As a designer, writer, and entrepreneur, I’m obsessed with anything that is luxury, unique, or glamorous! I have a keen eye for style and love sharing all my ideas, muses, and projects with the rest of the design world! I love to travel along with Sophie, my mini Schnauzer whom I take on all my great adventures.

Suzy’s Interview and Feature in Bella Magazine
I was recently given the unique opportunity to be featured in the gorgeous start up mag, Bella Magazine. If you haven’t seen the last issue of Bella Magazine, you can catch it on Issuu. I did a quick interview a long with some photos, and they even did a “style stalker” page so readers can learn how to get my look – how sweet! The photos are very similar to when I was featured in Abode magazine, and I believe this is the last home feature I will be doing in a while – so enjoy! Now it’s time to switch up my decor and find a whole new look, stay tuned!

DIY Friday: Make Your Own Designer Chair! West Elm’s Overlapping Squares
I’ve blogged about this funky chair previously on Better Decorating Bible, and received a lot of e-mails on where to buy and how to decorate with it. It looks like the chair is actually discontinued at West Elm as well as the chic daybed with overlapping squares they produced before. Luckily I found an easy DIY you can do at home to make your own dining chairs! I believe they retailed for around $200 before, so let’s give cheers to a budget friendly weekend! Keep reading for full instructions!

How to: Decorating with French Toile Patterns
French country is the ultimate design style for a relaxing and homey lifestyle. Vivid toile prints complete this look and attract the eye with their busy designs and patterns. A lot of people want to try out this look but are afraid of over-doing the toile theme. Over-decorating with this chic pattern isn’t that difficult since a small hint makes a huge impact. Make sure to stick to some of these simple tricks in order to get the look just right:
Focus – too much toile equals a visual overload. Focus on a few details like an accent pillow, window treatment, or a standout arm chair.
Combine – Simple geometric patterns like stripes, checks, and solids pair well with toile. Group no more than two color families together.
Wicker – For a natural look combine wicker or straw seating with comfortable leather furniture. Choose natural brown leathers with blue-patterned toile for the ultimate French country lifestyle.
Accessorize – Decorate like the French do with simple white porcelain pots and vases placed on a mantel or shelf.
