With the vast variety or models, shapes, patterns and styles, scarves are always modern! You will never be wrong if you choose warm blanket scarf for the cold months, pleated scarf over your blue jeans and monochrome shirts for spring, or delicate cashmere shawl for the cold summer evenings.

The scarf can be styled in various ways, creating different looks. You can wear it to keep you warm and cozy in the winter, or add it to your outfit just as an accessory.

Stylists say in 2021 large scarves are fashionable, especially if you wear them on your hair or over your coat.

Bohemian style and its place in your home

Bohemian or Boho decorated homes are full of colors, emotions, exotic items, culture! The whole atmosphere is carefree, relaxed, and yet very intriguing. Every room, decorated in boho style is unique and very individual. Bohemian style is often chosen by people of art, constant travelers, actors and writers.
Bohemian homes like earth colors, warm colors, also metallic tones in each of their nuances. As base tones you can choose from the gray, green, brown range of colors. These cozy tones make the perfect neutral base and allows you to pile up expressive colors and patterns for your perfect mix. Accent the interior with brighter purple, rich orange or blue, add layers of textures and patterns. Play with the colors and make brave combinations to make your home alive. The same comes with textures and patterns – dream freely and mix different layers.
In regard to Decorative materials the ‘more is more’ philosophy is valid here. Gather items from other cultures, rich in symbols and history. Use your walls to show your favorite item – tapestry, art wall décor, rugs. They should have a little worn look, not shiny and new. Use lots of mirrors, candles, handmade items macramé art, fringe, crochet, tassels, pom poms. The whole feeling is for very cozy and comfortable space.
When choosing the furniture, look for old, vintage items. Every piece should carry special energy and story. The sofa and chairs are covered with plenty of plush, comfortable throw cushions, thick rugs, oversized floor pillows, big comfortable armchairs.
And don’t forget to add plants – Botanicals fit perfectly with bohemian style. They add relaxed vibe and dimension to the room. You will also get more fresh air, and will add one more color, without interfering too much with the rest of your design and making it too loud. Hanging plants are an excellent bohemian addition in any space, from a simple woven hanging basket, to something more ornate and sculptural – a variety of different plants in different scales are an effective way in bringing your bohemian style home to life.
If you are looking for a style that you can truly make your own, Boho might be for you. Use your imagination and express yourself freely to make your home outstand!

How to Mix and Match Throw Pillows

Decorating your home with pillows gives you the freedom to change the décor quick and easy according to your mood, season, or just to experiment with new designs. Living room, family room, or bedroom, every room will shine in a new way with several pillows added.
So why limit ourselves with just two or three solid color pillows, instead of letting our fantasy free in the great variety of patterns, textures and sizes. The good news is that pillows actually don’t have to match perfectly. Often great results are achieved when you experiment. Here are some tips from experts for mixing different patterns and colors, and still have stylish and beautiful result.
First, think about the idea you want to present. Are you fond of more neutral looks, then combine various earth and pastel tones, adding subtle textures or patterns. Or you are looking for something bolder? Then choose brighter colors and extravagant patterns and shapes.
If you start with colors, choose a general color palette, taking into account some basic furniture or wall color or curtains in the room. 3 to 5 colors would be great. In case you would like to add different patterns, the overall vision will still be cohesive if they at least share the same colors.
Here are some examples of color combinations that always look great together:
• Orange, green and purple
• Pale pink, navy blue and sky blue
• Deep red, orange and deep green
• Deep blue, pale peach, pale mint and orange
• Shades of blue and gold
• Magenta, navy blue and mustard
• Different tones of one color
Different patterns can also be mixed and matched. Here the rule is that each pattern should incorporate at least with one of the colors in the chosen palette. Choose your main pattern first, which is generally the largest pattern and the one that contains the colors in your color story. Then, the secondary patterns you select can contain just one or two of the colors. The size of the pattern also matters: choose a scale with different pattern sizes allowing one pattern to dominate. The main pattern should be the largest, and the most subtle – the smallest, like a solid color pillow.
Here are a few pattern mixing ideas for start:
• Geometric, floral and a solid color pillow
• Floral, stripes and a solid color pillow
• Animal print variations
• Dotted, floral and stripped pillow
Mixing textures should not follow strict rules. Play with your imagination and follow your sense for comfort, smooth touch, rough accent texture, softness and fuzzy look. Great number of variations here: faux fur, and velvet, linen, knit wools, playful pom poms and tassels. If you keep your color and pattern theme in mind, you can get creative with touch and feel.
In regard to numbers, odd numbers look modern, white even numbers look traditional. Even numbers give more balanced look, especially on your bed or couch. Sets of similar pillows, such as two or four, give more clean and orderly look.
When buying pillow inserts, you should look for a size bigger than the size of your cover. Inserts have the tendency to deflate easily, especially with extended use, and a larger size keeps them looking fuller longer.
Having this guide in hand, you can easily re-arrange your home, but never forget to follow your inner sense for fashion and comfort.
