Wednesday Watch List

Welcome to this week’s Wednesday Watch List, where I share the random things that captured my attention and stole my heart over the past week!

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5

1 – Mark D. Sikes is absolutely the king of blue and white interior spaces, and I’ve loved all his books over the years. His latest, “Forever Beautiful”, includes this gorgeous East Hampton weekend home. I especially loved the two-story living room/library (the full image is even more beautiful). It gives “Something’s Gotta Give” mixed with traditional and classic vibes and it’s all so good! That type of style you know people will still try to recreate 50 years from now. You can tour the full home here.

2 – The shoe designers at Target deserve some serious credit this year! After crushing it with the spring/summer sandal game, they’ve outdone themselves again with their holiday shoe collection! Most of these designer-inspired chic finds come in at or under $40 and come in a variety of colors. I love that several also have a memory foam insole, making them super comfy!

3 – If you love Martha Stewart as much as I do, her latest cookbook with her 100 favorite recipes, life lessons, and stories from her kitchen was released yesterday! I had it on pre-order, so mine arrives tomorrow (our shipping takes longer here on Prime), and I can’t wait to dig in! With the recency of the release, this would also make a great hostess gift or gift ideas for someone who loves to cook!

4 – As the holidays begin approaching, I’m all about “put a bow on it” and suddenly it’s festive.  I’m using a few sets of these sparkly pave rope bows on our loft Christmas tree this year and I love them so much! They have a built-in wire, making it easy to attach them to tree branches, but you could also use them on gifts, around necks of wine bottles, around hand towels (or napkins at a place setting) – really anywhere you want to add a little sparkle and fun details! I got the champagne color but am also considering snagging some of the light silver now that I know how much I love them!

5 – I’ve really been loving spaces that have something other than a white or neutral sofa lately. I’m just now realizing the Mark Sikes space above has light blue sofas even though this graphic below is something from a few weeks ago. Ha! I was planning to do a sofa round-up post but wanted to share these now since most are already on Black Friday sale or likely will be. And if light blue isn’t your thing, I also have some gorgeous brown sofas below that I’m loving just as much! Additionally, if you love the shape, most of these come in a multitude of color and fabric offerings! All sources are listed below the graphic.

    A friend of mine got an olive green velvet sofa, gorgeous! And I really think it works as neutral, you can pair a lot of colors with olive green!
