In this crazy day and time people crave warmth and cozy , comfort and beauty ❤️ Just my humble opinion/observation ☺️ Her style includes it all , no trends just timeless, classic taste ✨
“It’s Complicated” is hands down my favorite Nancy Meyers’ movie for storyline and decor. Meryl Streep”s house and garden are just dreamy even before the renovation. I could easily see myself living comfortably and cozily there. Great video!
I wasn't familiar with Nancy Meyer's work but glad your video was recommended. The houses in those movies are definitely characters of their own. Thank you for putting together this beautiful & informative video. Very relaxing!
I love the Candice Dias Spanish house in the Holiday, but also adore the Hamptom's home in Something's got to give. (I think that is the one with Jack Nicholson. I didn't like him as the lead though.)
💕🩷 I enjoyed this post very much! This is my first visit, but I’ll be back for more. Your narrative was interesting and informative…and you have a very nice voice. Thanks!
I have 2 antique round top tables I will switch out with a couple side tables with drawers in my living room. That was on my mind for a while, you gave me inspiration.
I have noticed that one of the things I like about Nancy Meyers sets are her use of side tables and coffee tables that are open and you can see through the legs of it. Nothing clunky to block the view of the rest of the room. Those type tables, with drawers or cabinets, are used against the walls.
I'm in the research phase for an English Country cottage design video. I hope to have it finished before Thanksgiving. Fall [into Winter] feels like a good time to be in a cozy cottage☺
I live in a rental, but over the years, I realize this is the way I keep my home, especially as I grow older. It's heavily influenced by my mother - we always mosey through antique stores and garage sales. We were a military family, and no matter where we lived, my mother made sure our temporary home was warm and welcoming. She still decorates with dark woods and whites, creams, blues, and soft yellow. The furniture was second-hand, antique, and timeless. She kept the gardens neat and always planted a row of white impatiens, even if we only lived somewhere for a year.
@@jomoney465 MS, you're in my brain right now. I was just making a note about "Nancy Meyers Part 2" for 2025 and saw your comment pop up! 👯♀ Thanks for watching and subscribing!
This aesthetic has been recently known as “coastal grandmother” I’m not a grandmother yet. I’m originally from New England. I’ve always called this aesthetic coastal New England look or sometimes Martha Stewart. Or I’ll explain it with the actress nam Diane Keaton style. But you’re right it makes more sense to call it Nancy Myers aesthetic.! I live at the beach of this exactly my style!
Yes, I remember this term floating around a few years ago. I can see the "coastal" influence the most in Something's Gotta Give. As for the "grandma" part, I assumed it meant having a cozy home with antique pieces. If that's what being a grandma means, sign me up! Thanks for watching 🙂
Love the mood board. I would go a little darker on the sofa/chair color just to hide any spots, otherwise I love it. The 'Father of Bride' house is my favorite, I found myself watching to see the house & I'm a prairie/craftsman-arts & crafts/some mid-century gal, but also an Interior Design graduate ;) Yes, I remember the mood boards, we called them color boards & went 'old school' with clipping stuff from actual physical samples & rubber cementing them to a piece of tagboard ;)
Thank you! RE: the light colored fabric covered furniture. I’m relying on the combined magical powers of a slipcover and washing machine to save me. 😉 I love a craftsman home, they are so cozy!
I was wondering if you have an idea of what made the Nancy Meyer aesthetic recently explode on u tube? I have seen this style and these movies on a few blogs now. I love it ,because I love her style. But what triggered this movement?
I wasn't aware that the Nancy Meyers style had exploded on RUclips, lol. Apparently, RUclips's algorithm hasn't realized I like her enough to suggest similar videos. 😕 Nancy Meyers' home was featured in Arch Digest not too long ago, so that might be the reason why she's top of mind. It is also possible that more of her movies are available for streaming right now, so more people are aware of her.
I feel that the younger generations are missing that traditional feel of their grandparents/parents home over today’s disposable furnishings. All of these examples have a common thread- personalization. Younger people are keeping up with trends over traditional long lasting timeless design. Not one of these homes look outdated. They exude warmth and that feeling of belonging.
@@katieseaman7284 Plenty of older people (50 and up seems to be what most would agree aren't whippersnappers) are like that too. "Keeping up with the Joneses" is nothing new. And you'd be surprised how many whippersnappers DON'T fall into the category you're trying to put then in. Age has nothing to do with it.
Yes, fixed. The one in my video is from Pottery Barn. It may be too pricey, so I linked a few similar, more affordable options as well. Thank you for catching that!
“Beautiful”, the book by Mark D. Sikes, is the look of Nancy Meyers that’s *not* designed to be a movie set. In fact, Nancy Meyers wrote the foreword to his book. She recounts how she and her daughter met him in Los Angeles. And then, goes on to discuss how much she has come to rely on him for inspiration, plus his skills and talents.
Re the lighting - these are, of course, movie sets. The wonderful lighting is created by offscreen IATSE technicians. I love Nancy Meyers houses in her movies, but I'll bet even Nancy Meyers can't replicate that kind of light in her own home.

Same, I love that movie and the house. Thanks for watching!
It’s complicated and Father of the Bride come to mind! Thanks for this video!!
Love those homes! Thanks for watching. 🙂
Somethings Gotta Give and It's Complicated are my favorites!

You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, thank you for watching. ☺
I have watched The Holiday countless times just to look at Jude Law. IMO, Jack Black is totally out of place. 😮
❤ the little cottage. Perfection.
Omg… I thought I was the only one who thinks this… absolutely agree with you 😊✊
Jack Black was a miscast IMHO.
Kate Winslet getting stuck with Jack Black made me want to 🤮! Poor girl... 😖😣😩
I love the California house. It is gorgeous.
Jack Black miscast.
I never realized it before, but this is exactly my style!
My favorite is the English cottage from The Holiday. It is absolutely my dream home.
That IS a good one. I love an English cottage. So cozy.
Yes, I loooooove that too! Big spaces aren’t really for me
100%
I love the Candice Dias Spanish house in the Holiday, but also adore the Hamptom's home in Something's got to give. (I think that is the one with Jack Nicholson. I didn't like him as the lead though.)
@@DeBee-dc9ce Yes, you're right about Jack Nicholson. I believe Keanu Reeves was also a love interest. Beautiful home
Great deciphering & mood board ❤
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Very nice! Love thrifting! All good recommendations!

One of the better interior design videos I’ve seen 👏 great job and thank you this video was super helpful
That's so nice of you to say. Thank you for watching! ☺
Even though the homes in the pics are upscale, they all look cozy and lived-in. Nice.
Very true
For me the home from Its Complicated. I have that movie on sometimes just to admire the home.
Same, it's stunning
I liked the decor from its Complicated. Great location too.
Same. Beautiful inside and out
I have Benjamin Moore’s “Muslin” in several areas of my home, and I love it!
Love that!
thank you ! I will look into that color. Did you use it on walls or trim, or both ?
@ I’ve used it on my walls, with white on the trim.
Very fun to watch!
Thank you, it was fun to make!
Great video thanks for sharing.

I would love to see that also! I love country cottage as well.

It’s complicated. Wonderful house. I’ve always been confounded by the Meryl Streep character’s need to build a new kitchen. I’d love it as it is.
I love that house. I need to rewatch that movie. Thanks for watching my video!

It’s lovely that she made so many places feel like home 🥰
what beautiful memories
Love this!!
Thank you, me too! 🥰
Somethings got to give and The Holiday.
I love English Country Cottage style. . . thinking about making a video about it.
Loved this. My fave is Somethings Gotta Give……the kitchen is so gorgeous…maybe you could do a mood board for a NM kitchen next?
Should I do a whole house? 🙂
@@MegantheWild Yes please…you broke it down and explained it so well
@@Hunterhaunt I'll think about it. 🙂Thank you!
@@MegantheWild hope you do ! I'm a new viewer/subscriber and I love all things Nancy Meyers. I'm in

Glad you found me 🙂
Something’s gotta give. The Holiday
My trio of favorites…”Something’s Gotta Give”, “The Holiday” and “It’s Complicated”!
All beautiful!
Something’s Gotta Give.
I love the English cottage in The Holiday. Megan, would you fix the link to the tray? It's the same as the curtains. Thanks!
Yes, fixed. The one in my video is from Pottery Barn. It may be too pricey, so I linked a few similar, more affordable options as well. Thank you for catching that!
@@MegantheWild Thank you!!
@@suesteudle7705 No problem. Thank you for telling me and for watching 🙂
Sometimes I watch Something’s Gotta Give just to look at the house.😅
It’s so pretty
Me too!
😂 I do this with Its complicated
Yes! The soundtrack is also wonderful.

I love that house. 😍
Father of the bride.
It looks similar to Joanna Gaines’ farmhouse style, with all the black, white, wood tones and neutral shades.
Do you have a link for the wood floor or something similar?
I believe it is this: bayareatileandhardwood.com/product/chagall-louvre/
