The Adirondacks.

I really want to go.

It is up in the mountains in New York and it is all wildlife-y. There are a bunch of lake houses and lodges all about, but here is my all time favorite picture from the adirondacks. Also, I found this collage of decor and I feel like it would be my perfect lodgy lake house style if I had one. Maybe one day, maybe one day.

ooh, ahh.

You don't have to have logs, moose heads, bear rugs, and an oversized couched to enter into the rustic lodgy design. Trust me, you don't have to compromise all of the feminine touches! Have fun with it and be creative...that is kinda the whole point of design.

Last week I got the new Elle Decor in the mail, and the cover is rustic, cozy, and has an abundance of texture. I am personally attracted to the neutral palette contrasted by the texture and accessories. Whoever the photographer was, props to them because the light through the windows creates real depth in the room.

Ya'll enjoy!
