Dream Closet

Happy Friday, loves! Last weekend I officially accepted that summer is over by putting my warm weather clothes into storage and pulling out my heavier fall and winter wear. Let me just say that although it is a bit of an annoying task to check off the list, I can't get over how much fun it is to feel like I have a completely new wardrobe without spending a single dollar!

In attempting to neatly organize my clothing, I kept dreaming of how wonderful it would be to have a spacious walk-in closet complete with beautiful decor. In scouring the internet, I found a few lovely closet spaces that I would move my wardrobe into in a heartbeat! Tell me, what would be an essential in your dream closet?

Interior Insipiring Fashion- Mexico

I mentioned on Monday that over the weekend my mom and I sent my dad off to Mexico until December. He is a college professor and is taking his first sabbatical after over 30 years of teaching in higher education! While he's in Mexico, he'll be working on his art and teaching classes with Oaxaca Streetchildren Grassroots, an organization that aims to provide access to education for children in Oaxaca, Mexico. With Mexico on my mind, I decided to pull up a fitting guest post that I wrote in May for Michelle of Second Street East. Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend!


Taking a cue from Michelle's Going Global post, I decided to highlight some pieces with a Mexican flair. My parents owned a travel agency while I was growing up (it was so amazing!). This combined with my dad living in Mexico while in grad school has lead to my family home being very influenced by Mexican design. After looking around my home, I decided to seek inspiration from a rug (the rug below is similar to one in our living room) and the textile and color books that sit on our coffee table. The patterns and vibrant shades in these interior items drew me to the fashion pieces below!

Tell me, how do global pieces influence your home interior and personal style?

Kitchen Perfection

Fact: I love white kitchens! There's something so refreshing about cooking in a space that looks and feels crisp and clean. Here are a few lovely images that I've found recently while browsing Pinterest. Who wouldn't want to cook in one of these perfectly gorgeous spaces?!

Interior Dreams

A side of myself that I've had yet to show on ATC is my love for beautiful interiors. As the daughter of an artist, I've always been drawn to color, design, and the ability to use both to set the tone of a space.

These Ana Antunes home styling images are my idea of perfection. Light and airy, with a subtle hint of color. Each interior image has me dreaming of how I might style my future home.
