Living With Great Style

Outtakes: Style Me Pretty Living

Today I’m thrilled to share our apartment on Style Me Pretty Living and an interview! It hasn’t been featured since last fall and we’ve updated a few things. We added a new Serena & Lily headboard, a pair of vintage leather chairs in the bay window, and a piece of artwork by Jennifer Ament above our sofa. On this shoot I had the pleasure of working with the ever so talented Bess Friday. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity to work with her and this seemed like the perfect occasion. Working with her for a day was a dream – her eye for photographs is amazing.

Hop on over to read the interview and when you’re done check out the brand new Style Me Pretty Living – it just launched in mid-March and its chalked full of inspiring interiors. A huge thanks to the SMP ladies for featuring me today!

Bae Home & Design Giveaway


Our neighborhood is full of amazing small boutiques – one of the many reasons we have never moved. Over the past seven years I’ve been able to build relationships with the small business owners of many of the shops – even if it’s a quick wave as I’m walking by. So when Bae Home & Design (one of my favorite shops on the street) contacted me about doing a giveaway for my readers I jumped at the chance. I love sharing my secret resources with all of you.

Bae Home & Design is on the corner Sacramento and Baker. It’s filled with affordable smalls to spruce up any space in your home and also has beautiful furniture that I absolutely adore. It’s actually one of my go-to spots for gifts when I’m in a time crunch because I know that I’ll be able to find something there that suits all of my friends – plus who doesn’t love a little something for their home?

Today, Bae Home & Design is giving away a $75 gift certificate to a lucky reader! Believe me friends, there are some amazing things you’ll be able to get with this certificate. I’m in love with their array of design books, vases, stunning pillow collections and not to mention if you love trays (like myself), they have some that will make your heart beat very fast.


To enter, all you need to do is:


  • * Comment below about what you would get over on Bae Home & Design if you won. Pop on over to take a look here.

  • * Be sure to follow Sacramento Street.

  • * And pop over to Bae Home & Design’s facebook page and ‘like’ them and also follow them on twitter.

A lucky winner will be chosen next Tuesday, July 3rd (at midnight PST). Please be sure to leave your email address if you don’t have it in your profile.


Good luck friends!

I’m Loving . . .

These floor to ceiling built-in glass cabinets are stunning. Any designer would love to style these up with personal treasures.

Talk about beautiful labels – I think anyone would buy this jam just for that reason. I would!

This Rodin hand cream has been getting me through these cool dry days. It comes with me everywhere.

I’m all about black, gray and more gray – this look is effortlessly chic. Something I try to achieve every day.
I’m always on the lookout for fabulous tabletop items to decorate with for my next dinner party. This candlestick is incredible – love the way it’s twisted together.

The perfect weekend attire for running around town.


A messy pony is essential for busy work weeks.

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Inspiration for my moms new condo.

Neutrals and black ensembles make my heart go a flutter. This one in particular is stunning!

simplicity at its finest . . .

This past Sunday my mom and I set out to look for condo’s in San Francisco – she’s in the midst of moving here. When we came across a perfect abode for her (fingers crossed everything falls into place) we started dreaming up a few renovations, especially the bathroom. We kept talking about white, white, white.


After envisioning how I would redesign the bathroom I started sifting through my stacks of glossies to pull together my vision. When I came across this stunning bathroom done by Barbara Sallick in House Beautiful the search was over. This bathroom is perfection with the white tones, stunning pedestal sink and glossy subway tiles, and to top it all off, a French tri-fold mirror. I’m madly in love with it and wishing I could do this in my rental.
