We love how this unknown person brought the bedroom to life with great modern art, clean lines and (of course) our Draper Stripe Poppy bedding.

A new feature on the blog...we're calling it Snap Trend. It's all you need to know about design trends in 5 seconds. Think of it as the US Magazine article of trends. Here's a snap from Paris and the shows:

#1: PUT A HEAD ON IT The trend of putting the head of an animal on well...anything.
#2: OCTOPUS The octopus is the new "it" girl in design!
#3: LOVELY BONES I saw skeletons everywhere....they are the new curio must have.
#4: PHOTO REAL This trend uses the digital image to make a surface appear to be natural/real, like this "wood-plank" wall. It's also used to make the surface look old or worn with texture - I call this "digital distressing."
#5: MAXI TAXI This trend celebrates anything stuffed in any setting.
#6: ANATOMY CLASS Slightly creepy, but the obsession with old school medical models, things in formaldehyde and glass jars has become quite the movement.
#7: THE MOUSTACHE The new "bird" in design.
#8: STITCH IT A throw back to our needlepoint days.
#9: TASSELS I saw tassels everywhere!  In decor, jewelry, fashion...
#10: CABINET OF CURIOSITIES This trend won't go away....My fave is the form it took in the Alexander Mcqueen exhibit at the Met.      

I love to travel and I love a good hotel. Our latest family vacation was to Tulum, Mexico. It has been dubed the new St. Barth's, but it was amazing anyway. As always, I booked my getaway on Tablet Hotels and they asked me to report back on Be Playa. Check out the feature here, and a few additional snap shots from Instagram below...

The decor is very vintage-modern with rustic edges.  Very Undecorated.

The gorgeous pool was a nice respite from the sandy beach when we needed it. 

Love the found pieces used as decor.

The beaches were amazing.

But my favorite thing was the tacos.

Did you see Design*Sponge this morning? If not get yourself over there ASAP to and check out our Spring Bedding Look-Book! All the new goodies will be arriving in April - get excited! (And stay tuned for pre-order opportunities!)

Let us know what you think!

Yesterday one of our Facebook fans posted a design question on our wall - we opened it up for general discussion among our design savvy followers, and have quite a lively convo going!

Here's the question: "I bought the Big Floral Citrine rug and am looking to plan my living room around it! Which fabrics coordinate?"

And here's the rug - with some of the suggested fabrics. What would you recommend?

1 - Shadow Trellis // 2 - Ikat Dot  // 3 - Shifted Stripe // 4 - Ikat Trellis // 5 - Almonds // 6 - Masala

We've featured Erin on the blog before - back when she lived in Seattle. But now she has a fancy new loft in San Francisco's SoMa neighborhood and a whole new look to her bedroom, we love it!

Which do you like better, her Seattle digs or the new SoMa loft? 

Get the Look:
Batavia Dove Duvet Set 

We're really loving this bright nursery, photographed by Mark Lund, so much so we put together our own version of the room.

The mix of bright, patterned accents with more neutral bedding give the space a fun, but not overwhelming look. Don't you think?

Shop the Look: 
1 - Elephant Frame
2 - Gio Animals Wallpaper in Grass
3 - Geometric Knit Blanket
4 - Grey Squares Fitted Crib Sheet
5 - Zig Zag Lapis Rug
6 - Century Crib

How sweet is this birthday party inspired by our Garden Blossom pattern?

We've seen some cute parties in the past, but this one might take the cake!

We loved seeing our Crosby Library Table in this month's issue of Real Simple Magazine!

Big thanks to the Real Simple team for the sweet feature (we're blushing!) 

We spotted this How You Dwell in an Apartment Therapy house tour. At first it was the great vintage DwellStudio napkins (or, perhaps a fun DIY with some of our fabric) on her table top... but the discoveries continued!  

Sarah also has a few DwellStudio Pillows accenting her bright, white bedroom and we spotted a familiar looking book in her room as well... 

A pair of DwellStudio throw pillows accent Sarah's sofa...

No DwellStudio here... we just loved this wall!

Sarah is clearly a supporter of the No Rules Approach to Interior Design - we spy Undecorate in her bedroom! 

Sarah, we love how you dwell!
