weekend decorating {target style}

Target is happening. I mean every time I turn around there is something new. The other day I stopped in for toilet paper and walked out actually considering large furniture purposes.

Collaborations with Nate Berkus, Safavieh & Threshold now put Target in the running for leading home decor looks. I've found a few things I am wanting for my apartment asap.

Gold flatware is everything & hammered makes it better. How great would these look on a big black table?

These chairs are perfect for a patio. & throw these yellow and white striped cushions on top and you've got instant style.

This Safavieh for Target exclusive chair is everything. Must get one of these.

A black floorlamp like this is pretty much perfection

This gold table is just so rich and sophisticated, I can't believe its at Target. Well done!

In the summer, when the AC is going, you gotta have a soft chenille throw.

Design ideas: Black trim, white walls...

I'm currently working on one of my favorite homes I have ever worked on, its so uniquely shaped and for a newer home it has a style that is so unique {hello. keep austin weird}! I'm having a tough time working around some poor design choices, like the color of the trim. It's currently a muddy beige color and its just wrong. I've been researching my options for color for trim instead of just splashing it with white. So I'm seeing how I feel about black trim, light walls.

It's very 'Brooklyn townhouse', which I think all of these photos are from NY. I love that vibe & they say Austin is the TX version of Brooklyn so, I'm thinking we've got to bring some of that style down here.
