Stylist Emily Henderson‘s new house in Los Angeles is organized, inspiring...and decorated for real life. She invited Real Simple over for an exclusive vis it.
AS BUSY parents of two young kids, super stylist Emily Henderson and her husband, Brian, aimed to create a space where they could really live—a home where nothing is too precious and everything is easy to maintain. “This isn’t the time in our life to worry about water rings on the side table,” says the Target home-style expert. Instead, she chose pieces that would hide imperfections (the patterned living room rug) and patina with use (the leather trunk turned accent table). An avid flea market shopper, Emily suggests homing in on items made with leather, aged wood, and unlacquered brass to achieve a similar well-worn effect.
