MAURA

I've personally been on the hunt for a new couch for my Brooklyn-sized apartment. I have the classic conundrum of wanting somehting that looks good, is also super comfy, and isn't too big…. can you relate? If so, this is the list to consult.

I've slowly but surely added personal touches to make decorate my apartment, with an emphasis on maximizing space & adding charm/personal touches. Here's the best things I've purchased so far!

kid-friendly decor, toys, and more that blend seamlessly into adult spaces too.

jewelry, bags, hair accessories, and more that are currently on my wishlist.

when temperatures are hot, you still want to be too (all while being ~cool~). some ideas for your consideration.
