The statement hallway is an interior design trend that is slowly growing in popularity, and is not going anywhere anytime soon. Upon researching what these thoughtfully designed hallways are called, there was no right or wrong answer. Hallway, corridor, entryway, vestibule, enfilade are all options but vary depending on their location within the home. For the purpose of this article, a statement hallway is a long hallway with either a wall of windows or a wall of windowed doors on either side of the hall.

Today is officially the last day of summer! I can’t believe summer is over. I’ve been so busy running errands and on daily Zoom meetings with the Chirpyest team. September has just slipped away from me. Now that fall is here, I figured it’s time to do some fall shopping. So many brands have been launching their new Fall furniture collections. One of my favorite brands for fall furniture is Lulu & Georgia. They have a great selection of stylish items. My friend is redecorating her living room and I sent her the photo above as inspiration. I keep seeing these black woven chairs on Instagram. They’re simple and complement almost everyone’s home style. If you’re looking to splurge on great pieces for your home, then check out some of my favorite items I pulled below. The best part is that I received a discount code! Woohoo!

You have to see this Manhattan apartment tour with style icon Candace Marie. I’ve been following Candace for years, and always look to her for fashion inspiration. Recently she shared a tour of her Manhattan apartment and I can’t wait to share how this small space packs a design punch. Candace is a social media consultant @candacemarie.co, a social media professor at Parsons, and founder of @blckincorporate and @marie_moves_. She is incredibly busy, to say the least, and incredibly talented in everything she does.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, which is the perfect one for fall? Sorry, I couldn’t help myself from using that classic rhyme for this blog. We all have gone through a wall mirror phase or you’re currently still in it. Don’t feel guilty because I do adore a beautiful wall mirror. It is one of the best home accessories. Mirrors are perfect for making a small space feel grand by adding style and reflecting light around a room. There are so many different styles to choose from: elegant, modern, rustic, eccentric, and more! I have selected 9 of my favorite mirrors that will dress up any room for fall.

Staircases are about more than just getting from one floor to another. A staircase can be an interior design showpiece that adds value to a home. They are perfect for making great first impressions while entertaining guests. Staircases come in all different shapes and styles. They can be dressed up with accent wallpapers and ornate light fixtures. Or keep the design simple and classic. The fun of interior design is pushing boundaries. While scrolling through Instagram, I came across eight unique staircases. I hope this blog leaves you inspired!

Somehow it’s already September! It felt like just yesterday I was plotting out some summer plans and now it is over! Things are moving so quickly.  I am already seeing Halloween pumpkins and costumes in stores and soon I know I will be seeing holiday decor! Here we go.

As we leave summer behind and ease into autumn, there are the Labor Day sales to look forward to this weekend.  I am not a huge shopper but after taking a look at some of the sales, I may turn into one.  One of my favorite brands is Veronica Beard so I’m super excited to buy these jeans with a stripe down the leg that I’ve been eyeing for a few weeks now. Some of my favorite home decor brands like Pottery Barn, Lulu & Georgia,  ABC Carpet & Home, and more are having amazing sales. I pulled together some of my favorite fashion and home decor items for you to shop!

The smell of pumpkin spice is in the air and you’re cozied up on your couch in a new chunky sweater. Fall is here. This season is all about colorful leaves and warm tones. There is honestly no better feeling. After the warm months of summer, it’s time to redecorate your living room for the fall and winter seasons. Hideaway your summer throw pillows and add stylish cozy textures.

To get you in the autumn mood, I have curated some shopping boards to help get you inspired to decorate your own home.

Kitchen trends are changing again and now, anything but a white kitchen is in. While white kitchens are still incredibly popular and have been over the last few years, it seems like alternative kitchen color palettes are everywhere. Navy, taupe, beige, green, you name it, it’s in, and they are here to stay.

The kitchen above, designed by Shavonda Gardner, is beautifully unique. Shavonda, a California based blogger and interior designer, used deep red cabinetry, dark grey soapstone counters, khaki colored ceramic brick tailes for the backsplash, amazing yellow floral wallpaper, gold sconces, and a gold pot holder rod across the wall from end to end. She mixes and matches colors that aren’t normally used in the kitchen. Shavonda’s kitchen is chic, stylish, bold and totally not white. This is my pick for “stand out kitchen of the year” actually. I love it.

With that said, we now bring you more not-so-white-kitchens – a trend that is taking over kitchen design.

Neutrals are essential for creating an elegant space. It can brighten a room and make it appear larger. Some people don’t love a completely neutral room. And that’s okay! Transform your neutral room by adding earth tones. Earth tones are colors that can be found in nature. Style your room with natural woods and calming colors like muted blues, greens, and browns. It’s a great way to make your neutral room feel more cozy. Get inspired by Anthology’s living room design.

Some of us are going back to the office for work. That means it’s time to put the sweats away (even though we don’t want to). If you’re anything like me, then loungewear and sweats have been on rotation throughout the last year and a half. It’s been nice not having to put myself together on a daily basis for work. However, I do miss my morning routines. Picking out an outfit and brewing my favorite cup of coffee everyday helped get me in the mindset for work. It’s hard to show off a cute outfit via Zoom. Since you’re going back to work, why not turn your office into your own personal runway? We’ve been in quarantine for a long time so why not make everyday a cute fashion moment.

If you think your workwear needs an upgrade, then don’t worry the COCOCOZY team has got you covered. Here are COCO’s picks that you need in your closet to create the perfect outfits for when you go back to work.
