As ladylike as we can be over at Caitlin & Caitlin, we have a serious penchant for masculine-oriented design. Dark paint, chesterfields and plaid are all part of our decorating go-to’s, so with Father’s Day fast approaching, we thought it would be the perfect time to present to you a round-up of “dad-inspired” design. And if you’re an exceptionally sweet progeny, feel free to use it as a proper gift guide!
Our personal favorites:

Yesterday was one of my most favorite shoots in blog history thus far! Kimberly Genevieve came over to our place and took photos for an upcoming Style Me Pretty Living feature that I cannot wait to share! I found myself readjusting and moving all of the little accessories in our home at least half a dozen times in preparation yesterday. I think I have mentioned before in this post how much I love simple detail shots when it comes to … +more
It’s no secret that Art Deco design lingers at the top of our (Caitlin & Caitlin) favorites list—we both live in Deco era buildings and one of us even has a pet named after the style! But what better time to celebrate the swanky, vibrant rage of the roaring 20’s (then 30’s and 40’s!) than with The Great Gatsy debuting this weekend?

The other day I was flipping through Elle Decor, ogling some pretty chic spaces, and having major interior style envy. My favorite photos are always those detail shots of some perfectly put together shelf or nook. When done correctly, these vignettes balance the perfect amount of color and pattern without looking overly busy, and the perfect amount of items as to not look cluttered. Since I was swooning madly for this particular styled set up, I decided to break it down … +more
We’ve been very busy lately at Caitlin & Caitlin Design Co. From fresh designs to finishing touches, we are stoked on all the cool projects we’re working on for our clients. With all the commotion, we often turn to coffee to keep us going, but at C+C, nothing gives us adrenaline like BRIGHT colors, BOLD fabrics, and LUMINOUS spaces! We’re going to give you a few tips on how you can turn up the volume of your interior and make high voltage elements work … +more
Happy spring! Over at Caitlin & Caitlin, we’ve completely come down with the seasonal fever. LA is warm, the sunny days are now longer and the trees are flowering, making everything smell amazing. Mmm…jasmine! So naturally, we’re obsessing on all things bright and poppy—but instead of bringing you the typical floral roundup that we’re so inclined toward this time of the year, we wanted to talk about a different trend we’re stoked on—watercolor.
What we’re loving about watercolor right now … +more
It may only be March, but 2013 has already been a jam-packed year! Aaron has been traveling between LA and Australia (amongst all of his usual traveling) getting ready for Ellen’s big adventure down there next week, and I have been juggling a lot more shoots for The Effortless Chic as well as trying to keep up with my regular styling jobs. A couple of weeks ago the stars aligned, and by stars I do mean our calendars, and we … +more
