This giveaway is closed. Congrats on winning, @JuliaGoodwinDesign! I’m always excited to find women doing great things. So when Marta, the self-taught pattern designer behind Made of Cloth emailed asking if I’d want to feature one of her pillows in my home, it was an easy yes. And I was …

There's a new neutral in my life. And while it's not a new trend, it's something I've gotten really into this year. It's also technically a color, yet it pretty much goes with everything.

When my home tour went up a few weeks ago, I linked to everything. But today I’m sharing 12 of my favorite interior items–from seating and tables to sheets and art. And I’m going to talk a little bit about each one, and why I love them as much as I do. …

When Farrow & Ball reached out to ask if I'd co-host the opening of their new Chicago showroom, my answer was an immediate (and probably over-excited) yes. As you probably know, interiors are my thing, and I love their paint, so much that I used Farrow & Ball's Cornforth White in my Lincoln …

I recreated my 1st living room a few weeks ago, so now it’s on to my first little office (circa 2010). My desk was wedged in a small space between my kitchen and living room in my tiny River North apartment. See below. This workspace was very simple, but I …

One of my close friends has been expecting a baby girl and when she asked for some help choosing items for the nursery, I did what any good friend who loves design would do and put this together for her. She wanted something cozy and neutral, and I had so much …

I’m just a few weeks away from shooting my home for The Everygirl, and while my place looks and feels mostly done, there’s a big difference between a room that looks complete and one that’s ready for a photoshoot. And while this might sound ridiculous to some (if you’re one of those …

When I first moved to Chicago back in August 2011, I rented a tiny one-bedroom downtown. While the new high-rise building was a lot more modern than what I hoped for, I loved my first cozy little space, and have been thinking about it since my new white sofa will …
