    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The beginning of a new year often has us all feeling like starting off fresh by taking on better habits, getting rid of old ones, and—most commonly—changing up our look. While others are hitting the squats and going into the salon for a pixie cut, why not start slow and steady with a cozy winter manicure in a color that feels new to you? It takes only a little courage to step outside your usual OPI Lincoln Park After Dark or Essie Bordeaux, which is all you need to kick 2022 off on a fanciful foot.  From new wintry takes on classic dark nail colors to unique pops of color that'll have you feeling the opposite of boring, these are the best nail colors to try this January and tick off all the way into spring.

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    There's no denying how the pandemic fundamentally changed the world—including how we live (and work) inside our homes. An overall trend toward celebrating the history and originality of our homes is displacing ultramodern aesthetics and sharp lines as we all look to create cozier, colorful, more personalized spaces that better suit our lifestyles. We're turning away from big-box stores and toward vintage items—first, out of necessity due to supply-chain issues, and now, for design reasons—to add charm and character to every room in the house, including the kitchen. Here, interior designers from around the South share their predictions for what's trending in kitchen design for 2022 and beyond.

The Exterior

Charleston Stand-Alone House for Sale

The tall, skinny single houses—aptly named since they’re only one room deep when viewed from the street—were originally built to stay cool during those balmy low-country summers by optimizing airflow. Their most noteworthy feature is that the “front door” of the house opens onto a porch that spans the length of the house. That porch is duplicated on the second floor, with a portion having been closed in to create an extra room inside. Additionally, the house has a screened-in porch along the back side of the house that leads out to a spacious backyard shaded by mature trees. As with many Charleston homes, the outside of the house is just as beautiful as the inside—take a look through some of the best spaces below.

The Porch

Hanging ferns and floor-to-ceiling shutters—what could be more Southern? After walking through the “front door,” guests will be greeted by the gorgeous front porch, which has convenient access to the back porch as well, making outdoor living an easy choice.

Upstairs, a slightly simpler version of the detailed trim continues—accented in a pretty blue in this room. Even upstairs, the high ceilings and original wide-plank wood floors are standout features in this home.

Without any tall buildings in downtown Charleston, the unobstructed light that streams into this home is completely dreamy. The house has lots of storage space, with several closets that have custom built-in shelves and cabinets.
