Ready for Fall * Guest Post *

Guest Post by Ryann of Twig & Belle

I know this won't be a popular sentiment. But I'm ready for fall. The heat, the stickiness, the way my legs stick to the leather of my car seat, I'm over it. Over summer. I can hardly believe it myself. But I love fall, the colors and the smoky smells, and back to school excitation. I'm ready.
In preparation I've been gathering ideas for fall decor. I'm planning on cozy-fying my bedroom. Here's what I've been looking at so far:


I love the layering of textiles and the unusual objects.
 

Got to love this interior from Ralph Lauren. Plaid and leopard print? Yes please


Leather tufted sofa, a mannequin wearing a fencing mask and lots of potted plants. I could hole up in this room until winter was over.


This is actually the interior of the living room from the Sherlock Holmes movie. I like the big faded Persian rug, stacks of books and lazy luxury of it.
Using these as inspiration I made this mood board:

Wallace Plaid Blanket $89 @thescottishweaver. Butterfly Poster $24 @urbanoutfitters. Deer Head Hook $22 @anthropologie. Deer Fiber Wall Art $69 @urbanoutfitters. Faux Mink Throw $59 @zgallerie. Antique Persian Rug=Auction. Globe and Wernicke Bookcase=Auction $300-$500.

I'd love to have a bedroom like this, with a cozy gentlemen's club sort of feel. I'd make a cup of tea and curl up with a good book (maybe Sherlock Holmes) and never leave!

However......
This wouldn't be too bad either....



 Just saying....
