Montage: From Boho to Bollywood

Boho chic may be as passé as Sienna Miller’s latest affair but Hollywood’s love affair with films à la India (c’est toi “Slumdog Millionaire”) [see this recent WSJ article for more Hollywood/Bollwyood collabs], I’m thinking designers will be tempted by the colors, forms, iconography, and overall free-spiritedness of South Asia culture and style. Here are some photos plucked from the pages of beloved magazines and blogs showcasing a strong infusion of hippie chick goes to Mumbai with grace and restraint.

Get the Look: Grey + Green Wallpapers

Here are samples of the grey and green wallpapers I am considering for the wall behind my bed. There is not much wall space, so it needs to be a small scale pattern. The room is large, but dark… I should really take a picture of the dreary room and post it. Maybe later. The headboard is a crisp white cotton duck. And I want to paint the walls green. Let’s not get into the furniture now. Would love opinions, especially from the design types out there. Here are the swatches (I’ll add the sources tomorrow). And, dear husband, should you see this, please let me know what you thinks via a post. (So much more civilized than face-to-face combat, don’t you think?)
