About

Welcome to my blog! My name is Emily and I am currently a 20 something year old trying to make the most out of life. My goal is to inspire and motivate you to make your house a home and also share how simple it can be to create beautiful outfits with what you already have in your closet. I think home decor and style go hand in hand, with each being an expression of one’s self.

Whether you’re currently living in a tiny college dorm room, your dream home, or somewhere in between, my goal is to help you love the space that you’re in! I am so glad that you are here and I hope you will stick around.

When it comes to fashion, I believe that you can make a statement at any age and I’m here to show you how. By showing you different looks for different occasions, I’ll be sharing how to look great and feel like your best self. Confidence is radiant and it shines through to every aspect of your life, so I believe that a confident person will be a happier person.

If you are looking for unique and stylish home décor on a budget, then you are definitely in the right place. Home décor that is cute but also budget friendly is a huge passion of mine so I am constantly on the hunt for things that I can share with you. I will be sharing my passion of interior decorating that will hopefully be able to jumpstart your personal décor dreams. If you choose to follow along, I promise to provide budget friendly ideas along with affordable DIY’s and a mix of trendy and classic style trends.

Throughout this blog, I will be sharing pictures, ideas, and everything in between. I like to mix it up so it never gets boring, so that’s half the fun! Interior decorating is not only a hobby of mine for myself, but I also love to use it to help others as well. Being able to help create beautiful spaces for other people brings me so much joy and I never want to stop. I believe that a space that you love affects every aspect of your life and I would love to inspire you in that process. I also believe that looking and feeling good about yourself can change one’s outlook on life, which is why I share lifestyle and fashion tips as well. I invite you to follow along and start turning your dreams into reality. Feeling good about every aspect of your life can make a huge impact. I’m here to help make that impact a good one.

Follow along on my social media channels to get even more insight and behind the scenes on my design processes! Thanks for stopping by!

To the girl that can’t let it go, I hear you. I To the girl that can’t let it go, I hear you. I wrote a new blog post just for you, up on prettyinplaids.com now. ❤️ Forgiveness is hard. It’s hard to move past things that hurt so deeply. I hope you will find peace in this post, because I understand how difficult letting go can be. 

In other news, I’m feeling so pampered after meeting up with a friend to get a mani/pedi. I don’t do it often, but I just love getting my nails done. Having pretty nails makes me feel so confident. What have you done recently that makes you feel confident?
I was published in a national magazine! I have bee I was published in a national magazine! I have been keeping it a little secret from Instagram for a couple days, but one of my chalk paint projects was published in the June/July issue of @countrywomanmagazine!
