Lux Style Living


Hayden/Savoy Lifestyle Living would like to congratulate Lauren and Juwan on their New Home.
We enjoyed collaborating with them to bring their decorating ideas to life.
The colors for the home were inspired by Lauren's desire to have the color grey included in the color scheme and Juwan's desire to have the color yellow included in the color scheme.
Hayden/Savoy Lifestyle Living was able to infuse other textures and patterns to the mix to give the couple the felling that they desired…Hotel Lux Chic.

Did you know that horizontal stripes makes a room appear to be more spacious?

Hallway colors are Purple neutral tone
Side mural wall: Teal/Turquoise
Kitchen: Dark Grey with trim of Teal/Turquoise
Pops of color for character and depth: Marigold, Teal & Plum

 
 
The style goes well with the rich pale-toned furnishings and the luxurious accents of large pillows and lush window treatments.
This was a budget friendly project that the couple could display but continue to work in. We have given recommendations of
White distressed wood floors
Yellow floor rug or cow rug
Mirrored and Gold end tables
Or
Tall bookshelf
Modern chandelier for kitchen
Drop lights for bar
Hayden/Savoy Lifestyle Living wish Lauren and Juwan many happy and treasured moments in their new home for years to come

Go Mad for Plaid

Plaid is a huge must in your wardrobe this fall.
Whether it is tartan, hounds tooth or checkered, it doesn't matter, as long as it is plaid.
The best part about this fall trend that I love is that you can casually pair your plaid with leather, animal or floral prints.  You can also dress it up with sequins, chiffon and lace.  This is your chance to experiment and make a style statement that will definitely get you noticed.
Ladies, here are a few ways to express your style in plaid, this fall.



Guys, you can show off your style in plaid as well with clothing items such as, a classic plaid shirt, a plaid vest, coat, scarf or shoes.  For a business look, throw on a plaid blazer over a dress shirt with a pair of basic colored slacks.



You can also incorporate the popular trend in your home.

                               Plaid Throw Pillows and Bedding                

 

                                                         Checkered Drapery Panels   

                                                    

                 Plaid Table Runner



As you see, plaid is no longer just associated with lumberjacks, Scotsmen and farmers but this vintage pattern has evolved to be surprisingly versatile and chic.

At Hayden and Savoy Lifestyle Living, we love to keep you updated when we find great steals and deals.  An awesome and inexpensive online site where you can shop for this trend and many others is www.aliexpress.com.  Happy shopping!

Hello September....Hello Fall


It’s September and fall is right around the corner.  It is definitely my favorite season.
I love feeling the crisp autumn breeze, watching the leaves on the trees change to vivid colors, sitting in front of the fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa, wearing a favorite sweater or scarf, eating a caramel apple, carving a pumpkin, going on a hayride and the sweet smell of  baked cookies and pies infused with mulling spices.   
There is a renewed energy and enthusiasm in the air as a new season begins. Why not bring the renewed feeling of fall right to the front door of your home with a festive wreath.
Here is my fall wreath that I made along with a tutorial to help you do it yourself.
I purchased my supplies at A.C. Moore Crafts for under $20.00.  I picked up a grapevine wreath, a few bouquets of artificial flowers, and deco mesh for my ribbon but any color wire edge ribbon or items of your choice will do. This is your time to get creative!

 I used a hot glue gun to attach all of my items onto the wreath. 

 I also added some artificial fruit, cones and pumpkins.


You are done, attach your door wreath hanger and you are ready to welcome fall!

DREAM COLOR INTO YOUR BEDROOM

COLOR MAKEOVER:

So you don’t want to paint the walls? Try a color makeover by switching out some accessories.  Place color in the bedroom with pillows, rugs, curtains and accessories. Go bright with colors that initate energy.

According to www.dreammoods.com colors in dreams are subjective and personal.  I believe if you surround yourself in those colors you will invoke dreams, behaviors and spirits not only in your bedroom but your personal life.  These are the colors and feelings I am trying to invoke in my bedroom.

Teal
The color teal signifies trustworthiness, devotion and healing.

Orange
Orange denotes hope, friendliness, courtesy, generosity, liveliness, sociability, and an out-going nature. It also represents a stimulation of the senses. You feel alive! You may want to expand your horizons and look into new interests

Brown
Brown denotes worldliness, practicality, domestic bliss, physical comfort, conservatism, and a materialistic character. Brown also represents the ground and earth. You need to get back to your roots.
What Does Your Bedroom Dream?
