Alaina From The Everygirl Tells Us Why She Loves the Carlisle Sofa

We’re huge fans of must-read site The Everygirl and its co-founder Alaina Kaczmarski. Alaina recently shared photos of her beautiful apartment with us, and we were delighted to see that she chose the Carlisle Sofa as one of the main focal points in her living room. Let’s hear what Alaina has to say about her decorating style and why she loves this sofa.

 

 

Why did you choose this sofa?
The English roll arm has been my favorite style sofa ever since I saw it in Jenna Lyons’ Brooklyn townhome a few years ago. I love that it’s both comfortable and elegant.

 

 

What’s your advice for choosing an investment piece like this?
Go with classic styles and neutral colors you’ve liked for years. If you’re anything like me and want to switch things up every few months, know that an investment piece is there to stay and needs to transcend your ever-changing taste.

 

 


Why do you enjoy shopping at Pottery Barn?

I love the convenience of visiting the stores, the customer service, and the quality of the products!

 

 

How would you describe your style?
Preppy but fun! I gravitate toward classics — white, black, navy, a roll arm couch and clean lines. But I love my share of polka dots, neon and sparkle.

 

 

What’s most important to you when styling your living space?
Ample seating and a place for everyone to conveniently set their drink.
