Friday Favorites

Happy Friday Everyone!! Another week down and soon to be another month, where does the time go?!

It's about 100 degrees in Wilmington and it's only going to get hotter this weekend so the majority of my time will be spent indoors with the a/c kicking or at the movies! Anyways as always here are a few of my favorites from this past week...with a few extra's thrown in just for the Fourth of July.

Thursday Thinkings...

It wouldn't be Thursday without some motivational thoughts to help carry you over to Friday and bring you one day closer to the weekend!

 

Currently Coveting: Brights, Bolds and Basics

I decided to go in a fashion design direction today as opposed to my normal interior/architectural posts.
Let's face it fashion design is just as amazing as interior design so I didn't think you would be too upset!
As you could tell from yesterday's post bright colors are everywhere this season and in case I haven't said it enough I LOVE it.
Below are some pieces that I currently wish I owned and will hopefully help to incorporate some color into your summer wardrobe!

Shorts/ Necklace/ Bracelet/ Earrings/
Button Down Shirt/ Dress/ Peplum Top

Design | Be Daring, Use Neon Colors

This season is all about the neon and I have to say I fully support it! Whether it be in small doses like the hot pink desk or the amazingly colored Fifi chairs that can be seen below. Or in large doses like the outfit from Fash Boulevard or the lululemon top, neon is definitely on the up and up!

What are your thoughts on neon colors??

Design | Beach Beauty

It's pretty rare that I post two times in one day but Tracery Interiors has me pretty weak in the knees!

It is my ultimate dream to have a beach house where I can wake up in the morning, step out on my balcony and enjoy a cup of coffee while staring at the ocean. 

In my 25 years I've managed to get as far as living a mere hop, skip and a jump away from the beach.

 I'm more then halfway there!

 These pictures are the perfect combination of an open, yet modern, light, crisp and beachy feel. The perfect inspiration to add to my future beach house dreams.

Have a Happy, Happy Monday everyone!

Currently Coveting: Amazing Interiors

My dad sent me an e-mail the other day with a link to all of these amazing interior spaces! Each one is so unique that I think I instantly fell in love with all of them. 

However, I was able to pick some of my top choices for your viewing pleasure :)

I just wish there was a way I could combine all of them without looking like I live in a madhouse!

Enjoy!

Obsessed with the giant red wall

I love the simplicity of the room mixed with the staircase design

It doesn't get any better then exposed brick walls!

Who wouldn't want a staircase made of legos?!?!

Friday is finally here! After a long week of work there's nothing I want to do more then relax, hang out with friends, go to outdoor concerts, sip some wine on my back porch, and enjoy some good food!

Thursday Thinkings...

One day closer to Friday! So from me to you today...a little dose of motivation to help you get through the rest of your week! 

Design | Home Office Haven

When you work from home, you get to design your own workspace and make it yours. Unfortunately I don't have the pleasure of working from home just yet, but a girl can dream! 

Each one of the offices below has a little something to offer: whether it be great storage options, hardwood floors, stark white beauty, or a large window for those daydreaming breaks. Other ideas include a patterned rug to liven up the work space, wallpaper in bookshelves (my obsession continues), a large bulletin board and various pop's of color!

What does your dream home office look like?!

Design | Passionate about Patterns

I am super excited about some wallpaper today? Who gets excited about wallpaper? I do, especially when they look like some of the ones below! They are stunning and just add a little something more to the room!
 I mean why not put the paint brush down and dare to be different?!

Slightly obsessed with the contrast between the stark white dishes and the pattern

Never been a big stripes fan but come on this is AMAZING

I love the idea of using wallpaper on the ceiling to draw your eyes upwards

Admit it, you're obsessed with patterned wallpaper now too??
