INTERIOR DESIGN BY RUTHIE DARLING @RUTHIEDARLING Entering Megan Zietz’s uber-chic apartment, one could be forgiven for thinking that this full-time blogger is living her best single girl life in a very Carrie Bradshaw pad. Zietz, however, is married with two sons and one more on the way, all by the age of 30! “I was working as a costume designer, but stopped when my first son was born. I really needed a creative outlet, so my husband suggested that I start a blog. That was seven years ago and now my website, TF Diaries, has become my full-time job. My husband is a producer, so he helps me with photo shoots and videos after we drop the kids off at school.” Now that is some work-life balance! Zietz and her husband moved to Astoria from Florida three years ago with two small children in tow, which was no easy task. They found this charming railroad apartment in Queens. “I love this part of town,” Zietz said. “It’s great for getting around, and the school is really close. We wanted our children to grow up here.” Zietz’s life is all about style. On her blog she features fashion, recipes and, of course, her fabulous home, which looks like it just fell off the pages of Pinterest 52 FEBRUARY 2 0 1 7 (and was giving me serious apartment envy). The living room is painted a dramatic magenta color with prints in mismatched frames lining the wall. “A lot of the prints are from Minted, a brand I work with, and some of the others are actually Fashion Week invitations that I thought were pretty,” she said. “A couple are by my grandmother, who used to be a wire-walker in the circus!”
