Happy New Year! I just got turned onto this awesome blogger and wanted to show some love to Andrea Linett! Read below to get the skinny and let me know what you think! xxx Candy

Personal style, celebrated: this is the basis of Andrea Linett’s blog, I Want To Be Her! On her website, Andrea highlights the styles of regular women, dissecting each component of their look. It is a simple formula: she clearly relishes celebrating the nuances that make each woman’s look unique, affirming our philosophy that style (and design) should always be a deeply personal endeavor.

We were curious to learn more about Andrea’s own aesthetic and when we heard she was known to wander to ABC Carpet & Home we knew it was a perfect fit. Of ABC, Andrea comments, “It’s like the most high-end fantasy flea market; a true wonderland!” As such, we connected with her to discuss design, interior design, and her “claim to fame”…

I just did a fun exercise of visualizing my goals for 2012. Thought I would share with you all some of things that came to mind when asked:

How do you want to experience 2012 – what color, taste, texture, smell, sound, theme does it have? If 2012 had a theme song, what would it be? What images come to mind when you picture the coming year?

You should try it!
