    Isn’t it amazing how gingham or ‘vichy’ as the French say, just never ages!

    I just noticed that the curtains are gingham too! Love this.

    Also, went on J.Crew’s site and they’ve sold out of that shirt today! They were in stock this morning when I posted! I saw that dozens and dozens of you clicked on that link to J.Crew today…so hopefully it was COCOCOZY readers who snatched up all of those shirts!!

    That sofa is really interesting. I love the huge tufts in the back and the low arms. Combined with that fabric it really is quite unusual. Great find of the gingham trend!

    I think gingham in an understated neutral tone can be very charming, and even a little “Frenchy” looking (similar to a monotone plaid!). Thanks for sharing these photos!

The Art of Styling a Coffee Table! Begin by choo The Art of Styling a Coffee Table! 

Begin by choosing a rectangular or a round shapes coffee table. They’re both timeless shapes that will complement almost every home design style: traditional, modern, contemporary, boho, farmhouse, etc. However, there are pros and cons of both. 

Round coffee tables take up less space and are safer for children due to the lack of sharp edges. If you have a small living room or apartment then round coffee tables might be the right choice for you.

Rectangular coffee tables are more common, which means you’ll have more options while you’re shopping (this can be a good or bad thing depending on the shopper LOL). The rectangular shape is great for controlling foot traffic in a space and can take up a lot of empty space in a large room.

The decor process is all about levels, colors, and textures. It’s all about finding the right balance. The pros stack coffee table books to create height. You can add also add a candle, paper weight and/or a decor accent. Make sure to add your own personal style! 

Do you prefer rectangular or round coffee tables?

A quick history lesson for this Monday morning. Th A quick history lesson for this Monday morning. This Spanish-style home located in Malibu is actually a museum. I visited the Adamson House a few years ago. The beachfront house was built in 1929 and sits on six acres. The home was designed by Stiles Clement for Rhonda Ridge and her husband Merritt Adamson. The Adamsons used the property as their beach house until 1936 when they started living there year-round. Rhoda's father, Frederick Hastings Ridge, was the last owner of Malibu making the Adamson House a historical landmark. No photos were allowed inside.
