      Hi. We are a design/style LA based company specializing in mixing eclectic styles on moderate budgets. Also we have a strange amount of fun blogging about all our design and style adventures. Right now I’m happy to say that I’m Target’s home spokesperson, bringing accessible/stylish design to the masses.

The Link Up: All the Things We Couldn’t Stop Talking About This Week

Leanne Ford Target Collection Today Inline 190108 05 7c15331cb438322253fb595249e6c278

This was our first official full week in the office since before Christmas (last week was a half week, plus we were up at the mountain house on a team retreat) and half the team was in and out sick with something. Starting the year strong here…

But, we’re back in the swing of things and so excited to announce a BRAND NEW series on the blog. Every week, on Sunday, we’ll be publishing a quick and simple list of all the things we buzzed about during the 5 days prior: things we read, things we Pinned, things we bought and truly, truly loved…basically, things we couldn’t help but share with each other (and now all of you). It’s what we’d tell our friends, cocktail chatter, but online on Sundays.

I know we kind of started this in the summer, where we had that Sunday newsletter of all the things I loved at any given time, but this one will be a team effort. Sometimes, you might hear just from me, but mostly, it’ll be a marriage of what has Team EHD excited.

Alright, let’s kick things off…

MY LATEST VIDEOS
MY LATEST VIDEOS

I’m anxiously awaiting the RSVP to Cup of Jo’s Soup Group. #JanStewary is a revolution people…it’s spreading faster than spilled bone broth on a sloped countertop.

I’ve lived in this insanely comfortable T-shirt basically for three months straight, and it’s more than half off right now.

Love this girl’s blog and appreciate her honesty, especially regarding spirituality. That *ish is hard to put out there.

At least four of us, me included, are super pumped about Leanne Ford’s new lighting collection for Target that’s launching February 10 (pictured above). This one will absolutely sell out (probably at the hand of my team alone), so set your alarms. 

The end of a design-blogging era…

Everyone was convinced that this ceramic bowl was some crazy expensive (or vintage) find, but really, it was from Target (who’s killing it in the ceramics game right now).

The “holy grail” foundation that Arlyn can’t stop blabbing about to literally anyone who will listen (she wears Natural Beige).

This article about millennials being the “burnout generation”, of which Arlyn, Sara and Ryann read every word, every pull quote and discussed at length while obviously avoiding doing “work” for a solid 10 minutes. From Arlyn: “It’s the millennial mike drop.” 

Sara hasn’t stopped undoing all the benefits of souping for Team EHD since she cracked open the spine of the Food52 Genius Desserts cookbook and spoils us with sweet treats basically every day. Thanks for nothing, Sara. (If you’ve sworn off sugar and other evil things this new year, she says their other cookbook, Genius Recipes, teaches you how to conquer cooking basics in a “foolproof yet elegant way.”)

Grace really loved this article from Refinery29 about finding a healthy, physical activity that actually makes you happy (dancing, walking the dog, volleyball!). You don’t have to make it a whole thing, just start.

These are Sara’s absolute favorite pans, and the only two that she’s been using for EVERYTHING lately—soup, pasta, veggies, meat. “I’ve actually gotten rid of most of my other pans.”

Our resident outdoor enthusiast Julie saw this heart-pumping movie by National Geographic filmmaker Jimmy Chin of Alex Honold climbing one of the largest rock faces in Yosemite National Park without any ropes…this is watch-through-fingers stressful yet exhilarating.

If you’re as obsessed with Myers-Briggs as we are (and notorious for not sticking to your New Years resolutions), read this.

Alright, come back next Sunday for more of our weekly musings (and of course tomorrow, Monday, for regularly programmed design content!). OH, and please do share some of your favorite things from the week in the comments below. Xx

    I love Vintage Revivals, esp. when she talks about a process, what went wrong etc. So honest! Check out the makeover of The Nugget!

    The link is bad to the “end of a design blog era” . I’m curious to find out what ended.

    1. laura says:

      Design Sponge is shuttering this year.

    My morning eyes read “These are sara’s Favorite PANTS…” instead of pans. I figured they had to be elastic waisted if they were good for soup, veggies, pastas and meat. Ha!

    What design blog ended? The link is broken.

      Design Sponge.

    Thank you for adding a Sunday post. It’s the one morning I like to lounge a bit before I get going. Having an EHD post to enjoy makes it that much more special!

  6. Amanda says:

    I love link round-up posts and I like to read blogs on Sunday with my coffee, so I’m excited for this new feature. Thanks!

    1. Allison says:
      January 13, 2019 at 2:35 pm

      Agreed!

  7. Lane says:

    Myers Briggs measures aren’t validated, i.e. they are not predictive of anything. The types are too broad too. They have great marketing though. Fun game too play, but no other utility. I’m certified in personality assessments with a formal degree 🙂

    This was great! Excited for the weekend posts.

      Great blog – loved all the links, especially the Genius Recipes cookbook and the article on millennials. Keep ’em coming!

  10. Allison says:
    January 13, 2019 at 2:34 pm

    Loving the variety and pace of your 2019 content calendar so far!

    1. milo says:

      yes!!

  11. Liz says:

    This is great! I’d love it if you try to include where you’re finding inspiration! I need new people to follow on instagram, Pinterest, places to shop, etc. for both home and fashion! Thanks!

  12. Julie S says:
    January 13, 2019 at 6:37 pm

    Wow some really good (and LONG…ha) reading food for thought today.

  13. Esther says:
    January 13, 2019 at 10:47 pm

    Loved this post! It was so fun to read and I bookmarked several of y’all’s recommendations! Looking forward to more Sunday posts!

  14. Jennie says:

    Love this new thing you’re doing ! Thanks ❤️❤️❤️

  15. Callie says:
    January 14, 2019 at 7:25 am

    I really love that you are doing this as I look forward to Cup of Jo’s Friday posts like this, and your two blogs are the only ones I check daily. Emily and team on a Sunday talking about random things– yay!!!!

  16. Susie Q. says:
    January 14, 2019 at 10:53 am

    Good lord, I read that whole millennial article and felt thoroughly burned out by the time I got to the end…and I’m not even technically a millennial. But yeah, that article is a must-read and excellent food for thought.

  17. Christine says:

    Week two of soup for me here! So perfect for winter and feeling better about all the holiday eating that happened.

    Also, horray for your shout-out to volleyball! I played in high school many many moons ago, but started playing again once a week about 3-4 years ago. It wasn’t my favorite sport back then, and and I wasn’t very good. But I love it now and (I think) I am much better even though I’m twice as old. When I also do other workouts and exercises during the week, it definitely helps in my game play. My husband has held down the fort every week with the kids bedtimes when I go play, starting from when the 2nd was only 7 weeks old. So great for my physical and mental health as a stay at home mom.

  18. Rachel says:
    January 14, 2019 at 12:44 pm

    I did that too and it wasn’t even the morning. HA.

  19. angelica says:
    January 14, 2019 at 12:51 pm

    oooh LOVE this! I was waiting for someone to talk about target’s ceramics!

  20. Jessica H says:
    January 14, 2019 at 2:56 pm

    I love the Roundup with links. The BuzzFeed article really made me think and was one of the best articles I’ve read about this generation. Thanks for sharing!

  21. Holly says:
    January 14, 2019 at 5:22 pm

    I love all of you but you gotta keep the punctuation inside the quotes or you’ll lose me forever.

  22. Sariah says:
    January 14, 2019 at 6:45 pm

    I’m a young Gen X’er and a lot of the burnout generation article resonated with me too. How depressing…makes me wonder what the cure is.

    I like this roundup idea, feel like you should have given Cup of Jo credit for the idea though.

    1. Liz says:
      January 14, 2019 at 8:25 pm

      The roundups will be fun!

      As for it being someone’s idea, I’ve seen roundups for quite some time on other sites. Making It Lovely’s Honor Roll comes to mind, but I’ve seen it on others, as well.

  23. sarah says:
    January 16, 2019 at 3:05 am

    i love this series idea!

  24. Anna says:
    January 20, 2019 at 5:21 am

    Love this new series!! Great to hear from everyone would also LOVE a post letting us readers know what everyone’s MBTI is (I’m guessing Emily is an ENFJ but I’m no expert)!

    Your team might also be interested in the strengths finder 2.0 🙂

  25. Nicolette says:
    January 20, 2019 at 3:48 pm

    I love the idea but hate not having photos to what you are linking to! I almost never click through…

  26. Ash says:
    January 20, 2019 at 9:31 pm

    That millenial article has some merit, but maybe read this one. It isnt a mic drop, it is real life.

Hello!

Emily is a stylist, author and T.V. host with a strong commitment to vintage inspired approachable home style for every single person. Perfection is boring; Let’s get weird. learn more

Interior Design Blog by Emily Henderson

I started this interior design blog in 2010 as a journal of my style and home projects with the belief that design should be approachable, informational and accessible no matter what budget.

As a home style expert who has a strong commitment to peeling back the intimidating layers of the world of home decor, and showing how every person can have a beautiful home that represents their personality, no matter what the budget.

After styling for magazines and catalogues for years, I started my own interior design blog, won HGTV Design Star, and have gone on to host my own hit TV show Secrets from a Stylist, Author the book STYLED, and create the design firm Emily Henderson Design.

My motto has always been to write and publish on my blog what I personally want to read about.

My interior design blog remains personal, totally transparent and honest - documenting both proud and embarrassing design moments/mistakes and giving real life pricing and expectations.

I believe that your home should look like you, that every room is soul-less without something vintage or antique. I also believe in having fun. Like, a lot of fun.
