Summer Trips & Winter Shoots

I’m holding onto the memories from this trip for as long as possible. I shared a full recap of our time across the pond earlier this month here. I always come home with loads of inspiration after some time abroad, and the sights on this trip were especially beautiful. Here’s to history, charm, and English gardens!

I love summer for many reasons, but backyard dinners are always a highlight. In this episode of Around the Table, we welcomed Chef Marco to our own backyard to share his culinary expertise. Watch the webisode below to see Chef Marco and Syd create these dishes and get the look for a summer hosting-approved tablescape.

The team and I were back at it this week for another Threshold x Studio McGee collection shoot. Clinging to summer days but here’s a little taste of what’s coming this winter…

Summer sundresses on repeat over here! Here are some of my favorites that have been seeing me through all the long days of the season.

My sister-in-law gifted me this lipstick for my birthday last week and needless to say, I am in love.

I’m a big believer in the notion that interior design is all about telling a story within your home. Vintage pieces have a way of saying “come on in, pull up a chair, take a seat,” creating layered, lived-in spaces wherever they are placed. I love that vintage pieces add soul to a home. The nicks, dings, and grime tell a story that no other piece can tell. Read more about the way vintage pieces inspire design here.

Keep an eye out for the full tour of this stunning project we’ll be sharing soon!
