Designer Crush of the Day: Sara Ruffin Costello

My friend, Sara, introduced me to the work of Sara Ruffin Costello and I was literally giddy looking at her stuff. When I found out she was the founding creative director at Domino I immediately knew why I was so drawn to her interiors. She manages to make spaces look elegant, laid back and lived in, all at the same time, while giving a space that "finished" look. She also loves fireplaces and restoration. She recently designed a downtown NYC bachelor pad that gives a whole new meaning to bachelor pad because I would literally move in exactly as is... She and her family moved to New Orleans from NYC and updated a gorgeous old home there. She also contributes to House Beautiful, Vogue, the WSJ and was in a commercial for Target for their Threshold line, which she helps design. Need I say more? The pictures should speak for themselves...

The lovely Sara 

NYC Downtown Bachelor Pad

 As if this gorgeous place needed any more fireplaces to add to its beauty!

Dying over this room. The bamboo shades! The painted brick! The color scheme! The great art!  

Office Reno

Target Threshold

Target has been on fire lately with their Peter Pilotto for Target line and with great home lines, including Threshold. I am obsessed with the bar cart and pink tufted ottoman below. Also, the white bedside table is perfect and why spend and arm and a leg for a West Elm Parsons Desk when you can get the equally cute one below??

Target Home: Threshold

I've always been a huge fan of Target. I've always been a huge fan of budget home decor finds. Finally, Target has started making things for the home that I actually like! Once they started their collaborations with brands like Shabby Chic and people like Nate Berkus, I knew they were headed in the right direction. 

The newest collection of affordable and adorable home products for Target is called Threshold and they have everything from poufs to pillows to accent tables to picture frames. They're right on trend with gold accents and even have an adorable nail head headboard. Below are some of my favorite (and affordable!) pieces.
