Do shop vintage
Find unique pieces that not everyone has. Have fun searching for items that are meaningful and add character to your space.
Don't make things look too perfect
Aim for a casual, lived-in look. Avoid overly arranging pillows or stacking coffee table books too perfectly. A bit of messiness shows more character.
Do play with textures
Mix and match different textures to add depth and interest to your interiors.

Don't rely solely on the internet for inspiration
Travel and find inspiration in good books. The older the book, the better.
Do create conversational areas
Arrange furniture to facilitate gatherings and conversations, which is key for a good party. Provide areas where people can comfortably gather and talk.

Don't overcrowd your space
Simplicity is often better. Avoid overcrowding your couch with too many pillows or trying to fit too much furniture into a room.
Do invest in lighting
Use unique lighting, such as sourced sconces and floor lamps, to bring life into a space. Ensure overhead lighting can be dimmed to set the mood. Don’t invite me over unless you have dimmers.
Don't forget about comfort
Ensure your space is comfortable, with furniture and decor that are not only stylish but also inviting and functional.
Do use durable materials
Choose materials like mohair that are long-lasting. Investing in high-quality materials ensures that pieces can be enjoyed for years without tarnishing.
Don't ignore scale and proportions
Invest in furniture that grounds your space. Avoid buying an expensive rug that is too small for the room. Instead, consider a larger, more affordable rug that ties the space together. Nothing is worse than furniture that looks off scale.
