Classic B&W Stripe

Happy Valentine's Day!

Speaking of love...what's not to love about a little classic black-and-white-stripe? 

Eclectic Living Room design by Kansas City Interior Designer Nichole Loiacono Design

 

It's a pattern that's been around forever, I know, but it's such a graphic, memorable pattern. Do you remember this space of Kirsten Hollister's in Oprah magazine a few years back?

And how about this striped headboard? Simple, bold, and beautiful.

This one (below) of Jenny's from LGN just might be my favorite - I love everything about this photo, from the gallery wall to the throw pillows to the modern slim b&w striped upholstery on a vintage settee.

I know stripes can sometimes look a little circus-tent-ish. I think a narrower stripe helps to avoid that, though.

I hope your day is wonderful. I've got kids a little under the weather (again) (or "still," really), so we get to cozy up at home today. Just, y'know, not too close...

Happy Valentine's Day.
