Six steps to making holiday guests feel at home.

The holidays are coming. And so are family and friends. Now’s the time to spruce up your guest room and bath. It doesn’t take a lot of time or money. Just a few design-savvy ideas.

Feather your guest’s nest with 6 festive favorites.

With the holidays quickly approaching, there's no time like the present to modernize your guest quarters. For Thomas O'Brien, that means mixing the comforts of home—lush pillows and supple towels—with a few design-forward pieces. here are his picks that are big on style but not on price.

  1. Dressed-up Vanities

    Before guests arrive, set out a tray with a bottle of sparkling water, a few premium chocolate, and a hand-penned welcome note. During their stay, visitors can use the space to store personal belongings like eyeglasses and jewelry.

  2. Stylish Slumber

    Boasting a modern rendition of a Moorish tile pattern, the Thomas O’Brien Indigo Duvet instantly dresses up the most basic of white sheets. Add a further dash of color and pattern with vintage accent pillows and a contrasting throw.

  3. A Perfect Bath

    A guest powder room should steer clear of excessive decoration. Instead, opt for neutral-toned linens and clean-lined storage pieces.

  5. Suds Up

Easy ways to give your look a boost.

Have fun with the dress Wear it to the office or out to dinner, but make sure you have a little fun with the dress too! Add tights or a cute cropped jacket for a more casual look.
Cardigans go everywhere Can’t say enough about the cardigan. Wear it day or night. Dress it up or down. Layer it with a dress or with denim. Belt it. Cardigans are for every season—music to a Frugalista’s ears.
Finish your look Accessories complete the look. A belt helps define your shape and adds interest, while the right bag brings it all together. If you’re going out after work, throw a clutch in your bag and take it out with you for a chic evening look.

The word on this season’s colors: BOLD.

The word on this season’s colors: BOLD.

Don’t be shy about color. Now’s the time to break out. Solids, plaids, stripes and houndstooth have been reinvented in the new bold palette. The alter ego to frilly and formal, these hot-off-the-runway graphic look have a modern edge to jumpstart your wardrobe update.

Try mixing these patterns with bold solid colors. Black and denim also work well with saturated hues, but avoid mixing with pastels. Adding color perks up your look, and your attitude. Everyone can wear it. And, everyone can find it affordably at Target.
