Katie Rosenfeld in Traditional Home

Shalom my sweets. You know me lately, you see me and then you don't. I have been traveling and working my tail off. I can promise you this, once we are in mid May, you will be seeing me a lot more regularly. This I promise you. So while on my way home from my bestie Sam's wedding this weekend, I stumbled upon the newest Traditional Home magazine. I was immediately glued to the colorful and whimsical design that Katie Rosenfeld had so effortlessly designed. Pattern, texture and color galore. As we know, nothing warms my heart more. Just try and tell me this house doesn't steal the show.

Monday Musings: Real men let their ladies decorate in pink

Hey ladies! Vat's up? I have missed you so. Admittedly, this is the worst time of the year in my real J-O-B. I can assure you, you don't want to hear all of the gory details but let's just say 13 hour days are being had. Between my work schedule and my newest addiction of Candy Mania (I know. Embarrassing), my time is limited. Help me (insert sheepish voice). That being said, stick with me gang. I will be back in the full swing of things in no time. Until then, enjoy my sporadic and unpredictable posting. 

So in addition to my crazy work schedule, I still have about 3 design clients happening right at this moment. No fears ladies, that is actually my stress relief. What is not my stress relief are the men in the client equation. No offense. Boys. Do you really and truly hate pink? Or are you just trying to make my life difficult? Resist the resistance. I currently have a client, who is beyond fabulous, and when we met for our consult, her husband was maybe the coolest client I have encountered. Our conversation went a little like this:

Me: "So do you have any design boundaries?"

Him: "Whatever my wife wants." 

My inner dialogue: "Where in the hell has this design client been all of my life?"

Me: "What if your wife wants pink and we also nix the ceiling fan?" 

Him: "Pink I can live with. Lack of ceiling fan? I cannot. Don't push your luck."

We can't win them all ladies. But if I am going to win one, it is going to be that pop of pink.  As the saying goes, real men let their ladies decorate in pink. I know you thought it was "real men wear pink," but it's not.

Shop 219 Worlds Away Barcart Giveaway

Ladies, ladies, ladies. My sincerest apologies for the radio silence but I have been globetrotting, K? Can we forgive and forget? Well if you are having trouble granting impunity, insert shop 219. So I use this shop often for my clients because they have THE most unique pieces on the worldwide interweb. AND I happen to adore the shop's owner, Christine. She is such a boss.

No it's not April Fools and no I am not playing a cruel prank (although I would like to). One lucky S+S reader can choose one of the following chic barcarts in either a gold or silver finish.

Where I be...

Hi lovelies. Sorry I have been as MIA as MIA lately, but the girl has been traveling. I will be back. But in the meantime, I am airing out my dirty laundry over with Elizabeth at Little Black Door. I am sharing all of my beauty secrets and I mean ALL. 

I am jet setting off to Vegas for my bestie Sam's bachelerotte party. Follow along on insta for ridiculous updates. Have a wonderful weekend. Love you. Absolutely mean it. XOXO

Valentines Most Wanted

Happy Friday y'all. Seriously. We survived the blizzard here (10 inches by the by) and now I am ready for the weekend. Lucky us they are predicting more snow. Gag. So let's talk about something fun and festive that is on the horizon, Valentine's Day. I have to tell you, I am not a huge fan of this holiday. It is quite forced and Hallmark but I will indulge you. And there is no love that I would rather spend my Valentine's with than y'all! You know that. But just in case you out there are wondering what is on my mind for Valentine's Day, here she is.

Kourtney Kardashian's Home

Ok so I have the guiltiest of pleasures to admit. And honestly to confess, I feel like I need the iPhone emoticon with the monkey with his hands over his eyes to illustrate my embarrassment. Truly. Ok. Here it goes. My name is Lindsay Dress and I watch "Keeping Up with the Kardashians." There. Happy? If you are as guilty in this as I am, you will know that there is some pretty major interior design happening on the show, which is totally why I watch it...(insert awkward silence)

Finally someone put Kourtney Kardashian's home in InStyle, so all of you non show watchers (good for you) can get a glimpse of the super glam aesthetic she is putting off. Her home is designed by the amazing Jeff Andrews, who is now my newest design crush. And honestly, I never thought I would love black and white SO much. Dear Jeff,  honey, baby love; you make classic black and white look edgy and new age. Seriously. Prepare to drool over the series of pictures. You are welcome. 

My favorites from Waiting on Martha

So we are essentially snowed in here. The entire city was closed down yesterday and of course I cannot even take one day of working from home or being trapped. Bitch be stir crazy.

If no, get it together people. Waiting on Martha has the punchiest home decor and gifts happening at this very moment. ANNNNNDDD they are offering 15% off of your entire order for S+S readers only!

Punchy Decor Budget Buys

My darling little snow bunnies. Vat's up? So we are under a little thing called a "winter weather advisory" in these parts. I am talking, there is nothing on the ground but grand predictions about a Snowmageddon headed our way, so everyone has closed down EVERYTHING. I am talking errrthang. Where were these type of events when I was growing up? School closed off of a prediction and not actually the event of snow. Seriously rude.

So to counteract this ridiculously gloomy, frigid and bleh weather, I am talking punchy decor. Bright, light and airy, folks. I mean my house is full of color galore, and I really feel like each and every room really should have some sort of pop of color. Enter Adore Magazine. I recently came across their September edition (I know get my head out of the sand) and it was just what the doctor ordered by way of decor. Fun, bright, unique and eclectic. Truly folks, one colorful statement piece can go a long way. 

So I figure out I need to practice a little bit of what I preach. Let's get our punch decor budget buy on.

Get the Look

Loveliest of ladies! How was your weekend? What's that you say? Never long enough? Amen to that. So before we get started, major thoughts and love to Stella today would be great. She has to get surgery today on her poor ear for the second time due to her getting in a dog fight. The poor thing wants to scrap, but she just can't. She is writing checks that she can't cash if you catch my drift.

Sooooo. Let's talk about this lovely little image that I came across below. So it is in the home of none other than Whitney Port. If you do not know who that is, you had more of a life than I did about 8 years ago when "The Hills" was on the air. She was on the cast of should have been Emmy nominated series. (Seriously people. Worst show to ever air on television.) Anyhow, the good thing that transpired out of that show was Whitney's unapologetically cool style. I mean check it out. Even her home is super chic.

I mean who cannot love that little vignette? So much that we just HAVE to get the look. Amirite ladies? Let's do this.
