I’m almost never not in a dress (or jumpsuit) in the fall. Even when the temps dip (you better believe I have leggings and a tank under this dress) its my favorite thing because you throw on one piece and done. Usually a hat too but Rupe told me I shouldn’t wear a hat for […]
While I have been dreaming of getting away to my favorite LA hotel, The Santa Monica Proper, I guess the next best thing is sharing how to get the look at home. I was here just days before lockdown in March in this Kelly Wearstler designed wonderland. If I had her design my home, it […]
The 4th of July is this weekend and since a ton of people around us are still not wearing a mask (mind blown emoji), I will happily stay at home. I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite picks from my go to online shopping sites in case you’re in the mood to spruce up […]
The wait is over! Our new “Quarterline” fronts for SemiHandmade are live, you can order them and samples now! I shared our downstairs kitchen yesterday, so if you missed that… hop here to see the first Quarterline install, and today, in honor of the launch, I wanted to share one of my favorite ways I’ve […]

I have yet to photograph the #samuelfamilyfixer for myself and to show you guys the full tour (but this image from the shoot for Domino Magazine is still giving me life, as are the nightly baths right in this spot), so in the meantime I wanted to give you a look into what my non […]
I took the holidays properly off for the first time in hmm, I don’t know how many years, but after the year and a half of moving and renovating and moving again and again, and momming and working… the holidays lined up with the perfect time to take a minute to settle into the newly […]
I pinch myself every day that, A, we have a finished kitchen, but even more so, B, that it is bright and open (goodbye wall) and feels like a beautiful part of the home instead of just a utilitarian space (with a big thanks to Café Appliances coming in with the matte white finish and […]
