You guys know I’m slightly obsessed with Gray Malin (as seen here and here) + beachy prints in general. They are such a great way to inspire wanderlust all year long and they have the ability to make a statement in just about any room in your home.

Today Gray Malin launched his latest collection showcasing the beautiful beaches of St. Barths. I’m thinking I need to add one of these beauties to my seaside inspired gallery wall (I instagrammed it here in case you forgot what it looks like!!!). Anywho… my top pick out of Gray Malin’s St. Barths collection has to be the Paddle Surfer photograph – doesn’t the crystal blue water make you just want to jump in?! You can take a peek at the entire St. Barths collection here. Enjoy! Xo. Lauren

What To Buy At Target Right Now
1

 

You know I love a good Tar-get run. I unfortunately don’t get to go as much living in New York so the only time I really make it back there is when I’m at home in Ohio or when I’m in Stamford, CT. Anywho, I stopped by the other weekend when I was back at home with my mom and their latest collection is ON POINT. The new mid-century collection has to be my favorite to-date and there are also a couple of cute pieces from the Oh Joy collection that I loved including this “You’re Okay” print. My number one pick as to what you should buy right now at Target has to be this bamboo bar cart. Hello, it’s only $129 dollars!!! I also love this weave lounge chair – style it with a sheepskin rug (I have this one) and a fun pillow. Easy peasy. Have a great Monday, friends!! Xo. Lauren

I went to Boston for this first time this previous October. I was excited to visit as all of my friends have raved about Boston. The small, charming city lived up to everything my friends said it would be with the neighborhood of Beacon Hill being no exception. I loved walking up and down the rolling hills full of historic brownstones. New York, of course, is also full beautiful brownstones in many neighborhoods but for whatever reason, they’re just not as charming as the ones found throughout Beacon Hill.

I came across Nina Farmer’s sophisticated brown stone in Beacon Hill on One King’s Lanes blog this morning and had to share. Nina and her family originally settled on the top floor of this town home, before buying the entire home when the family downstairs eventually moved out. Nina gutted and renovated the entire space, combining rooms to build the kitchen, keeping the historic molds and casings, and reinventing this space to feel fresh and modern. The kitchen, bedroom and closet have to be my favorite rooms in the home. Be sure to check out the entire feature on One Kings Lane and you can shop the post below. Happy Thursday! Xo. Lauren

Nailing kid-proof but adult friendly aesthetic can difficult. Designer Emillie Munroe killed it when designing this Northern California family abode. I came across this home tour on Lonny and had to share. Since a lot of my friends are starting to have kids now, we always have this conversation. A home has to be both for you and your kids. Of course every home should be functional and work for everyone, but that doesn’t mean you should lose your sense of style! The family room and the kids room are two of my favorite spaces in this house – love the checkered surf board and palm tree wallpaper! What do you think? Do you have kids? And how do you not lose your sense of style? Happy Leap Day, friends!! Xo. Lauren
