    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.

From navy to teal, blue bedrooms can be peaceful or bold. We gathered some of our favorites to inspire you to use blue.Blue bedrooms can be subtle and calming, or bold and energetic. If you're looking for a simple way to incorporate your favorite shade, try switching out accent pillows or the art in your bedroom. When putting together a creative space for the kids, don't shy away from bold teals and turquoise colors. These blue shades pair well with fun lime greens and bright pinks. If you love a more classic look, light shades of blue are great for creating a soothing and relaxing space. For a fun but sophisticated blue bedroom, pair navy with white and a few bright accents. We've gathered our favorite blue bedrooms in every shade to help inspire you.

In the primary bedroom of this Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, beach house, designer Lynn Morgan set a soothing mood with a monochromatic palette of soft blues. The walls are pale aqua (painted Benjamin Moore's Sweet Bluette), while the fabrics, from the custom, upholstered benches to the bedding to the trim on the window shades, feature soft periwinkle. Aside from the benches, the furniture is sleek and understated to counter the room's rich hues. Plush, cream-colored carpet and crisp white trim further balance and frame the look. A gold-framed nautical painting provides an ocean-inspired focal point, and turquoise vases in the built-in cubby above the window seat draw the eye upward to the room's high ceilings.

This soft, vintage-inspired bedroom is a "graceful reminder of the home's history," says designer Alys Protzman, who brought the historic Cape Cod cottage back to life with bold pops of yellow in nearly every space. In this bedroom however, the signature hue was reserved as an accent after the designer and her sister (the homeowner) decided to keep the room's existing slate blue sailboat wallpaper. A white spindle bed, antique jug-turned-lamp, and old high chair that acts as a creative nightstand add a low-maintenance and cozy feel.
