Steal These Decor Ideas Straight from Zooey Deschanel’s Home

New Girl, new house! With her first baby on the way, Zooey Deschanel is officially starting to nest, which means she is selling her Hollywood Hills home and moving into something bigger. Before it sells though, we had to take a quick peek into the place Zooey’s been calling home for the past few years. Completely fitting with her quirky personality, the 3,000-square-foot home lives up to our expectations. Filled with country accents, like plaid and florals, the home is decked out in bold colors — a navy blue kitchen and a library in bright, emerald green. See her decor choices, then imagine how cute her nursery will be.

Big windows and French doors allow the California sunshine to stream throughout the house and also provide views into the adorable little yard. Featuring a bold color pairing of navy blue and white with red accents, the kitchen feels fresh and welcoming. Plus, how amazing are those patterned floors? One of the hottest kitchen trends this year are marble counters, metallic accents and quirky lighting, and Zooey’s kitchen checked every one of those boxes.

Warm textures like wood floors, rustic beams and a brick fireplace create a farmhouse living room that is modern and relaxing. When you’re decorating a small space, light walls make the room seem bigger. Even the curtains are white, making the room feel even more open. We also love all the creative seating options in this room. If you’re entertaining a lot of people in a small home, consider multi-functional furniture like an ottoman that doubles as a table or pulling up the piano bench for more seating.

We love what is going on with this plaid wallpaper. Keeping the pattern to the upper half of the wall draws the eye up and creates the illusion of a higher ceiling. When the rest of the room is neutral, you can get away with adding a strong pattern like plaid. Thanks to removable wallpaper and stick-on decals, you can completely change the look of a room without paint or worrying about your rental deposit.

With white walls and white curtains, you might start wondering where to put the color. Here, the answer is a big pink and navy rug. Since the dining room is open to the living room, this bold rug helps separate the space. Rugs are great for anchoring seating arrangements and also help absorb noise and protect the wood floors if you’ve got kids or pets.

We love that Zooey didn’t hold back when it came to the paint color for this mini library. You might think that red and green together are a no-no, but the deep maroon curtains here help bring the room together, considering the red brick fireplace. While it’s true less is more in a small space, that doesn’t mean your home has to be stark and boring. Think about bringing in textures like leather, velvet furniture and woven rugs to create interest.

Even though it’s obvious Zooey loves color, we appreciate the fact she went for calm and peaceful in the master bedroom. Cool shades of blue and gray are the perfect accent to the warm wood floors and furniture throughout the room. Giant fluffy rugs on either side of the bed ensure there are no cold toes in the morning.

Small kitchens are a minimalist's dream design challenge, mostly because they don't require a major overhaul to look functional and stylish. It's all about making sure you use only the essentials, finding multi-purpose appliances, smart storage, and even taking design cues from larger kitchens. Small kitchens, in fact, are on trend in a sort of cottagecore, European aesthetic. Whatever your style though, there are plenty of small changes you can do to make your small kitchen look spacious. Now let's get cooking.

Idea #1: Pretend You Just Moved In

Ksenia Chernaya

Let's start with the idea that you just moved in by doing an inventory of your kitchen haul. Pull out the things that you don't use daily and find another place for them (maybe a closet or garage). Declutter and organize: Keep quality items, reduce plastic as much as you can, and find your inner minimalist by keeping the kitchen clutter-free by only storing essential items. Then decide where you could use organizers, dividers, and bins to keep drawers and cabinets tidy.

Elfa Over-The-Door Rack

Idea #2: Maximize Your Counter Space

Dmitry Zvolskiy

Counter space is essential in a small kitchen, so shed any non-essentials sitting on top of it. Can you move a microwave you barely use to a small island? Your juicer into a cabinet? Choose smaller or multi-functional appliances to save on counter space, and install cutting boards that can slide over the sink or stove. Foldable or extendable counters that can be tucked away and used only when needed are another great idea for small yet functional spaces.

Idea #3: Play With Vertical Space

Taryn Elliott

Think high when designing a small kitchen. Maximize vertical storage if you have tall cabinets. Use hooks or racks for pots, pans, and utensils to free up cabinet space. And add shelves for frequently used items to create an airy feel and make the most of wall space.

Idea #4: Embrace Light Colors + Reflective Surfaces

Beazy

Light colors for walls, cabinets, and counters can make the space feel larger and bring more light in. Reflective surfaces like glossy cabinets, glass tiles, or stainless steel can enhance light too.

Idea #5: Install Layers Of Lighting

ArtHouse Studio

A small kitchen can really benefit from lighting high and low, especially if you're not graced with a lot of natural light. Look for a fun (but small) pendant, install under-cabinet lighting to brighten up your cooking stations, add wall sconces to add extra charm.

Idea #6: Keep Your Design Consistent

Dane Deaner

Beyond decluttering and organize, use a consistent style for containers, cookware and organizers to create a cohesive look and feel.

Idea #7: Label Everything

Jason Leung

Label containers and shelves to keep everything organized and easy to find. Use clear containers too so you don't inadvertently double up on items. Now enjoy your clean and happy space!

Lounging on a sectional sofa makes reading a book and Netflix binges all the more cozy.

This post has been updated with additional reporting by Jasmine Williams.

Bridgerton is known for its romantic storylines, the insane chemistry between its couples, and its beautiful costumes. But it's also known for its needle drops, AKA orchestral covers of iconic rap and pop songs. They bring a contemporary flair to the show but also fit right into a regency ball. After season 3 FINALLY included "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift (not to mention the fact "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull was also there), I have quite a few songs I need to hear in season 4. Let's break 'em down (with spoilers!! You've been warned).

Here are the 10 songs we need to hear in Bridgerton season 4, Netflix!

1. "That's So True" by Gracie Abrams

StillMoving.Net for Netflix

The internet went absolutely crazy over "That's So True" — and posted endless edits of TV characters running during the bridge. So I'm gonna need to see Benedict and Sophie run to one another while this plays in the background, K?

2. "Pink Pony Club" by Chappell Roan

Netflix

Nobody throws a party like the Bridgertons, and nobody creates party music like Chappell Roan. I could totally see this song being added to Bridgerton season 4's music during a big, empowering scene...or during a more upbeat moment in the masquerade ball.

3. "Taste" by Sabrina Carpenter

Gavin Brown/Netflix

"Taste" is all about Sabrina's love — and the other woman in his life. Since Benedict is torn between Sophie and the Woman in Silver, this could be a clever way to play up Sophie's double identity! (I know what you're thinking: What about "Espresso"? Feel free to add multiple Sabrina songs, Netflix).

4. "Love Story" by Taylor Swift

Liam Daniel/Netflix

With the star-crossed-lovers of it all, what could be more fitting than Taylor Swift's "Love Story," which is all about a Romeo and Juliet-esque romance?

5. "Messy" by Lola Young

Gavin Bond/Netflix

Sophie is constantly overworked and used by her step-mother, and "Messy," which essentially talks about the idea of never being good enough, is a perfect fit the moment Sophie doesn't know what to do.

6. "Symphony (feat. Zara Larsson)" by Clean Bandit

Liam Daniel/Netflix

I know, I know. This became one giant meme and can't be taken seriously anymore. But you can't deny this is the PERFECT party song for Bridgerton season 4.

7. "Sailor Song" by Gigi Perez

Liam Daniel/Netflix

This haunting and ethereal song has been on repeat — and I can just hear it playing while Benedict daydreams about Sophie. (Or when they finally have their first kiss 👀).

8. "Champagne Coast" by Blood Orange

Netflix

This is another emotional song that I've been obsessed with. Netflix, it's perfect for any and all montages and flashbacks, just in case you were wondering.

9. "Birds of a Feather" by Billie Eilish

Liam Daniel/Netflix

I love the women of Bridgerton — and when Penelope, Eloise, and Kate inevitably welcome Sophie into the family, this would make the perfect background song.

10. "Diet Pepsi" by Addison Rae

Liam Daniel/Netflix

Bridgerton loves a steamy scene...and the people love Addison Rae's "Diet Pepsi." I'll leave it at that.

The wait is officially over – Dunkin’s spring menu just dropped! Starting March 5, you’ll be able to bask in the glory of 2 “highly requested” drinks returning to the lineup (looking at you, Dunkalatte!). There’s also a handful of savory snacks joining the spring roster, and I couldn’t be more excited to try ‘em. Plus, non-dairy milk will no longer cost extra at Dunkin’ starting March 5.

2 Fan-Fave Drinks Return To The Dunkin' Spring Menu

Dunkin'

Dunkalatte

You read that right – after selling out last fall, the "highly-requested" Dunkalatte has returned to the Dunkin' spring menu! Crafted with rich coffee milk, the latte (that truly tastes like a milkshake) also boasts shots of espresso that make it totally charged with caffeine. Dunkin' called it an "instant sellout," which is all the more reason to give it a try. You'll be able to order this baby iced or hot.

Dunkin'

Pistachio Coffee

Another Dunkin' fan-favorite, the Pistachio Coffee, has also made its return to the spring menu! This nutty coffee flavor first debuted in 2018, and I've been dreaming about it ever since. It's made with a "subtly sweet" pistachio syrup and Dunkin's Original Blend coffee for a satisfying sip. It's also orderable iced or hot.

More Drinks On The Dunkin' Spring Menu

Dunkin'

Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso

This Sabrina Carpenter-approved sip will thankfully stay on the Dunkin' menu. It boasts an icy, shaken mix of "bold" espresso, brown sugar, and oat milk.

Dunkin'

Raspberry Watermelon Dunkin’ Refresher

With notes of raspberry and watermelon, this Refresher is the perfect springtime sipper! You'll have a choice of mixing it with either green tea or lemonade this season.

New Dunkin' Snack Alert!

Dunkin'

Ham & Swiss Pretzel Sliders

Sound the alarms! There's an all-new breakfast snack on the Dunkin' spring menu this go-around. Featuring King's Hawaiian Pretzel Slider Buns, these sliders are stacked up with Black Forest ham, honey mustard, and Swiss cheese. There are two sliders per box, so you can easily snack away.

Dunkin' Snacks Returning (For A Limited Time!)

Dunkin'

Sweet Black Pepper Bacon

The Sweet Black Pepper Bacon will also be available at Dunkin' (for a limited time!) this season, available as a Breakfast Sandwich, Wake Up Wrap, or just the plain Snackin’ Bacon.

Dunkin'

Chicken & Bacon Croissant Stuffer

Just when I was missing chicken-filled breakfast options at Dunkin', the Chicken & Bacon Croissant Stuffer returns to the spring menu! Available for a limited time, this flaky pastry is stuffed with chicken, bacon, and Colby Jack cheese.
