market monday | 50 Shades of Gray
in Interiors, Holiday, Market Finds, Vacation, Projects
Shameful Embarassing Admission: I used to watch Gossip Girl. One evening, while viewing my guilty pleasure I kept noticing the infamous Prada Marfa print. I was intrigued and put all search engines to use. I found Dallas's own Gray Malin two years ago and am still impressed with his work. His prints are a visual vacation that I can't wait to have grace one of my walls!! Enjoy the week. Xx AR

market monday | color the neutral bold
Color the neutral bold. I am a creature of habit. So, what happens when a creature of habit starts to design a space? Everything turns out white. With my last space, this was intentional with monochromatic linens and a variety of soft light textures. Literally, when I finished the house…. I was bored and wanted color. I have self diagnosed, design attention defect disorder. Once I finish a room, it needs to be redone (not literally but the wheel never stops turning). I am laying out a guide I hope many of you may find helpful when staring with a neutral space and incorporating color. Im using the wise words of my mother, "Alyssa, always stick to the timeless classics because trends are fleeting". This applies to almost everything, including men (just kidding and seeing if anyone reads this :) Xx -AR
