What Caught My Eye Last Weekend

August 3, 2021

It’s been a hot minute since I popped in last week with my summer living room decor ideas but a few things caught my eye last weekend, and I had to share.

House of Hipsters home decor favorite things Kyla Herbes

A couple of weeks ago I had a speaking event out in Napa, CA, and realized I need to upgrade my luggage, especially while solo traveling. While the beautiful vintage leather messenger bag I purchased in Germany worked in theory, the bag itself is heavy and organizational pockets for things like laptops, cords, chargers, headphones, magazines, etc…are none existent. While wandering the San Fransisco airport, I spied a TUMI shop.

Best carry on travel bag for women

Remembering how much I love the mini backpack Cambria gifted me at their Design Summit, I knew I’d find the perfect carry-on backpack that would be lightweight and full of pockets to organize all the bits and bobs I drag along with me. After that one flight, I can officially say it was worth every penny. It fits under the seat, all my chargers were easily accessible, and the best part, my, just in case my bag gets lost, backup bra didn’t land in my seatmate’s lap. Now I’m thinking maybe my normal purse needs to be traded for this weekender bag (not from TUMI but oh so pretty).

The Best Weekender Bag

Every year I try to convince my wallet to buy an Isabel Marant Etoile sweatshirt. When I finally decide to pull the trigger, it’s sold out. Every. Single. Time. Anyhoo, it’s finally available in green and Imma make it mine! These trainers would fall into my cart as well if they had my size.

IKEA just released its fall collection called HÖSTKVÄLL, and I’m here for the cozy autumnal mood.

IKEAs fall collection HÖSTKVÄLL autumn vibe

Did you see Zara’s new Scarf Collection looks just like Valentino’s archival scarf print collection? Up until a few weeks ago, I had no idea Zara is notorious for this. Props to Peyton Dale for making that public knowledge.

These nightstands might be perfect in the new guest bedroom although now that I’m thinking about it, the wicker sconces may clash with the caning. Gonna have to mock it up and see how it looks. Stay tuned. Anyhoo, the existing MCM-style nightstands in the guest room moved with us from our old house – here’s a throwback to the old mid-century modern bedroom decor. Do you remember this?

Mid-Century Modern inspired bedroom decor

Last Saturday major rug drama unfolded on TikTok after I swapped out an estate sale rug for this charcoal olive beauty. Within 48 hours, this silly before and after 12-second rug video received 1.6 million views and had over 600 comments which had me asking, “am I being punked?”

SIX HUNDRED mean, hateful, troll comments – many of which had me belly laughing. I texted a few special gems to friends, and my neighbor Lauren was like, srsly, you need to dedicate a full post to these. Stay tuned. In the meantime, tell me this rug doesn’t look amazing here! If you’re curious and don’t have the TikTokkery app on your phone, feel free to watch it here.

Want to know what this same room looked like way back in the day? Check out the first new rug for the living room here. Definitely not as dramatic.

Also, how good would this wall art over from Kelly Hopter Interiors be in this room?

House Of Hipsters living room home decor - eclectic modern style

Don’t get me wrong, I love this black painting Kelly Caldwell and I created together, but when Kelly Hopter Interiors posted that soft landscape scene on her Instagram, it stopped me dead in my scroll. Paired with the rug…almost perfectly, right? BTDubs, if you’re not following her on Instagram, go, now, do not pass go. Stop and slam your thumb down on that follow button. She’s an incredibly talented interior designer.

(AD) SWIPE FOR ROOM REFRESH 👉🏻 If you’ve been watching Stories that you know I’ve been working hard on this room and I gotta give a shoutout to @JaipurLiving for the new rug in their #KLwithJaipurLiving collection. This is Davina from their new collection with Kate Lester @klinteriors and it really brightened up the entire space. Although they recently showed this one with Harman layered over the top and it’s absolutely dreamy. If you haven’t seen the full collection, head over to their profile and check it out or tap the link below to shop the collection on @rugs_direct. While your there, give them a follow and tell ‘em I say hi. http://bit.ly/3tZgE8p

I need your help. This room needs blinds because the ones we have from 1986 are no longer cutting it (plus if you look closely, the blind on the right window is missing altogether). Zoom in to see the fabric samples I’ve hung on the glass. What would you choose? These are for the Smart Roller Shades by Serena from @lutronelectronics (there’s a closer look at the swatches on my stories). Because this is the living room and not a bedroom, I think the blackout fabric might be too dark, so I’m in between the translucent and the sheer. Leave your thoughts and opinions in the comments below and then head to stories to weigh in on the poll #LutronAmbassador #sponsored #SerenaSmarterShades

Over on the HouseOfHipsters.com I rounded up my favorite decor pieces from @serenaandlily like this alpaca throw. It’s the softest. After our whirlwind trip to Disney, I’ve been curled up her, recovering and hiding from my kids. What did you do for Spring Break? Hoping yours was warm and relaxing. Also, I’m finally figuring out this whole @ltk.home thing. Im sourcing everything on my shop @houseofhipstersblog on the @shop.LTK app to shop this post. #liketkit #LTKhome @shop.ltk https://liketk.it/3Bqa4

@JCPenney challenged me to design a modern spring tabletop with an Easter theme - but here’s the twist - no bunnies can be used. Can it be done? YES IT CAN! Swipe to see how I zhushed my dining room table by mixing in everyday dinner plates and glassware with some clay pots and raffia plus a video tutorial on how to fold simple bunny ear napkins. #AllAtJCP SPONSORED
