Things We Love: Southampton Style

Meg Braff + Southampton = Love.

One peek inside this fabulously eclectic home and you’ll get that warm, welcoming summertime feeling!

From a crisp, clean kitchen…

To nautical chic details that are always in style…

To sunny pops of whimsy that would make anyone feel like a kid again…

Meg Braff is one of the best we know at combining all the essential, stylish elements that make a house feel like a home.

Cheerful bedrooms in interesting spaces make guests feel welcome any time.

And soothing bedrooms with pops of color make for restful retreats.

Chic accessories look better by the shore,

And twin beds are perfect for swapping secrets well into the night.

Bamboo furniture is one of our backyard favorites and creates an instantly chic porch…

Perfect for entertaining guests! (And a hint of blue never, ever hurts.)

Thanks so much for sharing your day with us touring this fabulous Southampton home. We hope it’s a great one!

Top Ten: Details for Stylish Living Rooms

Good morning, chic readers! We hope your Monday is off to a great start and that you are poised and ready to tackle this week. We are so excited to share a few of our all-time favorite living rooms–and a few of the features that we think most great living rooms have in common. So take a few minutes, refill your coffee, and reset your mind with these stunning rooms that can’t help but inspire you to a more productive (and comfortable!) day.

A fabulous focal point. In this room, this beautiful fireplace serves as a stunning focal point. We love the antique feel.

2. A chic, well-decorated coffee table. Just take a page from Serena & Lily. They never disappoint.

3. Statement art. Speaking of never disappointing, Andrew Howard certainly doesn’t. His room are always chic, never cookie cutter, and, oh yeah, include truly gorgeous art.

4. Something a little bit unexpected. From the multi-colored floor lamp to the fur chair, this room is anything but expected.

5. Seating for limitless conversation and…

6. A cozy chair just for reading.

7. A little symmetry. Everything doesn’t have to match all the time, but, we have to say, symmetry sure is pleasing to our eyes. This Beth Webb beauty is symmetry at its finest.

8. Loads of personality. Because, at the end of the day, your living room is all about you and your family. From the museum-worthy to the party-ready, Marshall Watson lends every space personality in droves.

This is a living room we wouldn’t mind visiting today. But, for now, we’re going to get back to work and dream about these gorgeous living rooms… What are your living room non-negotiables?

Thanks so much for making Design Chic a part of you day. We always love it when you stop by!

House Tour: The Perfect Blend of Old and New

Lauren DeLoach Interior Design

There is nothing like a home that has the feeling of being collected over time, of having a history, a sense of place and belonging, that idea that it has come from somewhere and has something to say.

At the same time, the ease of a new house is pretty hard to beat. (As people who have spent years redoing their fair share of old homes, we can vouch for this!)

The best of both worlds is that perfect combination of old and new, a feeling and sense of place with the updates and advantages that a new house can offer.

This gorgeous Atlanta home by designer Lauren DeLoach is the right combination of old and new, those touches of history that tell a story and that feeling that everything is fresh.

One of the biggest benefits of new construction is being able to create moments that feel like a family. Like these gorgeous ceilings in the kitchen.

We are all about bedding, and this bedding is absolute perfection! That neck roll is stunning.

Bathrooms are perhaps where we spend the most time agonizing–especially because we’re bath people! This one is a place we’d like to spend a lot of time!

Outdoor spaces are paramount to the way a home feels and lives.

And this one, we think it’s safe to say, feels like paradise!

Thanks so much for making Design Chic a part of your day!

Here’s What’s Next from the Murphy Women:

From internationally bestselling author and “rising star of Southern fiction” (Mary Alice Monroe, New York Times bestselling author) Kristy Woodson Harvey comes the third novel in her Peachtree Bluff series, in which a secret threatens the tight-knit bond between a trio of sisters and their mother.

With the man of her dreams back in her life and all three of her daughters happy, Ansley Murphy should be content. But she can’t help but feel like it’s all a little too good to be true.

Meanwhile, youngest daughter and actress Emerson, who is recently engaged and has just landed the role of a lifetime, seemingly has the world by the tail. Only, something she can’t quite put her finger on is worrying her—and it has nothing to do with her recent health scare.

When two new women arrive in Peachtree Bluff—one who has the potential to wreck Ansley’s happiness and one who could tear Emerson’s world apart—everything is put in perspective. And after secrets that were never meant to be told come to light, the powerful bond between the Murphy sisters and their mother comes crumbling down, testing their devotion to each other and forcing them to evaluate the meaning of family.

With Kristy Woodson Harvey’s signature charm, wit, and heart, The Southern Side of Paradise is another masterful Peachtree Bluff novel that proves she is a “Southern writer with staying power” (Booklist).

In Good Taste: Ohara Davies-Gaetano Interiors

Who doesn’t love a little blue and white? It’s the perfect way to start the day, if you ask us.

If you could use a little inspiration to brighten your Tuesday, look no further. The gorgeously good taste of Ohara Davies-Gaetano Interiors is like a breath of fresh air.

From starkly beautiful kitchens…

To luxuriously elegant baths,

The interiors that this firm orchestrates are almost as spellbinding as the views that lie beyond so many of the windows,

Creating calm, comfortable homes that are ultimately unforgettable.

Just a tiny hint of metallic adds a touch of glamour to this stunning dining room.

It would be hard for the inside to match the splendor of the outdoors beyond, but this bedroom is perfection, the right mix of stately and cozy!

Light floors and floor-to-ceiling windows juxtapose with the dark tones of this kitchen to make it seem airy and open yet refined.

Far from boring cabinets these furniture-like vanities add so much flair to this gorgeous bath.

The right coastal touches give a nudge to the beauty outside the window without an ounce of coastal kitcsh.

So, yeah, we’re book fans. But, even still, we love everything about this bookcase! Sometimes less is more.

When your glass- and serve ware is as stunning as this, open shelving is a must!

Are you loving the work of Ohara Davies-Gaetano as much as we are?
