Pet Adoration Decoration

It is no secret that I am a huge pet lover, and there are so many great ways to incorporate your love of Fido into your home decor in a stylish and sophisticated manner. Here are a few ways that I recently worked with artwork to incorporate pets.

Color Story Monday: Margarita

I spent a cold and rainy weekend in London dreaming of margaritas and warm beaches, and although margaritas come in all colors there is one classic greenish-yellow color that makes up a traditional margarita. Add some summer fun with margarita as a color in your home.

1. Margarita by Benjamin Moore
2. Linen napkins from C Wonder
3. Graphic rug in cream and lime from CB2
4. A bar cart for all of your margarita essentials from CB2
5. A two tone bar stool in green and white from ABC Home

The front door of Kelly Wearstler's shop is decked out in her signature combination of marble and brass.

Magazine Storage

I am an avid magazine reader and thankfully my ipad now keeps me from being the magazine hoarder that I was in college. I still pick up magazines in print though and like to keep them around for various amounts of time. To help control the overpopulation of glossy magazines, I keep a storage bin and when it starts to get full I know that it is time to weed out the old for the new.

Here are some great storage baskets that you won't be embarrassed to keep around.

1. Jute storage basket from H&M Home
2. Rugby Stripe Bin from The Container Store
3. Large Milk Crate from Target
4. Canvas and Wood Crate from Pottery Barn
