Last fall, my company was generous enough to offer a class changing the way we think about our careers: This was a week-long seminar dedicated to finding our whys. Why do we want to become successful? We know it can be something more than money. Why do we want to schedule our own hours, dictate ...
The All-White Easter Table
With Kentucky weather what it has been (read: nothing but rain for the last 73 years... or so), and Spring and Derby season on the horizon, I find myself just dying to have some real change of season in my life. I'm craving the tulip trees to bloom, the grass to raise its head from the Earth, and ...
Organization Update: The Kitchen
After much hemming and hawing, way too much time trying to find just the right canisters, and far too many hours pouring over The Home Edit's blog and inspiration-filled Instagram, the kitchen cabinets and fridge are finally organized, labelled, stacked, staged, and functional.
In the cabinets ...
For the Love of Black and White
Two weeks ago, I was enjoying a quiet dinner with a friend at Decca when Gen Sohr of Nashville’s design firm Pencil and Paper Co. walked in. I immediately fan-girled. Panic over whether or not to say hello, send a drink, or feel completely ashamed of what I was wearing set in. Finally, when I ...

I'm fortunate enough to have a set of neighbors with fabulous taste, a gorgeous home and own Scout- one of the best design and accessories stores in the city. One thing I almost always see, whether in their home or in their store, or in the houses of their countless clients is a handsomely ...
Pottery Barn Buffalo Check
For me, Fall has always been a time of joy. Being a lover of cold weather, steaming comfort foods, and roaring fireplaces, there's something about that first onset of cool weather that gets me excited for squash soup, gingerbread, football, and sweaters.
The folks at Pottery Barn have always ...
In the Navy
Inevitably, the grass is always greener. Those with wavy hair wish it were straight, while those with straight would love a week without their curling iron. Those living in a cooler climate wish for warm weather, while those with humidity crave a dry heat... Its never ending. We want what we ...
Current Obsession: Tiny Shotgun Homes
Here in Louisville, we're fortunate to have an abundance of home styles. From 8,000 square foot Victorian mansions, funky downtown high-rises, cheerfully colored row homes, and sprawling Indian Hills ranch-style, we really do have it all. I'm lucky enough to work in an industry that ...
