As a college student, I took 75% of my classes online which meant spending countless hours working on my bed, couch, and kitchen table. Even now I spend most of my time working from home. The more I do this, the more I begin to appreciate designated workspaces. You'd think by now I would have the whole not working at a desk thing down, but I definitely don't. Working on the couch I'm entirely tempted to watch the same re-runs of Teen Mom I've already seen 3 times. If I chose my bed, I immediately want to nap. Lately, I've been really wanting to have a home office.

I think marble has been an obsession of mine for a while. It all started way back when with this Crate & Barrel French butter keeper. My love for everything marble has grown exponentially since then and if something is rose gold, copper, and/or marble, I must own it. 

Home photos dominate my Instagram feed. I'm not sure how many interior and architecture accounts I follow, but there's always a steady stream of perfect photos to look at. Recently I've become obsessed with photos of architecturally modern homes in the snow. It began with this photo and quickly snowballed into a ton of Pinteresting and web browsing.

Everyone knows I have a long running obsession with rose gold. I think if its copper, rose gold, or marble I instantly want it. But there's one shimmery, metallic that everyone can get behind: Gold. I do love gold whether its simple like a sweater or cute like sprinkles on Christmas cookies. Whether it's being worn or just around the house, gold adds a little bit of excitement to everything.

There's a fine line between holiday decorating and looking like your entire house took advantage of a North Pole "everything must go so you bought it all" sale. I'm looking at you, Great Christmas Light Fight (or whatever that show is called). I think my design aesthetic is fairly easy to understand: less is more and quality is far more important than most things. It's no surprise that all of my holiday decor is minimal but chic (and a little bit trendy).

When I hear the word wallpaper I'm immediately drawn to a mental image of the 1970s. Something similar to, say, this? But, in reality, modern wallpaper is actually pretty cool. I've seen it used a bunch on HGTV so my opinion has really turned around. There's even a hilarious episode of Property Brothers where one woman is determined to use the world's busiest wallpaper (at whatever cost) much to the chagrin of both Jonathan and her husband.
