L'Echapper Belle ("The Beautiful Escape") is a breezy beachfront home on Bald Head Island, North Carolina, and it is headed straight to my all-time favorites list! Captured beautifully by photographers Gridley + Graves for a cover story in Beach Cottages magazine, the beach home is awash in soft greens and blues, paired with white and pale woods that keep everything feeling light and airy–perfect for the beach! The homeowner worked with Shelley Thompson of Cottage Chic to outfit much of the home, filling it was comfortable and casual pieces that exude cottage charm. (Those comfy striped chairs are my fav!) So in love with the galley kitchen too. Did you notice how the upper glass-front cabinets repeat the home's window design? Such a great detail! You can read the article about the home here and see even more photos here! I also discovered the home is a vacation rental (woohoo!) so get all of those details here!

My day was made when I noticed the photos for the HGTV Smart Home 2016 were up on their site! Interior designer Tiffany Brooks did a fantastic job on the entire Raleigh, NC home, but one of my favorite spaces was this vibrant guest bedroom with tons of personality...and turquoise! It was love at first sight if only for the wallpaper, an eye-catching pattern from Eijffinger's Belle de Jour collection. The little nook in the corner is cute too...love how she used the curtains to define the space and make it a cozy room-within-a-room. See more photos by Robert Peterson of Rustic White Photography, take a video tour, and read all about the bedroom here!

When perusing real estate listings, it's not too often you come across a home so bright and cheery! My turquoise-loving reader Nancy shared this Ocean View, Delaware gem with me; 25 Sycamore St. is a Bear Trap Dunes home for sale that's filled with vibrant color and tons of coastal character! You can tell from the pics the homeowner had a blast decorating, and is quite possibly a DIY enthusiast! Love all of the painted and upcycled pieces! The striped wall in the sunroom is super fun too. Possibly the best feature of the home though is the community shuttle right to the beach! Check out the listing and see more pics here!
