Dress Your Nest


Over the years I've spent most of my money on pretty clothes and pretty much neglected the decorating of my home. So I live in a mishmash of IKEA, antique finds, and a few really nice pieces when I worked at an amazing home store. Add the clutter of an overindulged toddler and it's a design disaster. I do have one sanctuary from the mess and that is my lovely bed topped with beautiful John Robshaw linens. I first discovered this gorgeous collection when searching for a crib set for Lila that was not your usual cutesy baby bedding. I took one look at the Kashmir set and promptly fell in love. (It was beautiful and Lila slept her crib maybe, oh, once !? But that's a whole other blog topic) The quilts are the perfect weight, the blockprinted sheets a great pop of color. A bit of an indulgence but when you spend as much time in bed as you do with a baby then totally worth it! I say skimp on the furniture as there are plenty of great IKEA and West Elm options and go luxe with your accessories. It's the home equivalent of h and m with and hermes scarf and louboutin flats!
Sweet dreams...Xoxo Michelle
