NEW SERIES: FRIENDS WITH STYLE!

Calvin Klein jacket (similar) // J.Crew shirt // Swiss Army watch

Ralph Lauren chinos // Braided belt from Argentina (similar) // J.Crew desert boots

How cute is my friend Eddy? He's been my right hand man at Design Darling for a couple months now and when he showed up in this get-up earlier in the week I knew it was time for a new series on the blog. I can't wait to rope in a few more friends and keep the outfit posts coming! In the mean time, let's note everything Eddy's doing right: you can't go wrong with blue on blue, every guy should own these pants in every color, and desert boots are possibly the most versatile shoe offering since the equally beloved boat shoe. Bravo, my friend! Next up, my cousin and partner-in-crime, Emily. I hope you enjoy! :)

GALLERY WALL

Kerry Steele painting // Leigh Viner photograph // Quaillane Press map
Elizabeth Mayville print // Sugar Paper print
Linda Hunt painting // Note To Self print // Vahram Muratyan print

One of the projects I'm most excited to tackle in my apartment is assembling a gallery wall next to my desk. My friend Amy has the most beautiful little vignettes in her apartment (catch a glimpse here) and totally inspired me to start covering my bare walls with new prints, old maps, and random keepsakes. Anything you're coveting for your walls at the moment? Do share!

APARTMENT UPDATES

{Euro Style lamp, Design Darling topiary (back in stock!), Diptyque candle}

{Jane Austen Penguin classics}

{Keeping my shoes away from Rory ;) Cole Haan loafers, Kate Spade heels, Elizabeth & James booties; Design Darling gingham tray and Ikea dresser}

I've crossed a few things off the apartment to do list but it's definitely still a work in progress! I'll continue to share bits and pieces on Instagram until it's ready to be photographed. How long did it take for you to make your first place feel like home? Tell me I'm not crazy for taking a few months to make everything just right ;)
