Back to school season doesn’t have to mean heading back indoors! There’s still time to enjoy the great outdoors (and even greater sales on outdoor furnishings), whether you’ve got a yard, balcony, or neighborhood park. If you’re short on space, a little bistro set (#1) and planters with a petite footprint (#10) are all you really need. Has your deck seen better days? Then a rug (#12) can cover rough patches and delineate eating and entertaining areas nicely. If there’s already a chill in the air in your part of the world, then a hip blanket (#2) and sleek fire pit (#8) will keep the good times rolling. Now get out there before summer (and these chic finds) are gone!

Home Trends | Indoor to Outdoor Decor

This post is in partnership with World Market.

Who’s starting think about their outdoor spaces? I know I am! Our backyard is looking pretty rustic right now because of ALL. THE. RAIN. here in Northern California. And actually we’re still in for more April showers, but I’m not letting that stop me from enjoying the sunny days we have scattered here and there. Our yard is still very much a work in progress, but I’m mulling things over and brainstorming on ideas. One thing I know for sure? We’re sticking with black and white. Simple, timeless and classic. I partnered World Market to bring you some of my favorite outdoor pieces. They have such a great selection of outdoor decor and furniture for such a great price AND in my color palette 😉

Copy Cat Chic Room Redo | Desert Boho Patio

Source: My Domaine

I spent the last few days in the real life daydream that is Marfa, Texas and I am not kidding when I say I really thought I might stay forever. There’s something about that high desert vibe that really speaks to the depths of my soul, and of course it gave me an excuse to wear ALL THE FRINGE. My best friend and I stayed at the very hip El Cosmico, and yes we rode Beyonce’s bike around the parking lot with a flat tire. We also stayed in a teepee the first night, which was really something special…also, something that may be helpful for you to note is to bring several pairs of shoes so that you never run out of things you can use to smash spiders. Also, leggings and shirts with elastic wristbands.

All that to say, I have a very real need to bring more Marfa into my life as quickly as possible and this lush, cheerful patio feels so right. Falsa blankets and Acapulco chairs for everyone! And if you can believe this–I found that exact vintage pouf on Etsy AT A REASONABLE PRICE POINT. Marfa is magic, y’all.

chair $313
table $64

Copy Cat Chic Room Redo | Breezy Back Patio

With the weather finally warming up most of our cities, it’s time to start focusing on our outdoor spaces. Being a Texan, spending time outdoors is practically built into our DNA, so it follows that we also devote time toward ensuring that our outdoor spaces are as inviting and hospitable as possible. My parents built a fantastic new deck last year, and spending time drinking beer and BBQing and sitting around their fire pit has been a huge motivator for me to show my own deck a little love.

Truthfully, I know a lot of us don’t have as much (if any) outdoor space as we would like, but the great thing about today’s relaxed, colorful room besides the INCREDIBLE price is that it can easily be incorporated into many different spaces. Maybe you have a sunroom or a spare bedroom with a lot of light, or maybe your living room needs a refresh—you can still get the look and feel of this room even if you change out the sofa for a bistro set or your guest bed. The key to this look is mixing bright colors in with soothing white tones, and incorporating different textures with the chunky basketweave on the sofa, the woven pillows, the breezy sheer curtains, etc. I also added in some fun decorative accents like the stone elephant to give the room a Moroccan vibe, and you can take the look even farther with a quick visit to a store like World Market or Pier 1—there are more great lighting options (the hanging lanterns and the Edison string lights are my favorites) and this super cool elephant wind chime. Ikea is also a great source for affordable party lighting that doesn’t require plugs (they have saved many a party, I assure you!). And a quick google or Pinterest search will also turn up some of the coolest and most affordable DIYs—there are a ton of ridiculously fun ideas for kids as well as adults to fit all budgets.
