change your mind!"

#LTKHome

These are the pillows that make a room feel finished.
Not louder. Not trendier. Just better.

The secret is balance:
• One statement print
• One subtle pattern
• One soft solid

That trio is what gives you depth without chaos and makes a bed or sofa look layered, intentional, and expensive. When your pillows work together, everything else in the room instantly feels more elevated.

If your space feels close but not quite “there,” this is usually what’s missing. Save this for reference and use it as your formula the next time you’re styling.
