I’d like to introduce you to my new travel agent… Instagram!

I have been getting so inspired to travel and explore new places through social media. The colors! The history! Who knew hashtags could take me to some of the most beautiful and interesting places around the world.

Take a look through some of my favorite finds and awaken your own travel bug (below)!

How stunning is this spa at the Royal Mansour in Marrakech, Morocco? This 5-star luxury hotel features three-story traditional houses with courtyard patios, living rooms, and rooftop terraces with plunge pools and fireplaces. A dream.

There’s something so special about wandering through a new city’s streets in the early morning before the hustle and bustle begins. I love this gorgeous photo of the quaint, quiet streets of Zermatt, Switzerland.

There is so much culture and history in Africa. The Village of Tiebele, Burkina Faso in West Africa is near the Ghanaian border and is known for its stunning painted mud houses.

The red and pink sandstone of the Hawa Mahal in Jaipur, India is absolutely breathtaking! The structure was built as an extension of the Royal City Palace of Jaipur in 1799 and served as a women’s chamber where the royal ladies could watch activities in the street without being seen by the public. So much history!

I could look at the colorful buildings in Harar, a walled city in eastern Ethiopia, all day! There are 368 alleys (all in one sq. km) just begging to be explored!

Should we all take a little trip across the pond for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s wedding on May 19?! Might as well check out this awesome spot at the Coppa Club overlooking the River Thames in London while we’re at it!

The Palazzo San Felice is a late-Baroque-style palace in Rione Sanità in central Naples that offers amazing architecture and a great excuse to get to Italy! Pizza, pasta, gelato… yes please!

Where should I head first? My bags are packed and I’m ready to go!

Stay adventurous – xo!

    What a fun list! Off the beaten path enough for somewhat seasoned travelers, but accessible enough to feel like realistic destinations. A perfect balance.

The best tables are the ones that invite people toThe best tables are the ones that invite people to sit down, stay awhile, and make memories. ✨
These are a few tablescapes I’ve created in my dining room, each one layered with pieces I love and little details that make the table feel special.
Mix your favorite plates, layer soft linens, add fresh flowers or greenery, and light a few candles. There’s no one right way to set a beautiful table. It should feel collected, welcoming, and uniquely yours.
Comment TABLE below and we’ll send you more tablescape ideas to inspire your next gathering.

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎

The right chandelier doesn’t just light a room, it becomes the room. Scale, material, placement. When it’s done right, everything else arranges itself around it.
Save this for your next lighting inspo and follow for more. 🖤

Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive.Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive. 🌸
One thing I’ve learned is that every outdoor space needs a focal point. It gives your eye a place to land and makes the whole space feel more intentional.
In this courtyard, the bougainvillea naturally becomes that focal point, adding color, height, and movement without overwhelming the space.
If you’re designing your own patio or garden, start with one standout feature, then let everything else support it.
Save this tip for your next outdoor project. ✨

Design by @covetnoir. A 1750 Georgian home in Surr Design by @covetnoir. A 1750 Georgian home in Surrey, restored back to its former grandeur.
Grade II listed and stripped of most of its original character by previous owners, this 9,000 sqft home with seven bedrooms, and five bathrooms was brought back to life for a French-Swedish couple raising two young kids here. The brief: Parisian luxe with a Scandinavian twist, and a design calm enough to keep the grand proportions feeling intimate.
Covet Noir rebuilt what had been lost: full plasterwork, raised & fielded panels, a bespoke decorative ceiling, and added a cantilevered limestone staircase with Nero Marquina cabochon inlay in the entrance hall. The material palette leans into marble and alabaster, softened with boucle and brushed cottons, chosen to hold up to two kids and two dogs without losing the elegance. Antique furniture and architectural fittings were sourced throughout to keep the project sustainable, alongside ground source heating.
Grand bones, calm hand. This is the kind of restoration we could look at all day. 🤍
