There’s something so endearing about a simple beach cottage.  This tiny beach cottage, belonging to Alex Bates, creative director of West Elm shows how a crisp palette and pared back decor can have a big impact.


Vintage finds are teamed with modern touches to give a relaxed vibe.

How beautiful is this vintage table?  Apparently belonging to the previous owners, it looks brilliant teamed with some modern West Elm chairs.

Such a tranquil bedroom, how lovely is that West Elm throw?

The guest bedroom makes a feature of twin bedheads, which belonged to Alex as a child.
 Recovered in beachy blue, they add a nice touch of history.

Love the idea of vintage balck and white photos in the bathroom.  
Breathtaking against the crisp white palette.

This must be a favorite family spot to relax.  
The built in seating with comfy cushions looks so inviting.

Even the front porch screams relexed style!
Love the baskets and hats!

And the outdoor spaces are just as pretty.
How easy would it be to while away some hours here?

I also couldn't believe my eyes the other day when I was walking down my favourite shopping strip and noticed a big vacant shop with a sign posted out the front saying 'West Elm Coming Soon' I was so excited. I can hardly wait!
