how the other half live: reese witherspoon // 4 Oct 2012

Well, trust the lovely Reese Witherspoon to have an equally lovely home. It just suits her, doesn’t it? The now mother-of-three (with new baby “Tennessee”… too cute in Reese’s southern drawl) has turned this gorgeous Spanish-style ranch into a haven of peace, despite the fact that horses, donkeys, goats, pigs, chickens and dogs also call it home. Witherspoon had help from her friend Kristen Buckingham to maintain its original architectural elements, but also add a pretty modern touch. That ikat chair and reading nook were what first hooked me, but the hits kept on coming… the exposed beams, stucco walls, the elegant yet homely soft furnishings. Reese has done an amazing job turning this place into the pefect home for her perfect little family of mini-me’s. As Elle Woods would have said, “What? Like it’s hard?”
