Have you ever wondered which pieces in your home you should save on, and which you should splurge on? In fashion, they always say to invest in the basics…a little black dress, work staples, black pumps, etc…and avoid splurging too much on the trendy stuff. So is it the same when it comes to home decor?
In this post, designer Alexandra answers that question. She suggests you splurge on your sofa in the living room, window treatments in the bedroom, and chairs in the dining room.
So far, our biggest decor splurges are (or will be) the wallpaper in the dining room, our window treatments, a new basket chandelier in the foyer, and our master bathroom.
Are there pieces you splurged on invested in in your home? Where did you really try to cut corners?

OMG! Your new-look website is BEAUTIFUL. I miss the picture of the two of you together though. I think it’s because he looks so totally full of mischief. My first splurges are always on a drop-dead-gorgeous sofa that is super comfortable and a cozy, snuggley bed. The rest of my serious money goes into the kitchen. That’s where I spend most of my time – the kitchen, bedroom, the sofa playing with my computer or watching House of Cards (swoon) and White Collar (sigh).
Thanks Maralyn! Hopefully my response still shows up with the old picture! ;)
