You know those rooms that never quite look as good as the photographs? Well this blue and white living room isn’t one of them.  I can personally attest to MKR’s incredibly styled living room that’s just as comfortable as it is beautiful, so I wanted to bring it out of The Archives to revisit in all its glory today. (It really does look like this all of the time!) 

MKR originally shared this peek into her home as part of One Kings Lane’s Style It Challenge and the debut of these amazing foo dog X benches. While working on the project, I quickly learned how versatile these benches really can be, on top the fact that I’m utterly in love with their look as well. 

But all of the design feels don’t stop at the X benches.  The plethora of designer pillows atop a large cream sectional sofa create a truly stunning effect, and it’s my favorite part of the room. The variety of blues calm, inspire and welcome you to cuddle into the sofa’s depths. For the record, after sitting right here, I’m forever cursed with the never-ending hunt for a deep, comfortable sofa like this one. 

You’d think the design would stop there, but alas there’s a fantastic silver-trunk-turned-coffee-table (this is MKR we’re talking about here, after all) and the thing is styled to perfection. It sits happily atop a grand area rug that I could only hope to own a similar one someday. 

Lastly, and of course, a thriving fiddle leaf fig tree peeks out among the furniture in MKR’s living room like in any designers’ impeccably styled home. Though I’ve heard her joke many a time about how hard it is to keep those fickle things alive. (I know what you’re saying…maybe this would be a better option?!) 

So what are you waiting for? Get to pinning! It’s a blue and white living room for the ages. Cheers, Kat
