THIS OR THAT: COUNTRY CHIC BEDROOMS!

July 31, 2012
  • Share
country chic bedroom with reclaimed wood floor, high ceiling, visible beams, and a simple rustic chest of drawers

Which of these two delightfully cozy country chic bedrooms do you like best?

The one above is rustic all the way and the one below is tailored down home living.  Both have exposed beams, paneled walls, pitched ceilings but each feels very different in design.

Which one dear readers…that’s the question today’s THIS OR THAT!

rustic country bedroom with canopy bed, visible beams, two reclaimed wood nightstands and floor length curtains

I’m leaning towards the first as my favorite. Would love to hear which one you pick!  Please weigh comment below!

Happy Tuesday!

    Definitely #2! I agree with Shorely Chic…warm and cozy. I would work, read, eat meals there, and take a few naps. Looks so cozy!

    Definitely #2, much more elegant and cozy. A retreat I’d love to come home to. #1 feels cold and not a place I’d want to curl up in.

Natural light is the one thing every room has in c Natural light is the one thing every room has in common here, but the window shape, wall material, and time of day make each one feel like an entirely different experience. ☀️
It’s a reminder that light isn’t just a condition in a room. It’s a design decision.
→ Save this if you’re thinking about how light works in your own space.

I visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy LaI visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy Langseth @keuramylangseth at her chic Paris studio in the Marais and left completely obsessed! Every bag she makes is intentional, considered, and honestly unliIke anything I’ve seen. The kind of craftsmanship you don’t stumble upon easily.
She’s still under the radar. For now. 😌

This 300-year-old Belgian château redesigned by a This 300-year-old Belgian château redesigned by a French interior designer and architect, Nathan Litera @nathanlitera is a beautiful reminder that good design isn’t about replacing the past, but learning how to live with it. You see it in the preserved millwork, the original fireplaces, the parquet floors, and then in the quiet contrast of contemporary lighting, cleaner silhouettes, and restrained color.
The magic is in the balance. The newer pieces don’t compete with the architecture. They feel intentional, calm, and completely at ease. Nothing is overly styled. Nothing distracts. History stays front and center while the space still feels entirely livable today.
Here’s how to bring that same feeling into your own home:
* Keep your base timeless — neutral walls, classic materials, architectural details if you have them
* Let contrast do the work — modern lighting or furniture against traditional bones instantly updates a space
* Edit your palette — keep colors within a tight range and let texture and form do the talking
* Invest in materials — marble, wood, plaster. They age beautifully and never feel out of place
It’s not about recreating a château. It’s about understanding the feeling that quiet kind of luxury that doesn’t need to announce itself.
Save this for when you want your space to feel layered, timeless, and truly considered. ✨

Sharing with you a day in my life here in Paris. ESharing with you a day in my life here in Paris. Every day for the last few months has been the greatest day ever here. Even days that are not event filled feel special in Paris.
Started with French class on this day. I was taking classes at L'Alliance Français because living here means actually trying to belong here and speak the language.
Then off to the Hôtel de Crillon @rosewoodhoteldecrillon ,a historic palace hotel overlooking Place de la Concorde, known for its timeless interiors and quiet kind of luxury, catching up with a friend like it was the most ordinary thing...in extraordinary place.
So even though nothing momentous happened...wanted to show you what my every greatest day life looks like in Paris.
This city keeps surprising me. 🖤

A soft touch of pink, layered into the space. Not A soft touch of pink, layered into the space. Not overpowering, just enough to warm everything up, walls, upholstery, even the smallest details.
It shifts the mood completely. Calmer, softer, and a little more lived in.
Save this if you’re leaning toward softer, warmer spaces. 🌸
