Hi, fans of The Kuotes! I’m Julia Dzafic. For those of you who don’t know, I’m the voice behind Lemon Stripes — my blog where my adventures in style, healthy cooking, home decor, and life as a married young woman come to play.
I love everything bright and beautiful, and I’ve especially loved working with the team at Kathy Kuo Home as I renovate and redecorate my Connecticut home. Here are my tips on getting a look that is fun, colorful, and completely stylish.
This brushstroke lamp is one of my favorite desk accessories. Not only is it a sweet and playful pop of color, but each lamp is hand painted and unique to your home!
I like my home to be bright, light, and colorful. I use a lot of blues and whites because those colors feel calming and homey to me. I don’t love a lot of clutter, so I try not to have too much stuff around unless it has a purpose or it’s an important design element for the room.
Top Tips on My Preppy New England Chic Look:
1. Keep it simple
2. Pick and invest in neutral pieces (rugs, sofas, etc) that you love and then accessorize with preppy accents like ginger jars or rope lamps.
3. Choose a bold statement like the brass hand in my formal living room and the pink painted lamp in my office.
