Happy almost 2025! I’ve already switched gears and I’m looking toward the future. I’m working hard at my law firm taking on more responsibility and a lot of interesting cases, but still spending my non work hours admiring inspiring design content, pinning images for the Mediterranean house I want to build in another year or two, and planning a trip to Morocco in the late spring. 2025 holds so much promise for growth and expansion but I’m also committed to maintaining a healthy life balance.
This time of year is so interesting, so many design articles doing recaps of 2024, declaring what’s in or out for 2025, it’s amusing to me how the community recycles this type of content every year. I’ve always been one who appreciates classic elements, but also loves watching the changing aesthetics, and I’ve seen so many trends come and go. My theory when it comes to decorating choices has always been “you do you” and make your home a reflection of what feels good, regardless of trends. Are you the same?
