With the beginning of a new year often brings the beginnings of something new. I wouldn't have thought that my 2010 would have started with an unexpected bang, but it did and I find myself in unchartered territory. The good news, change is usually a good thing and because I have grown as a person and have managed to develop and maintain my own style both personally and in my home, I will embrace the change that 2010 has brought my way and work towards a brighter and better tomorrow. With that in mind, I'd like to give a nod to Stephanie Bradshaw of Bradshaw Styling. Her newsletter Girl About Town arrived in my inbox this morning with a few things I not only agree with, but would love to share.
Stephanie Says: Five Things I Know For Sure
- Dress your home much like you would dress yourself. Think about what colors you like to wear and you'll have a great start to your interior palette. Be yourself.
- Like your personal style, the best interiors evolve over time. Be patient.
- Parties aren't just for the weekend. Inviting the neighbors over mid-week is fun and can help break up your weekday routine. Be unpredictable.
- Overaccessorizing can spoil any great outfit or any great room. Remember to take one thing off or put one thing away. Too much can simply be too much.
- Love and laughter are the best tools for your personal style and decorating. Be inspired.
Cheers to the New Year ahead!
