Stripe Hype


Whilst I've been in London this week I took it upon myself to take a wander around the wonderful streets of this amazing city and look at what Spring fashion has to offer us at the moment. This was purely business of course (wink, wink!).. 

I came across lots of bright, bold and colourful stripey clothing and accessories, so I decided to see how the interior designers are incorporating this into the world of decor.

Each of these wonderful rooms share a common theme but manage to ooze different styles and feelings by careful thought and clever combinations... have a little look for yourself....



 Be playful and experiment with different coloured tiles in the bathroom. It's so simple, but so effective..



A chunky stripe on the wall will do so much to any room..




Create a relaxed look by hand-painting stripes onto your wall..

 Striped furniture is classic and will never fail...!

This blue-and-white dhurrie rug brings the room together with a fresh, nautical, 'beside the seaside' look.


Bring the eye level up and over by painting the ceiling in various shades....




An over-sized monochrome chair stands out to create a focal point in a minimal room...

 A thin stripe on the wall will modernize any space and teamed with a light shade keeps it simple...

A striped throw will bring any sofa to life! LOVE!!!

 ....and last but not least, be bold!! 
This is the perfect balance of colour and this gorgeous rug gives it the wow-factor...and I'm loving that star pendant!...

Pad Envy....


As Spring has now sprung up on us, there are many things we can do to add subtle hints of colour into our homes. With our lighter mornings and lighter evenings these will really make a difference and get us excited about summer! (Fingers crossed we get one!)

The author of interior design blog colormecarla highlights this perfectly with these photos of her lovely home in Minneapolis....


LOVE this soft and soothing turquoise and pink combination.....





A rustic table paired with black and white adds drama....





I love the different shapes and sizes of the globe, the box files and that sweet turquoise bowl....




 I need everything on and in this side table!!! 
Animal ornaments are so cute and a serious must-have at the moment..




The round mirror, pointed birdcage and soft pink flowers create the perfect textured focal point. I want this house!....





House swap please Carla?!!......
