Award-winning interiors writer and queen of eclectic boho glam Kimberly Duran is the mastermind behind one of our favourite design blogs: Swoon Worthy. We could go on and on about why we love Kimberly’s unique style but here are seven succinct reasons why Kimberly is our Style Crush of the month.
1. You get an all access pass to behind the scenes before and after transformations.
Kimberly and partner Wayne are constantly transforming and reinventing the rooms in their stylish Edwardian home – including a soon-to-be-revealed man cave and her most recent project: turning a second bedroom into a boho glam office.
2. She’s your go-to for ultimate wallpaper inspiration
From cheeky animal prints to intricate geometric patterns, Kimberly decks out her rooms with some of the most bold and beautiful wall coverings around.
3. She proves prints don’t just belong on your wall
If extravagant wallpaper is a shade too radical for you, Swoon Worthy is full of more subtle ideas for home accessories and finishing touches that can augment your home with prints and patterns.
4. She’s got the midas touch
Kimberly loves a gold finish – whether it’s a sink, door handle or table decoration. These metallic details – no matter how small – create a luxurious and high-end feel to her interiors.
5. She knows how to dress up the strong stuff
Whether transforming a whole wall into a vertical cocktail bar or elegantly accessorising a drinks tray, even Kimberly’s alcohol stash is the epitome of eclectic boho glam.
6. She serves up the best looking table dressings
Kimberly’s style is all about personality, and that applies to even the smallest of details. Her table dressings are the perfect example of this approach; a kitsch napkin, quirky center piece or a chic tablecloth can make all the difference in creating a unique look.
7. She has an adorable assistant
It’s no surprise that Kimberly’s trusty assistant, the gorgeous Meisha, is as stunning and beautifully patterned as her owner’s house. Her cameos on Kimberly’s Instagram are always a highlight for her followers.
