Repeated themes in fashion and interiors is not a new notion. What walks long legged on the runways of Paris often end up as inspiration for bedding, drapery, rugs and home accessories.

What I like to wear is reflective of how I design my own NY pad. For me, it’s gotta be:
1. Fun & Flirty
2. Bad Ass
3. Full of heart

Here are some thoughts on the hot topics in fashion that crossover to the home -with a nod to nature.

A wave inspired couch from Anthropologie is curvy and curious. Even the name toys with the past, instead of Louis it’s Louisa. Love it! This wave dress by Kirribilla makes it all come full circle.

I know, I know… we all love nature, we all want to save the planet, but have we taken this “tree” and “bird” them a little too far? Truth be told, I can’t get enough of it. It’s for girls, boys, men, women, and even Courtney Cox. Plus these mod tree wall decals are way to fab to knock down (yikes!) They’re everywhere, I know, but… a city girl needs a little reminder that a tree does grow in Brooklyn.

Courtney Cox loves birds??

Real Men Wear Birds

Sticking with the nature theme but from a different angle, contrasting contemporary florals are still where it’s at. Especially for summer – it’s the saturated color themes that make me happy. These Orange Piel custom printed window shades I found can make any room feel fun (some are quite literally fashion inspired like the corset imagery). But color and contrast works wonders for a girl’s complexion.
