12 Stunning Two-Toned Kitchens

April 4, 2017
  • Share

Must love a great two-toned kitchen.  Right? Because of my new COCOCOZY Color Block rug collection, I am all about the color blocking in home decor this season.  About a year ago, my mother had her lower cabinets painted a lovely blue and her upper kitchen cabinets painted white. It is nice to have a mom who is instinctively ‘on trend’!  Love the idea of juxtaposing large monochromatic blocks of color in a room.  I am doing a room makeover for a girls’ room right now.  My little “clients” love pink.  I decided to give them a color blocked room with a perfect pink ceiling and white walls.  It turned out sooooo cute.  So since I am all about two-toned spaces and things…today I bring you 12 stunning two-toned kitchens.  Hope you enjoy!

11 Stunning Vaulted Ceilings

March 28, 2017
  • Share

So…if you are following along on my instagram account you will see that I am currently vacationing in the Dominican Republic!  It is lovely here.  I am staying at my friend’s boutique resort, Playa Grande Beach Club.  It is a charming spot right on the water with beautiful ocean views and amazingly charming architecture.  One of the things all of the house here have are amazing vaulted ceilings.  High ceilings make even the smallest space feel light and airy and grand.  Note to self, find a house with vaulted ceilings.

Here are 11 stunning vaulted ceilings for your viewing pleasure!

8 Perfect Off the Shoulder Tops for Spring

March 21, 2017
  • Share

In just a few days, I am off for a spring break holiday in the Dominican Republic. Going with best of friend AM, her hubby JE, our friend MR, all of their kids (AM has two and MR has three kids) and SFJ is joining us too!  MR’s hubby JR can’t make it so on this trip, JE and SFJ will be outnumbered!!  When MR, AM and I get together on vacation, it is always fun and a little chaotic (in a good way).  It will be so much fun.  Cannot wait.

Anyhoo…that brings me to off the shoulder tops.  Am so happy this style is still in this season.  About two years ago, these shoulder baring tops made a resurgence in fashion and now it looks like the trend has become a fashion staple.  Here a few I am liking for spring.

27 Unique Faucets

March 14, 2017
  • Share

So many shapes and sizes and finishes for kitchen faucets and bathroom faucets.  If I ever find another house and remodel another kitchen, I plan on going pretty simple for the faucet.  However, I must say, I was surprised to see how many creative and unique faucets there are out in the world!  Brass, copper, chrome, stainless or black for finishes.  Two handle, wall mount, single handle, ball or  bridge faucets.

Here are 27 of the most unique looking faucets we could find…

9 Noteworthy Rustic Wood Ceilings

March 13, 2017
  • Share

I listened to one of those TED Talks this weekend.  It was all about decision making and choices.  Basically, the whole hour was about making decisions and feeling good about those decisions.  Picking and sticking with it.  It was perfect as I went into my weekly weekend house hunt.  I was listening to the TED Talk as I was driving around every random neighbor hood in Los Angeles, looking a potential houses.  My takeaway was that I had to pick a neighborhood, decide that I am actually going to buy a house and commit.

So what does this have to do with noteworthy rustic wood ceilings?

27 Pretty Plates for Spring

March 9, 2017
  • Share

I love setting a pretty table.  I just do.  Give me any occasion and I’ll happily pull out the flatware, dishes, glasses, table linens, and come up with a fabulous centerpiece arrangement.  Last year, I felt like I was setting tables and making tablescapes ALL of the time…like here and here and and I even made a video of me setting a spring luncheon table here. The key to a great table can be plates.  Easy to top a white dinner plate off with a colorful patterned salad plate…or going all in with a single high design plate for your meal.  The best way to greet guests to your home for a meal is to have a really inviting and cheerful table setting I think.

So today I bring you 27 pretty plates for Spring.  Spring is coming soon.  Time to dine in style.  See if you like any of these pretties we picked out.

Introducing Cococozy Tower Court Rug

February 24, 2017
  • Share

The other day I got a text from friend VS who worked for COCOCOZY at one point.  She said “I love this COCOCOZY rug” and sent me a picture of my new Tower Court rug.  I then realized that in all of the excitement of the holidays, the new year, January reboot, general February busy times, I had forgotten to introduce to you the latest from my rug collection!

I am so proud of this new rug.  It is one of my favorite.  An indoor/outdoor rug that is versatile, good looking and…AFFORDABLE!!!  Woohooo.

13 Beautiful Double Doors

February 22, 2017
  • Share

I love beautiful double door.  When I am in France each summer visiting my mother’s amazing rental apartment in Paris, I am reminded that my dream house must have a double doors somewhere. Mom’s Parisian summer flat has tall ceilings and glorious double doors leading from the dining room to the living room.  Classic, tall, with molding, striking substantial knobs and some door trim that stands out.

Would love to have interior double doors leading to a bedroom or dining room. Something so elegant about flinging open two doors to a room.

Here are 13 double doors I am loving. A little design inspiration for a Tuesday!

Over the last few months, I have been trying to highlight Instagram micro bloggers who have a distinct style.  Their following may not be enormous but their style is large.  They come from all over the world and are from varied backgrounds.

This search for those smaller bloggers has lead me to create The Chirpyest page.  A name by best of friend came up with…but an idea dreamed up by me.  I’ll share more on that later.

Today I bring you this weeks favorites.  Check them out.

13 Cozy Sweaters

January 11, 2017
  • Share

Who doesn’t love a cozy sweater?  Right?

Here in Los Angeles, any time the weather drops below 65 degrees, I am FREEZING.  I was born and raised in Southern California so I am not accustomed to climate changes! 😉

Seriously though, I have been seeing reports all around the country of knee deep snow storms and a general chill.  If you are not able to travel to a beautiful tropical warm spot to warm up, the second solution is a cozy sweater…there are a lot of good ones out there right now…here are my picks for this season.

Hello 2017 – Happy New Year!

January 1, 2017
  • Share

Here we go!  Happy New Year!  2017 here we come.

Every year about this time, I write my New Year’s Eve post.  Somewhat reflective…with lofty goals in mind. I’ve challenge myself and I always challenge you dear readers to grow.  This annual post is always a little sappy and a little wistful…but also hopeful and optimistic definitely.

This year is different.  It is all about looking forward and being doggedly optimistic.  I say bring it on 2017.  Bring it on. I am ready to conquer the world!

I literally danced my way out of 2016. I did.

Keep it simple. No need for bells and whistles an Keep it simple.  No need for bells and whistles and fancy things to make your house a home.  In this picture, a plant, two chairs I found at the flea market, a layered rug situation and some modern art...de-cluttered space can be equally as inviting as one filled with memories and treasures.  If you are stuck with how to decorate, I say keep it simple.  Purge and start with the basics.  Full disclosure, this is a shot of my living room from a few years ago when I first moved in...I didn’t even have drapes up when this was taken.  I have since added pieces and changed out furniture and added a 2nd sofa...but it started super simple and it was lovely back then.  When the world is swirling around us and making no sense, how are you keeping things simple at home?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last year.  Clueless as to what was to come.  Was in Paris, with my mom, enjoying her summer apartment in the middle of the 6th arrondissement.  I had just left the U.K. visiting friends for a few days in London and the Cotswolds.  None of us knew that this summer 2020 would be so different.  Today, I can only hope this time of tumult and great divides leads somehow to a future of calm and harmony.  Going backwards in time is not an option.  Pushing forward is.  Happy Sunday to you.  Where were you last summer?  Where do you imagine you’ll be next? Xoxo #socococozy #bringstylehome
Incredible living room before and after as designe Incredible living room before and after as designed by my good friend Steve Jones @bettershelter!  I went on a tour today.  I also went on a tour a year ago when he first got the house.  See my stories. Swipe to see what this room looked like before.  Life lesson from a room transformation:  When faced with the daunting and not so pretty, look to do the work, and you can make changes to bring  out what is good.  Right?  This home by the way is going on the market soon and is in one of my favorite parts of town, View Park.  What changes have you made lately that have turned bad into good? #socococozy #bringstylehome #remodeling #homerenovation #californiadreaming
“Be patient with yourself it has been a funky fe “Be patient with yourself it has been a funky few months in the world.” My friend Manon texted this advice to me today.  She is right.  A little patience and a lot of kindness to yourself and to others during these unusual times will go a long way.
***
Am in my living room right now looking at these pretty flowers in that white urn I found lying around.  The urn works (see Flower Power highlights for backstory). Thinking on who I might send one of these bouquets to today as a little act of kindness.  Still working on the patience piece of her advice! 🤪 Who might you send flowers to?  How can you be more patient with yourself? Happy Saturday!

Hi! Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciti Hi!  Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciting flower news today as I debut the first ever COCOCOZY designed bouquet in my latest partnership! Tada.

Who might you send these to?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
