Beach Perfection by Tobi Tobin



It was love at first sight when I read the title of the spread, "California Dreaming" in the current issue of Lonny Magazine. The California home of Tobi Tobin is complete and utter perfection to me. First, it's on the Pacific Ocean, and does what I love so much in a home - brings the refreshed state of being you get from the ocean inside, with style. 

Check it out: 

lots of vintage goodies fill the home with character, make it look collected over time

that view...

HEART tripod lamps

love the mix of vintage and modern with natural elements abound

lots of mirrors make the smaller space look larger



collected

books never fail as accessories



hats and bags hanging on a wall are my favorite


long live the fedora


happy to see she has white appliances like me - who says stainless steel is the only way to go?





it must be nice to wake up to this!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's Get the Look post on how to outfit your home like Tobi --

    You were not exaggerating—this really is the best beach house. Perfect, really.

    I live in Manhattan Beach and close to the beach and I wish we had more of this style here (we're just south of Malibu). This is a beach house done to perfection. I'm a lover of all things white and this is the perfect place to kick your heels up, read a book, sip wine, and just relax. Makes me Happy.

    One of my favorites. This is how I decorate my sea cottage, same colors of white, espresso, sand, and sea with texture from natural elements. Only I don't have that amazing view.
