Nest by Southwest

Whenever the temperature starts to drop and the weather forces me to stay indoors, the need to nest begins to take hold. At Palomino, a boutique just off Hope Street on the East Side, owner Michele Zanfagna-Gouveia has curated a selection of unique decor accessories that offer solutions to fit that bill. Named for her favorite horse and relocated from Chepachet, Palomino offers pieces from small companies and artists. The overall vibe of the store is very Boho-meets-Wild West, with geometric patterns and neutral tones. Zanfagna-Gouveia says she likes to offer accessories that will not only stand the test of time but work with a variety of styles and colors in the home. When asked for advice on quick design pick-me-ups, Zanfagna-Gouveia recommends trying an easy fix like switching out existing art for a new and unique wall hanging, which can completely transform the look and feel of a space. Another great option she suggests for adding a pop of color or texture is to introduce a new throw pillow or blanket or two. Stop by Palomino to check out their selections and you just might find that piece to help you weather out the winter in style.
