If the brief was to match your dog and your house to your favorite outfit, then Amanda Shadforth, the incredibly talented photographer, stylist, and creative director behind the popular, Oracle Fox blog, has definitely nailed it. Her laid back chic style is evident throughout every nook and cranny of her Melbourne home and her closet alone is so jaw dropping that you might need a reminder to close it before a little birdie lands on it. (Was my mom the only one to warn me of this terrifying outcome for a wide opened mouth? Let’s hope so for your sake.)
Whether you need a drool cloth or not, I think you will find this home very inspiring, but definitely don’t just look at the photos and either love them or hate them. Really take minute and think through whether your home (and your dog!) match your clothes… and do all of these represent who you are?
What do you think? Should your dog match your house?
