I shared a couple peeks of AKD’s feature in Luxe Magazine (page 260) but today I wanted to share the rest of the project. It was such a fun home. Dressy but still liveable. Colorful but lots of neutrals. And just right the balance of masculine and feminine. As the article title says, its a balance of happy mediums. I am so happy with the way it turned out.

This weekend couldn’t come soon enough. It was a long, long week. I am planning on a lot of relaxation and time in front of the fire, my absolute favorite!

• Nordstrom’s half yearly sale is going on right now and it is seriously dangerous. My list includes: This emerald green faced watch (40% off!!), this oversized plaid cashmere scarf, the perfect fur trimmed army green parka, and these highly recommended Rag & Bone skinnies.
• Absolutely love these gold foil letter press thank you notes I found on Pinterest.
