Despite the fact that it’s Monday, I’m super excited about today’s post. Lately, I can’t seem to get enough bold patterned tile.  It adds so much interest and personality to a space; it’s like an instant dose of sophisticated old-world charm.  Likely not the tile of choice for the minimalist… it takes some guts to take the plunge and embrace these powerful pops of pattern.

Do you have the guts to go bold with tile? What would be your room of choice?

Happy Friday, Everyone!

I’m kicking off the weekend with the eternally chic trend of black and white stripes. Okay… so maybe it’s not a trend since it’s one of the most classic color-patern combos around, but the duo is definitely having moment. Oh, and I’m definitely a little obsessed.

To inspire you give the “trend” a try, here are some ultra chic options to get you started.
