OK design aficionados, let’s take a fun detour back to the basics: why should you hire an interior designer? Sure, some outside the industry might think we just make things look pretty, but there’s way more to it! Think project management, saving time and money, and having access to cool resources.

Move over, Coastal Grandma, the Fisherman aesthetic is here to rough things up.
Lately I’ve been thinking about this trend. It’s something we’ve been quietly noticing in design, in fashion, even in the way people are moving through summer right now.
It’s not just preppy & nautical. It’s softer. Worn-in. Practical but still romantic.
This mood really started to come alive for me in August-when it’s hot in the afternoon but chilly in the morning. When you’re still buying tomatoes but secretly starting to crave layers. That in-between moment. That’s what this month’s edit is all about.
The August Edit goes live on the blog today at 3pm PST.
Ever wonder what your interior design style actually is?
I get this question all the time, and as a designer, I’ve found that getting clear on your style is the first step to creating a home that feels like you.
Not sure where to start? That’s exactly why we created our design style quiz-to help you figure it out before you dive into the decisions. Because once you know your true vibe, we can help you bring it to life.

Posted a new Supper on the Ranch menu on the blog yesterday and I think this might be my favorite one yet. The blackberry + goat cheese salad is peak summer (add grilled chicken if you’re hungry), and the maple + brie baguette appetizer? That one’s been making the rounds online... and for good reason.
It’s gone viral, but it’s actually worth the hype. Just a few ingredients, barely any effort, and somehow feels way more elevated than it should. I’ve already made it twice this week.
Such a good go-to for last-minute dinners on the patio or those random weeknights you want to feel a little fancy.
Comment ‘SUMMER’ and I’ll send you the blog post so you can save the recipes for later. Perfect for your end-of-summer hosting moments or a cozy night in.
This one hit me.
Things are shifting in ways I didn’t totally expect. Not ready to say more just yet, but feeling all the feelings and trying to stay grounded in the in-between.
Holding space for whatever comes next🤍
Comment JULY and I’ll send you what you all shopped and loved the most last month...
These were the top picks: the items you clicked, carted, and sold out fast. From under-$30 gems to a few splurge-worthy staples, this list says it all.
Don’t sleep on these if you missed them the first time around!
Soaking in every little moment from our Santa Monica trip last week 🌴 As a mom, spending one on one time with each child is always good for the soul. I made this a tradition with each of our kids after graduation and I can’t recommend sneaking away- whether that’s in your city for a staycation or jumping on a plane for a little weekend adventure. Quality time with my kids always fills me up and reminds me the “why” I do what I do in this crazy thing called life.
We talked about things we never talk about. We laughed. A lot. We had tough conversations about missing school life. He told me about his dreams... ones I didn’t realize. What he values in friendships. What he doesn’t need in his life. We reminisced about the family road trip to Yosemite in a RV that was falling apart as we travelled (ie. I had to lean out the passenger window to tell D when he could change lanes since we lost a side mirror amongst other mishaps 😂). We decided our new favorite summer cocktail was the Pina Calabra at @propersantamonica rooftop pool and pasta @giorgiobaldi_ristorante is the BEST summer meal.
I’m sharing a full recap on the blog: what we did, where we ate, and all the little details I want to remember forever. Part travel guide, part journal entry.
