There’s something quietly powerful about a coffee table book. It’s decor, yes—but it’s also a mirror. It shows what you’re drawn to, what you’re curious about, what kind of spaces you dream about when no one’s watching.
We don’t usually talk about rejection until it’s safely in the past. Once it’s been reframed, polished, and packaged as a success story. But in real time, rejection rarely feels inspiring. It feels confusing. Personal. Sometimes even embarrassing.
Yet, again and again, the stories we admire most are built on moments where something didn’t work out the way it was supposed to. A door didn’t open. A vision wasn’t immediately understood. A “no” forced a pause—and eventually, a pivot.
Rejection doesn’t mean the end. More often, it’s the redirection towards something better.
Lately, athleisure has been my everyday uniform—think supportive sneakers like New Balance, elevated leggings such as Vuori, stylish and structured joggers from brands like Anthropologie or Nike, and belt bags that make moving through the day seamless and hands-free. These pieces may seem simple, but they’ve become essential in a season of life that’s full, fast-paced, and constantly in motion.
If your first reaction to “’70s interior design” is shag carpet nightmares and questionable color combos — stay with us. Because the ’70s are officially having a moment again, and this time around, they’re cooler, more curated, and way more intentional.
Interior design right now is craving warmth, personality, and a little bit of drama. Enter: the decade that gave us bold color, low furniture, cozy textures, and a general rules are optional attitude. Suddenly, what once felt dated now feels expressive — and honestly, refreshing.
Season 5 of Emily in Paris takes our favorite style protagonist from the chic streets of Paris to the historic avenues and piazzas of Rome—and with that shift in scenery comes a striking evolution in fashion. What we see isn’t just a new backdrop; it’s a new style language that mirrors Emily’s emotional arc, her bold choices, and the vibrant pulse of Italian fashion.
There’s something about the week between New Year’s Eve and the “real world” starting again that feels suspended in time. We’re all collectively thinking about what we want more of, less of, and how to move into the year feeling a little more like ourselves. And while it’s easy to default to the classic “I’m getting off social media!” declaration… most of us know we’re not actually disappearing from our phones anytime soon.
Every year, the announcement of “Paint Color of the Year” sparks conversation across the design world. These colors are meant to reflect not just aesthetics, but culture — how we’re living, what we’re craving, and where design is headed next. While each company approaches this differently, their 2026 picks tell a bigger story about contrast: bold versus safe, expressive versus restrained.
There’s a certain point every year when winter suddenly feels finished — even before the weather agrees. Heavy layers begin to go back into the closet instead of laying on the chair, brighter mornings change our routines, and we naturally start reaching for pieces that feel lighter and easier.
Spring style isn’t really about trends for us. It’s about transition. About shifting how we show up day to day — a little more color, a little more movement, a little less heaviness.
