Just In: IKEA PS 2014 Collection

This April IKEA presents its IKEA PS 2014 collection, its eighth iteration. The range, created by 14 young designers from around the world, is for people and homes on the move, with limited space and the need to easily pack up and go. IKEA PS 2014 collection includes pieces for every room in the home, with lightweight materials, bright colors, and multifunctional design. Corner cabinets, a  side table with built-in lighting and magazine racks, a standing wall shelf with knobs, and a wardrobe that can be personalized are among the practical offerings.

Shopping Trip: Marimekko Boston

While I was at the new Marimekko Boston flagship to see the Spring 2012 collection, I also photographed a ton of its amazing home furnishings. I love the jewel-tones of the glassware, and the punchy patterns of the dishware that still seem as fresh now as they did in the 1960s. Here’s an Instagram tour of the shop, from a home decor perspective. It should give you some good idea for holiday gifts, but stay tuned for Marimekko gift guides in the coming days too!

Just In: DVF Studio Bedding and Bath Debuts

One year ago, in the midst of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York, Diane von Furstenberg launched her DVF Home collection of textiles, bedding, and tabletop. The VIP lounge was decked out with her goods, which are sold through Bloomingdale’s and Neiman Marcus. This week, a new, lower-priced line, DVF Studio, debuted at Bed, Bath & Beyond. Scroll down for a sampling of her bold, mixed prints.

New DVF Studio bedding and bath products at Bed, Bath & Beyond:


Native River
Inspired by Diane von Furstenberg’s travels to Bali. 100 percent cotton duck ‘Native River’ print in green, yellow, white, and taupe reverses to 100 percent cotton sateen  ‘Hearts of Palm’ print.

Chain Link
Balances retro glamor with contemporary graphic punch; pure DVF.  100 percent cotton duck ‘Chain Link’ print in navy, yellow, and white reverses to 100 percent cotton sateen  ‘Shibori Flowers’ print.

Palm
Florida meets India in the colors of sea and saris.  100 percent cotton duck ‘Palm’ print in aquamarine and white reverses to 100 percent cotton sateen  ‘Rhombus’ print.

‘Palm’  and ‘Summer Paisley’ sheet sets.
100% cotton sateen with a 250 thread count

In case you missed them over the last year, Bloomingdale’s still stocks DVF Home bedding (and tabletop).

 = = =

Vintage DVF print duvets are available at DVF.com. I love these. The patterns are from the ’70s, and were resurrected last year in clothing and accessories. I just discovered these duvets. She’s actually introduced a another Vintage Collection for spring (dresses, pants, tops, jumpers, etc.), in a whole new crop of patterns from 1974.

More DVF decor: DVF-designed rooms at Claridge’s Hotel in London.

Finally, for those of you who made it to the end, in DVF bedding, tabletop, and luggage happens to be on sale at One King’s Lane today!  If you need an invite, email me at stylecarrot [at] gmail [dot] com.
