Holiday Decor Guide, Part One: My Room

Ok, I admit I'm a bit late on decorating for the holidays. Traveling and working 12 hours a day has left me too exhausted and overwhelmed to decorate my own home. Thankfully to my rescue, T.J. Maxx/Marshalls had everything I needed to put me in the Holiday spirit. On one trip, I filled up my entire cart and was pleasantly shocked to hear my total was less than half of what I was expecting to pay.

Here pictured are just a portion of what I walked out from T.J. Maxx/Marshalls. For those who haven't decorated for the holidays and are in need of an inspiration, hope this post helped you and let me know what holiday objects you've scored from T.J. Maxx/Marshalls!

An Organic Christmas

Although I'm a lover of sparkly and colorful things, something about the all natural and earthy Christmas decor is so soothing and cozy.

As soon as I'm back home, I'll be on a hunt for a nice Christmas tree.

Gramercy Park Townhouse

My absolutely favorite section of New York Social Diary is their House section where they feature fabulous and eclectic homes of different New Yorkers. This beautiful townhouse belongs to Sarah Story. Her and her husband bought up several apartments within the house and combined some of them so it's quite interesting to see how one space transitions onto another!

Inside Hana Soukupova's Manhattan Apartment

Designed by Mark Cunningham, Hana Soukupova's abode that she shares with her husband is one of the sexiest yet luxurious homes I've ever seen. It's definitely on the more masculine side with the exception of the bathroom, but I love all the sleek furniture, colorful pop art and overflowing books.

J.Crew's Jenna Lyon's Townhome

I'm pretty sure most of you have seen Jenna Lyon's home featured in various magazines but if you're like me, you'll never be sick of seeing this gorgeous home. Designed by Levenson Architects, her townhome is currently up for sale for $3.75 Mil.

Home Studio, High vs. Low

One of my favorite part of my job as an interior designer is when I score a great item for less, especially at antique marts, flea markets or even at discount stores. I recently scored an amazing faux fur throw for my little home office which is sloooowing coming along together (pictures to come very soon)

I love the rustic charm of the home studio pictured above but can you guess which one cost $14,651 and which one cost $4,801?

Industrial Work Spaces

Something about old sturdy furniture and used tools make a workspace seem so attractive.. kind of like the way hard working men look so hot.

APT with LSD: Devon Radziwill

I love how vibrant and modern Devon Radziwill's Soho loft is. Her coffee table is made up of four sectionals pushed together and the colorful glass cups are from the Dior boutique. How pretty!
