Been feeling so good about the living room, but wondering what the heck I am wearing when I work from home or am managing a busy day with the kids and to-dos. Can’t win em all. I’ll dress better tomorrow. And the living room will still look good 😂❤️🤞

Tiny tiny sneak peek of some Christmas magic for this year… I loved this nutcracker embroidered advent calendar last year but it sold out! Sharing a bunch of Rifle Paper Co faves in this post. Some are 50% off as part of their workbench sale! I love Rifle for the holidays, it’s so fun and versatile, goes with so many home styles!

Perfect fall wine tasting look! Cashmere fisherman sweater, sheer brown tights, and these super comfortable suede boots I’m so excited I got myself.

Now verified: the velvet Mary Jane flats from target are here and they are just as cute in person! So fun for holiday parties or even work.

Earlier this year, I put a lot of thought into my living room furniture and picked out this beautiful blue performance velvet sofa from Interior Define. it arrived and immediately became everyone's favorite couch. My kids play on it and eat on it, we braid hair on it, I have my phone time on it, and I don't even mind when the dog sits on it since it's so easy to clean.
I decided the best option for the couch opposite was... another just like it!! Interior Define is a fabulous source for custom upholstered furniture and ordering is SO fun and easy. You can order your free samples so you can touch the fabrics as well as seeing the cool renderings on their website.

I love the classics, but a little updated, and with the occasional glitter marker set stored inside. Chose these lined pinch pleat linen curtains after much deliberation, love this special cabinet I got on Facebook (I’m only its second owner!), finally found the right size rug for this room… and it all adds up to a home I love that works for my family ❤️ It pays off!! Right?!

#LTKHome

Sherpa vest plus really comfy barrels that are half off! One of you asked me yesterday about how to wear barrel jeans when it’s too cold to wear anything but boots… I think this would work great with Chelsea boots! I’ll try soon and report back!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKSeasonal

The snug fit ribknit tee is a must have! I have it in at least five colors in the short sleeve version, definitely needed this one for fall! Great layering piece. Also trying these new barrels, great shape! Both 50% off today!

#LTKSaleAlert

Just celebrating that I finally have two somewhat matching/balanced vintage mirrors! Alternate caption: two years in, and I still am obsessed with my floral headboard. It doesn’t go with everything, but I *love* what it does go with!

#LTKHome

This time of year, I love love love my outlet timers. I have a few lamps in my living room that turn on around 4 PM till bedtime, but also turn on at 6:30 AM right before I come downstairs. They welcome me to a cozy home rather than a dark one!
I’m linking a couple options; I have a simple crank ones because I have two prong outlets, but I also like the idea of the smart ones!

#LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

Sometimes the biggest impact in a room is a well-dressed window! In my friend‘s dining room, we replaced the white plastic Venetian blinds for this lovely natural bamboo woven textured Roman shade, and for a more traditional, higher-end look, added pinch pleat Belgian linen lined curtains. Such an upgrade to this simple but lovely dining room! The shades and curtains are from @neutralcurtains and I have a discount code for you: use code Suzannah27 for 25% off! Bonus, they ship super fast! They have a ton of great options for bamboo/natural woven shades too.

#LTKHome

Well, now I’m feeling like a chump because I learned you can take oregano oil in pill form. Goes down 1000x easier! Plus it’s a much higher dose. Essential for cold season around here. Seriously it keeps me from picking up colds or keeps them for being bad at all. I take multiple times a day when I have a cold coming on! Evidence based too!

#LTKSeasonal

I feel so grateful for this lovely, peaceful room! Especially when the sun shines in that south facing window. (Which, when we bought the house, didn’t have trim or drywall around it, as you can see. 🤪) Plus I’ve always loved decorating bedrooms! What’s your favorite thing about this room?

#LTKHome

My bed now that there are symmetrical mirrors on either side! Plus some fall colors that I think complement the blue and white headboard perfectly.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

Did a simple but dramatic makeover of my friend’s dining room! The first thing we knew we had to change was the light fixture… right?! Her home is very nice but still had a lot of the builder elements so I knew swapping for something special would change the mood. She chose the Angelo from @rowabi.interiors. (My code SUZANNAHSTANLEY gets you 10% off!) This project is proof that you don’t have to renovate to totally change a mood, right?!
Can’t wait to share her living room update we’re working on next!

#LTKHome

I am completely sold on linen sheets, but I branched out from pure white this time and I love this stripe! I went with this white organic cotton hand quilted quilt to keep it classic but add some fun texture. I chose these for my guest bedroom, but I just love them so much I had to try them first! This soy wax candle too, it has a really fresh, not too sweet scent. These amazing quality pieces are from @onequince so their prices and materials are incredible.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever: cleaned up for guests, put things back after they left, then realized your house is fine the way it is. 🙋‍♀️ The good thing is, when you choose nice things for your everyday, even the regular mess isn’t too bad! (Plus Barbies.)
This dresser is great for storing bedding in our upstairs hall! Pretty and functional too!

#LTKHome

This merino wool sweater jacket is amazing quality, and so easy to style! Instant outfit! I’m wearing it with these lightweight earrings I wear all the time.

#LTKSeasonal

Had the tiniest sore throat and the tiniest bit of congestion this morning as I was waking up, so going to do this a few times today and hope I can fight it!

I put like 6 drops in water and chug. It tastes terrible. Evidence based immune support that works for me!

A must have for cold season!

#LTKSeasonal

Memory lane for this corner of the living room before I go change it again soon 😝. If you’ve had a hard time decorating a living room, you’re not alone… they’re really hard! So many options (I’m sold on two couches here but it took years to figure out), a big and bold room to fill, and high demands for function and storage! Figuring it out may take some trial and error buying and selling on Facebook till you get it right… and time! What’s your favorite sofa color in this spot??

#LTKHome

I’m sure it’s one of those things I’ll miss when they’re older, but for now… I just don’t get it! How can one two children make such a mess?!😂

Linking m this foaming hand soap bottle in my LTK, I looked and looked for just the right ones for ages!

#LTKHome

I’m so excited about my beautiful little kitchen lamp and the light it gives in the evenings, but I was afraid of having a white shade in a kitchen next to where I cut vegetables, etc.! And then it finally did get a spot on it. So I washed it as best I could, and then gave it three coats of Scotchgard to protect it from this happening again! Now I’m wondering what else I should protect?? Anyone tried this?

#LTKHome

This antique table had a lot of funny spots from water and oil and various other things on it, but I didn’t want to refinish so I tried this product, and it has done a great job of covering up the spots without changing the color or texture of the finish. You just rub it on, then wipe it off with a dry side of the cloth. I did the legs too cause they were looking a little worse for the wear. So much better. Still not perfect cause I didn’t sand it down all the way, but so easy and keeps the original style!

#LTKHome

I am a very late adopter of fall colors but I can’t deny they do look great against the blue. 😭 —Someone who is afraid of fall cause it means winter is coming. (Anyone else??)

#LTKHome

Have you tried this product before? I wanted to restore the finish on this table and had a bottle of this stuff sitting on my counter for literally months before I did this in about 15 minutes. It’s a great way to cover up rings and spots without using intense stripping stuff or taking down the finish further. This table is an antique and I didn’t want to change the color, so I got some Restor-A-Finish that matched closely. Worked great!

#LTKHome

This little designer lamp is one of the most fabulous things to ever happen to my kitchen, but I was afraid of getting a mysterious spot on it… And then it happened. Gave me the kick in the pants to finally Scotchgard it. 🙌 Recommend! I love the light it gives in the evening!

#LTKHome

Am I ridiculous for caring this much about my soap bottles? Yes. 🙈 But I think this is called self actualization… when everything else in your life is going well, you can focus on improving the little details. The timeless Nancy Meyers vibes I’m going for in here now make me feel better than the honestly Target and Magnolia knock-off stuff I bought when I was in an unhappy marriage and had a very tight budget and money anxiety. So… Design makes a difference!

Performance velvet is a beautiful thing! I know people make white couches work with kids but honestly… knowing the kids are snacking and playing on the “soft couch” as they call it is such a relief! I don’t worry about it! What a great feeling. Recommend.
This is from @interiordefine and my code SUZANNAH20 gets you 20% off. I did a recent blog post with all the details and am linking this sofa in this LTK!

When I first got this comment, I was like… Haha, yeah, I staplegun-ed scrap fabric to my muddy 2 x 4 playhouse window when I was a kid too. Kind of Flintstones-ey. But then I thought… No, absolutely nothing else about this recently updated kitchen is Paleolithic. But I know a sink skirt curtain is not for everyone! 😂
This cute striped one is super affordable, and I like the classic but not stuffy vibe it gives to my Nancy Meyers-inspired kitchen. I’m linking it plus the brass rod and brackets I used!

#LTKHome

My friend’s kids’ bathroom worked just fine, but had some builder basic touches and needed some cohesive style. We transformed it!
What a difference, right? She likes a light and airy style with some natural textures and calm, feminine elements. Here’s what we used.
- This mirror is the star of the show! SO much better than a frameless builder one!
- We chose a classic polished chrome faucet with elegant transitional handles.
- This light and towel bar set is super affordable and comes with everything you need for a simple refresh!
- We did these solid, heavy knobs in a fresh, shiny chrome too.
- Finally the shower curtain—this semi sheer texture is so nice!
- So happy with this fun, feminine room!

#LTKHome

I’ve been making some changes to my kitchen to hopefully make it more timeless, less organic earthy meets modern traditional designer wannabe. 🤪 These amber glass soap bottles just did not go with the clean, classic Nancy Meyers vibe I want in here. I tried four different options before finding these! Turns out it’s very hard to find a good chrome top. Feels so much more classic and classy in here now!
(But this makes me realize I should really get a better dish brush, get rid of the grey plastic… One step at a time!)

#LTKHome

Can you guess my favorite element of this living room update I’ve been working on for my friend?

We wanted to add some natural elements but keep it feeling very fresh and clean. I found these lovely textured side tables from @hulala_home and they are just the perfect addition! The texture ads depth and the shelves are perfect for simple styling. Plus they complement the statement coffee table so well! They were super affordable and I’m sharing the link in my bio and this LTK post. Use my code SL12 for 12% off!
Stay tuned for some more changes to this room!
#hulalahome #myhulalahome

I’ve been helping my friend update her living room. It’s still a work in progress, but hands-down the most impactful change so far has been these curtains and shades! Adding long, pleated, widely hung curtains makes the window feel so much more important and interesting. We chose Belgian linen pleated curtains and a Ramie bamboo top down shade from @neutralcurtains. I’m linking them in this LTK post and you can get 27% off with my coupon code Suzannah27 through October 14!

#LTKHome

Sometimes I still question this decision. But it’s so much cuter in here now! The sink skirt curtain plus all the other cute but hopefully somewhat timeless charm I’ve added with the plates, woven striped Café curtains, polished nickel hardware, etc. Would you try this?!

Still loving my chrome topped soap dispensers! I remember when the amber glass ones were so cool and desirable, and now they are at target and every new steakhouse dark and moody bathroom. I think we all are enjoying how the Nancy Myers aesthetic brings back classics that feel timeless. I hope we’re all tired of changing things all the time.🤷‍♀️
I’ve become a bit of a soap bottle connoisseur and I’m linking this one, some round ones, and some non-foaming in LTK!
