Opt for Style AND Comfort

One misstep you should look to avoid when styling your home is placing too much of a premium on one or the other. Yes, the look of your home is important. You have a particular taste in furniture and décor and your home should reflect that. But not at the expense of comfort.

Styling your home should be a combination of style and comfort. Too much or too little of either element will leave something to be desired.
