House Tour: Charming in Corona Del Mar

Good morning, chic readers! We hope you loved the good taste of Kelly Nutt yesterday as much as we did!

With statement lighting…

Wood accents…

And charm galore…

There is so much to love about Kelly Nutt Design.

This house in Corona Del Mar is absolutely ideal for spending a relaxing vacation, a laid-back spring break or for cool, comfortable living all year round.

A study in simplicity with just the right amount of detail to keep things interesting, this is the kind of home that feels like a serene oasis.

Pretty pink accents create a calming and sweet retreat for catching up on rest.

And plenty of hidden storage creates a soothing, monochromatic palette for the eye where clutter is hidden away.

A fun pattern on the floor stands out against an all-white bath for a uniform look that still packs a punch.

Even the laundry room is fabulous! We don’t know about you, but we could move right into this gorgeous Corona Del Mar home–and would love to be weekend guests! What about you?

Thanks so much for making Design Chic a part of your day and Happy Valentine’s Day!

Resolving to read more this year? Pick up your copy of Slightly South of Simple, the first novel in my Peachtree Bluff series, and preorder book 2, The Secret to Southern Charm, releasing April 3! I’m so grateful for the support of my readers!

Last week we had the pleasure of spending a fun-filled long weekend in the place that we think gets as close to Christmas magic as you can without going to the North Pole: NYC! I had the most amazing day of meetings with the team at Gallery Books (Simon & Schuster) about all that is THE SECRET TO SOUTHERN CHARM, the sequel to SLIGHTLY SOUTH OF SIMPLE and the second book in Peachtree Bluff series–and filmed fun videos that I can’t wait to share with you! To celebrate the upcoming launch (April 3, 2018!) and get you in the holiday spirit, we’re giving away a $100 Amazon gift card for your holiday essentials. Enter below!

Pinterest-worthy. That’s what we’d say about Marshall Watson Interior Design.

With all the choices of things to pin out there these days, that’s a pretty high compliment.

But these gorgeous rooms and outdoor spaces by these user-talented designers are ones we want to remember, take inspiration from and come back to again and again.

If we weren’t already having Spring fever (which we are, big time…) then this porch would certainly inspire it. From the lush landscape to the beautiful touches, every element is utter perfection.

These banana leaf chairs are some of our favorites! In fact, we have them in the Beaufort playroom!

Dining al fresco has never looked so good. Sunflowers add a cheerful burst of color.

Dark furniture and warm tones make this light-filled room feel super cozy.

Soft colors and comfortable textures combine here to create a room that is both comfortable and chic.

We just love the feel of this beautiful home!

This is the kind of space where we would like to be dining tonight–or any night. A beautiful vision, perfectly conceived… Well, we’d say that’s what Marshall Watson Interiors is all about!
