Sam Loves: 7

Monday rolled around a lot faster this week.  Our design firm was on an install in Charleston last week, and we didn't get back in to New York until Friday at 11 pm.  Needless to say, I spent the entire weekend off my feet, last minute Christmas shopping online, and Netflix and Chilling in bed.  I'm ready to knock out this 2-day work week and head back to OKC for Christmas!  Here's what my inspiration board is looking like this week-

1.) I'll be ringing in the New Year with my friend Katy in Austin, and I've been looking for the perfect outfit.  I know I want to wear some statement-making earrings, and these Bauble Bar Verbena Earrings combine two of my favorite elements- crystal and tortoise shell.  

2.) One of my favorite looks from Fall's Paris Fashion Week was this wintery white number.  The monochromatic look featuring a fitted top and a sassy feathery skirt is perfection.  Via Buro.

3.)  A stylish quilted black tote under 50?  Sign me up.  

4.)  Speaking of a New Year's outfit, strappy heels in a snakeskin pattern (or in black!) seem perfect for meeting 2016.  Need them for Christmas?  The good news is Nordstrom is providing free 2-day shipping as long as you place your order by 3 pm tomorrow. 

5.) I'm all about bold color and texture, and Pierre Frey's Inspiring Interiors coffee table book has a cover that's a piece of art itself. 

6.)I'm dying over the green apple shade of lacquer designer Christina Murphy did in her Park Avenue client's hallway, featured earlier this year in House Beautiful.

7.)  Antica Farmicista is one of my "go-to" brands for candles and soaps/lotions.  Their latest candle release, the Champagne Black Label, comes in a chic shiny black with a gold border trim.  I've been burning it in my apartment and the smell is both luxurious and fresh!
