Get the Look:


I wore this original look to a Kentucky Derby party so it was very feminine. The florals, pastels, and graphic black and white stripes really played up the preppy girly girl look. SO this room had to scream ladylike luxe. I wanted to daringly mix floral and stripe patterns to make the room pop, with gold accents to keep it "feminine luxe." That linen pastel couch is my favorite part of this room, however. Who wouldn't want to curl up on that with a blanket and journal? Lastly, I love the little cheeky nod to the Kentucky Derby with the horse book ends. Style these either on a bookshelf, fire place mantel, or even on a coffee table on their own as an alternative small statue. When a room is this girly I think it's important to have some balance with something unexpected or anchor it with a dark neutral (like black here). What do you think?
