This southern beauty by THE HAPPY BLOOM literally warms our heart (it's absolutely freezing here today so I needed warming up!). Full of elegance with touches of whimsy, DESIGN STUDIO SOUTH used a blush and olive colour palette keeping things soft and fresh and of course very Southern.

"Growing up Southern is a privilege, really. It's more than where you're born, it's an idea and state of mind that seems imparted at birth. Its more than loving fried chicken, sweet tea, football, beer, bourbon and country music. It's being hospitable, devoted to front porches, magnolias, moon pies and coca-cola, and each other. We don't become Southern, we're born that way." -Anonymous
