ERIN WASSON X THE COVETEUR

6.05.2013


I remember seeing this shoot on Rackk and Ruin when it first came out, but for one reason or another it didn't stick with me until I revisited it the other day. I love how some elements of Wasson's space are graphic and sculptural while others have an enviable patina, and all of it perfectly reflects her personal brand of rock-'n-roll cowgirl chic. I know I've been on that Scandi grind, but I really like here seeing the way her tchotchkes and mementos and artifacts mesh so well with all sorts of cool rich white lady shit like Prada shoes and expensive candles.





I'm currently apartment hunting like a wild banshee and will hopefully, by some point this summer, have my own #supercute space to share with you guys. Until then, you know where to find me. (Pinterest is where to find me.) All photos via The Coveteur. Like this post? Check out one of my other favorite Coveteur'd interiors here!

Mid-Century Modern

2.08.2013

I've had this post gestating in the back of my mind for awhile now, because I am ~*obSesSEd*~ with midcentury furniture. I don't technically know what defines it (how mid is mid?), but I know that I like the look of it. Part of it might also be its ubiquity in every home to which I find myself really drawn, homes with clean lines full of natural materials and natural light bouncing off white walls, with lots of plants and antiques. It's a versatile aesthetic that can lean towards the bohemian end of things, which is why I feel it suits me really well. My bedroom can be a multilayered souk and my living room can exude Danish Hygge; the space itself more of a gallery for the calculated layering of mementos, art and artifacts.



One home I've found myself really falling for is Morgan Satterfield's California desert oasis (photos above; click through for the original post). Satterfield's blog, The Brick House, makes even DIY photos look interesting, plus she has a wicked sense of humor and an incredible eye for art, textiles, furnishings, decor...you name it. She's basically the interiors blogging messiah and her home is my digital temple. Too much? Maybe. Satterfield also works as an interiors stylist and her projects, including Husky Ranch (as seen on Design*Sponge, below) have a deliciously handmade feel with Southwestern flair.


But I digress...the internet is a big place and I have to admit that it isn't just Satterfield's home that has me swooning. I loved finding Spanish designer David Delfin's home on Yatzer. Again: white walls, natural materials, plants, great art—and midcentury furniture.


And below I've pulled two more inspo images for us to ruminate on. The first, from Modern Thrifter, is just a pitch perfect deskscape. (Are we saying "deskscape," now? Can we?) I love the gold accents in the home accessories; below that we have Azzedine Alaïa's Paris bedroom. Maybe, at the end of the day, a little spartan for my tastes, but that lighting fixture and the mint green armoire are almost too good to be true.


Saarinen tables and Eames lounges, oh my! How do we feel about this mid-century madness? Like this post? Check out more of my living entries, then check out my design boards on Pinterest!

HANDTOOLED

New belt from Low Vintage. I love the detailing - I think it's a wonderful, relatively low-key alternative to giant rodeo-themed belt buckles. And it looks très bon with my Daisy Dukes!
