Hello and Happy May Day. If you are on holiday today, in your neck of the woods, I hope you are having a wonderful time.
Nautical stripes, in my book, are a staple. This season though, they seem to be extra popular. Another fashion trend that can easily be translated into our interiors…
mix with one of the season’s brights such as orange or yellow
a small piece can make a bold statement
plays well with other patterns like polka dots and florals
or, keep with neutrals for a classic look

I love stripes! I think I like them best with a bold color, but neutrals are nice too {and generally how I wear them}.

I love stripes too for both interiors and apparel. Really like the look of the stripy rug and the sweater looks gorgeous too xx

I wasn’t a fan of stripes until after I started blogging! I think I am going to get striped sheets! TO answer your question the nail polish in today’s post is from Sinful Colours, the shade is Midnight blue.

Beautiful pics today – I am a huge fan of stripes. I love mixing them with florals, and the bed linen in the 1st photo looks great with that splash of bright yellow. xxx

I have so many stripes in my wardrobe but strangely, I haven’t used any in my house! That obviously needs to change.
