Home Favorites

Happy Monday, y’all! Looking to make a few quick, and instantly gratifying refreshes around your home?!? Today, we thought it’d be fun to round up all the pieces (rugs, lighting, pillows, and art) we’re currently crushing on! Take a peek at some of our favorite finds below!

Our secret to making a space feel cozy?!? Lighting is key! You’ll find a table lamp on nearly every surface in our house because there’s nothing we love more than soft lighting to brighten up a space! Some of our go to table lamps are this, this, this and this (we also love to swap out plain white shades with a pretty pleated option like this or this). And, if you’re looking to install a few overhead lights we love this, this, this and this.

There’s truly nothing more impactful than a bright pop of color on a crisp white wall, or an interesting patterned piece placed on wallpaper… which is why we love art for its transformative power in a room! Right now, we’re loving this, this, this and this. You can shop all our art favorites here!

The simplest way to introduce of pattern, texture, and color to a room?!? Pillows (especially when you dare to mix and match prints and palettes)! Curious about our favorites?!? Check out this, this, this and this. Don’t forget you can shop all our pillow favorites here!

Looking for that “perfect piece” to complete a room?!?! It usually ends up being a rug! Our favorites? We love this navy border natural jute rug, this geometric flat weave, this hand knotted denim rug, and this striped rug! And we can’t forget to mention our go-to natural jute rug (snap up an 8x10 for under $200)! Friendly reminder that you can shop all our go to rugs here. Be sure to browse more of our home favorites above!

Happy shopping, y’all!

Happy Summer Solstice, y’all! There is nothing we enjoy more than spending time outdoors, so we are looking forward to spending the longest day of the year in the sun! Since we are planning on spending much more time at home this season, we have been working hard to perfect our outdoor living and entertaining spaces. It’s no secret we love an alfresco dinner party or happy hour on the patio, so we have created smaller, more intimate gathering areas in both our front and backyard that make each experience unique. From our favorite chaise lounge chairs and matching umbrella in the front yard, to the happiest beach towels ( a must-have for the beach, pool, or sunbathing in the backyard!), to this stunning wicker collection, soon to be featured in our folly, to the playful prints on our outdoor pillows and rugs, we adore all of our Serena and Lily finds and the way they tie each space together. Whether you’re looking to start an outdoor project from the beginning or add the finishing touches or updates to your space, Serena and Lily is the perfect place to shop for all of your patio and backyard needs. Check out all of our favorite outdoor pieces from the classic home retailer below! Happy shopping, ya’ll!

Our Start to a Stylish Summer

Howdy y’all and happy Wednesday!! Can you believe that summer is here?! If you’re anything like us, we have been spending as much time outside as possible, so we are loving this warm, sunny weather! Being from Florida, we adore any chance we get to spend time in the sun and by the water, making summer our favorite season. Although we are now in Nashville without an ocean nearby, we still love curating a wardrobe that’s perfect for summers spent in the South in our backyard or by a pool! (We’re also crossing our fingers we will find our way to a beach soon!) As y’all know, MyTheresa is our favorite spot to find luxury investment pieces for any time of year, but we are especially loving the vacation edit currently featured on their site! From breezy caftans, to structural swimsuits, to staple sandals, we are loving everything about this collection!

If you recall from our last MyTheresa blog, we had just snapped up this adorable ruffle sleeve blouse by one of our all time favorite designers, Ulla Jonson. And after falling in love with these bright colors and the bold print, we couldn’t resist grabbing the matching skirt! We love how it can be worn as a matching set, paired with a simple white blouse, or used as a swimsuit coverup. It’s so fun finding pieces that are versatile, so for us, this skirt was a major score! Our closet is very much a mix of high and low, so when we do decide to splurge on a new find, we always make sure it’s a piece that will get its wear! Other great investment pieces we are loving include this airy cotton midi that can be worn loose as a coverup or belted as a casual summer dress, this bold floral maxi skirt paired with the matching top or with a basic solid blouse, and this chic, silk rose scarf that can be tied in our hair, on a purse, or around the neck!

We believe a pair of quality sunglasses are a must in every accessory line up, and our go-to’s are these amazing Celine shades. They are one of our favorite splurges and the best accessory to have year round, not just during the warmer months! Curious about some of our other favorite luxury brands for the summer? We adore Rhode and it’s relaxed, cotton silhouettes, Zimmermann and all of it’s magical florals prints and pastels hues, and Johanna Ortiz if we are looking for an island inspired statement piece. Check out all of our favorites MyTheresa find below. Happy shopping, y’all!
