But there is much more to me than that...

Hi, I'M MARIA MURPHY

I’m so happy you’re here and I'm honored that you want to know a little more about me! My favorite titles are “wife & mom”. I’ve been married to my loving Husband, Josh since 2014, and I’m a proud mom of two sweet boys, Mason & Miles. Family is at the core of who I am any why I do what I do.



Design is what I do best.

It all started when..

Well, I’ve always been passionate about home design. With both my parents owning their own architecture & design firms, I practically grew up on construction sites. Home design is in my blood. I’ve also been very fortunate in my life to travel all over the world and soak in history and inspiration. With my Italian roots, I’m naturally drawn to an European aesthetics.  I spent over 15 years in the professional creative industry & have been blogging here since 2014. Over the year's I've worn many professional hats, from creative director to interior designer & stylist, but the heart of what I do has always been the same. My mission is to help other women feel confident in their style & fall in love with their life & home.

If you're an og, you already know that...

When I first started my blog back in 2014 my content was primarily focused on fashion. I used this blog as my journal and fun escape from my 9-5 job. It somehow landed me in a position where I was attending and reporting on trends from NYFW, and even ended up a finalist to become a fashion contributor for E! Network. Fashion will always have a huge part of my heart, so it's been fun to share what I'm wearing and style trends I can see coming from a mile away. And now that I'm a busy mom, I love exploring how to fuse fashion with a more laid back lifestyle, making it extremely easy for you to replicate on your own!
