The Interior Design Rule I Refuse to Break

April 22, 2025 · In: Interior Design

Let’s just say it—I have a type. I try to branch out, I really do. But at the end of the day, this girl knows what she likes: bold, dramatic accessories that stop you in your tracks. I mean, if I have to think about it? Debate it? It’s a no. The right piece has that undeniable energy. You see it, you lock eyes, and it’s basically shouting, “Get in the cart!” Zero hesitation. That’s when you know.

The magic of accessories is real. They can completely transform a space without touching a single piece of furniture. I’ve worked with clients on tight budgets where all we did was style accessories—and when they saw the final result, they were shocked that it was the same room. That’s the power of well-chosen accents.

Here’s the truth: accessories can either blend in and disappear—or they can bring the drama, spark curiosity, and make your space unforgettable. And you know me… I don’t do invisible. Not in my home. Not in my life. If it doesn’t make a statement, I’m moving right along.

So next time you’re shopping, trust the spark. If it makes your heart race a little, that’s your yes. Go big, go bold, and don’t be afraid to let your accessories steal the spotlight.

Guys!!! I’ve never had so much fun putting together my home (& so many of my clients and friends!) This modern cottage style has ended up being the perfect blend that has all the cozy vibes we all crave but still has that modern edge that makes you just say, “whoa! Hey, hey! What is this??! I get to live here??!!!” Yesssss!!!! You can create your dream on any budget! So many of these finds are insanely budget friendly with a few splurges mixed in (because every now and then you need to treat yo self!!) 

Love you guys!!! XxV
