We love interior designer Kevin Walsh–one look at this Little Rock living room and you’ll see why! We featured it in our August issue and think it’s pretty much the spitting image of this Elie Saab runway look. Classic and sophisticated with a hint of rebelliousness.

Nobody does khaki like Burberry, but we think this room does a beautiful job with it as well! Swathed in layers of warm neutrals, it’s exactly where we’d want to be on a cold, rainy day–unless, of course, we had a Burberry trench coat to keep us dry in the enviable outdoor living area (see below).

Color Inspiration: Going for Gold

February 9, 2014 by ark_admin

Gold flourishes are a must this fall. It took over the runways, like gold lame at Diane von Furstenberg and metallic foil printing at Jason Wu. If that’s too decadent, opt for accessories instead: strappy gold heels will do the trick, or a beautifully feminine Emily Armenta necklace.

At home, try incorporating gold accents, like glamorista Kelly Wearstler’s tableware for Pickard. Or follow designer Reggie Marshall of Marshall Clements’ lead and introduce it through molding to create the aura of an elegant chateau. “It’s something that’s just very French,” says Marshall, who designed this Little Rock bathroom complete with a Gothic Revival altar from Avignon converted as a sink. We could get used to that.

a brand new year

February 9, 2014 by ark_admin

We can hardly believe 2012 is just around the corner…

A New Year celebration is the perfect excuse to get dolled up for the evening.

Isn’t this dressing room heavenly? Sure to set a festive mood…

Take a little bit of extra time to light a candle and remember the passing of another year.

Of course, you’ll need a new dress too. This one is lovely for dinner or a night out on the town.

And no New Year would be complete without a glass of champagne.

Whatever you decide to do, we hope your celebration is filled with beauty…

Wardrobe-stylist Lynlee Critz dishes on fall fashion

February 9, 2014 by ark_admin

Fayetteville-based wardrobe stylist Lynlee Critz is a featured fall fashion expert in our October issue (more here). Ever the fashionista, Miss Lynlee also put together this inspirational collage with some of her favorite looks. And, scroll down to hear more about her own wardrobe this fall–frilly socks, oxford flats and all!

Lynlee says:

Recently, I had the privilege of dishing about my favorite fall accessories with a gal at At Home in Arkansas and we truly had a ton to discuss. When she asked me about my fall must-haves, the first item that came to mind was shoes, of course, which are always an obsession of mine. This season, I’ve truly been inspired by the boyish charm of oxford flats. And, there’s nothing like the edginess of a black mid-calf boot paired with a frilly, girly frock! I’m also a big fan of rocking the socks…I wear my J. Crew bright neon ankle socks with my muted ensembles and they give them just the pop of color they need. Being the accessories maven that I am, I have to tell that you that one mustn’t live without a bold, collar necklace with mixed gold and silver metals. This piece can make the simplest white tee come alive. And lastly, every girl needs a fur vest…it will make any silk blouse and skinny jeans look soo Kate Moss!
Happy shopping…

At Home Hits the Runway 3.4.10

Pink and white make for an inevitably feminine combination (case in point: Tuleh’s lacy top and pink-shorts-with-a-bow combo), and we love how it was translated with a touch of gold in this adorable baby girl’s nursery suite, photographed by Nancy Nolan.
