Stripes are so eye-catching. Every time I come across home decor images online or on Pinterest, I immediately stop to look, and occasionally, drool.
Stripes are so versatile, and thanks to some innovative designers, easy to re-invent.
No matter if your taste is ultra classic and conservative….

Or if your taste is wild and colorful…

There will be stripe for you. In the past few seasons, stripes have had a major re-invention. From broad, horizontal stripes in muted shades for curtains, to wild painted stripes on the wall, stripes are at once classic and modern.
I’m constantly drawn to stripes, even though I’ve been too chicken to try a bold striped wall, a striped floor or even a piece of furniture in my home. But what better time to try than now?
I love these bold, black and white striped areas that go all the way to the ceiling…so unexpected!

But in reality, I’m most likely to wear stripes. From nautical-inspired classic tops to cute dresses, you can’t beat a stripe in the summer!

And just for giggles, if you are into nail art, stripes are all the fashion manicure rage right now. Happy stripe hunting!
