Love Note: Emily Henderson







Oh, Emily.
How I love thee.

No, but really.

I love her.

I remember many moons ago, watching Miss Henderson on Design Star and obsessing over her infamous glass house space. Then, she won the competition and I was elated because it meant I could keep up with her on Secrets From a Stylist on HGTV. Then I found out she was a blogger. And my little heart swelled even more. Sometimes when I see her working and talking with bloggers that I follow everyday, it makes me think I know her a little bit. Like, we know the same people. Run in the same circles. Though in all fairness, most of those people I just know (they don't really know me, persay) but who is getting technical about this? The point is, we're practically best friends.

I love looking to Emily's portfolio for inspiration when I work with my own clients. Her projects are so diverse, yet you sense Emily's aesthetic in all of them, no matter the style. They are layered, bold, comfortable, and interesting. And most recently, I'm so inspired by her new guest room. 

THAT is the magic of styling, people. 

In conclusion, I love Emily and you should too (though you probs already do).

Love,
Caitlin

P.S.Speaking of all of this, I've been working on a site for my design/styling services which will be up verrrry soon. Unfortunately for all of us, I'm designing it myself so these things go at a snail's pace because I first have to figure out what the heck I'm doing. But I'm almost done! It should be going up next week, so please stay tuned!
