This weekend the new bedding arrived and I am in love. My old bedding was lovely and all, but I’d had it since college. Plus, I don’t know how much Zan appreciated the flowers and excessive pink. I recognized that it was time for a change, and I took charge. I looked for something that was neutral, but still reflected my love for that orangey-pinkish red color that I have always loved. Also, I was going for a more “grown-up” look. Simple, too.
Here is what we have now… grey and pinkish-red. NICE!
Bedding is one of those things that I can’t get enough of. I had 3 quilts and 2 duvets that I rotated in my old apartment. Believe me, I KNOW that’s excessive. But what’s a bedding lover to do? I like the idea of changing it up between seasons, or just if you’re needing something new. Right now, for this new color scheme, we only have the one duvet. And is it ever dreamy. Organic cotton from West Elm. ON SALE. Hearts all around. It’s so soft and cozy. Sleep is even that much better now.
Eventually, I imagine I will get something else to add to the collection, but for now this is perfectly perfect.
Do you like it? I’m digging the simple look. You know, aiming for that clutter free life I’ve been talking about.
More pictures of the apartment soon!
Love the bedding, but love the whole set up more. So NOT cluttered! It inspires me to go purge our bedroom…
That’s so lovely! I’m going to West Elm to check out their bedding right now!
