Eva Marcille Home Collection- Get Ready!

Excited? So are we! Therefore, in order to get you ready for Eva’s upcoming collection we thought we’d share some easy decorating tips. All with the aim of helping you to infuse your home’s overall vibe with your own personal style!

Tip #1 Get Your Research On– Do a little homework to find out what type of decor looks you like and dislike. Search through magazines, books, social platforms dedicated to interior design and Google Images. In time you can see a clear pattern of the style(s) you seem to lean towards.

Tip #2 Don’t Chase Trends– The thing about trends, is that they are here one day and literally gone the next. It’s like trying to chase something going full speed and your pace is more that of a turtle. Instead aim to make picks that make your various rooms feel good, coordinated and comfy.

Tip #3 You Go Girl!– Realize now that nothing in any space will be or has to be permanent. The home style constantly evolves so be prepared to “let go” of various items or looks from time to time. You might get hitched, decide to travel plus your family may get larger or smaller.

All of these are changes that will cause some tweaking to your home’s style. Hey, look on the brightside. If things never changed, you would not get to enjoy the spoils of open concept, rustic, art-deco, mid-century, contemporary, bohemian or traditional design.

Tip #4 Say Yes to the Test– Before you purchase anything make sure that the item passes one important test, your lifestyle. Peer deeply into your habits, hobbies, interests, how you like to unwind, relax and just simply chill. If a piece doesn’t fit with how you truly love to live just do yourself a favor and forego it.

Hair Wars: Solange Versus Eva

image

Today’s battle is between two ladies who are no strangers to the short hair club. The hairstyle we are throwing into the ring of tress fire is The Crop. Solange Knowles’ version was a nice twist thanks to her showcasing her natural curls. However, Eva Marcille still takes some swings due to her daring platinum blonde hair color.

Therefore, who wins this hair war? Well, as always it was a tough choice that came down to one vote of a staff member. The winner is Eva for her hair color bravery!

Who do you think the winner should be?
