Style Basics: Chambray + Sheepskin

So I started thinking the other day about how much I love my chambray shirts. That I could (and want) to wear them every single day and how they are the perfect layering piece. I then started wondering what the equivalent in the home would be.... and thus a new series is born!

Chambray Shirt - Old Navy / Dress - Topshop / Heels - Zara

Necklace - Pink Mascara

Chambray Shirt - Anthropologie / Pant - ASOS / Shoes - Zara

Necklace - BaubleBar

Chambray Shirt - Piperlime / Sweater - Forever 21 / Jeans - AWear

Necklace - Anthropologie / Shoes - Dolce Vita

So how is a sheepskin like chambray shirt? You can literally add it to any room as a layering piece and it goes with all types of decor. I have never met a room that wouldn't benefit from a little sheepskin! Throw it over a couch, chair, bench or on the floor. I have one over my couch right now, which also doubles as a dog bed for the little one. I think I might need a couple more.

Do you see the correlation?

IKEA: Textiles

While at IKEA, I found many new textiles that would work perfectly for our home and our budget.

I knew before going that I was going to be purchasing curtains for the living room, I just didn't know which ones. When I saw the MERETE at $20 for a pair, my decision was made easy. They make such a huge difference! We hung them right below the ceiling to make the room appear a little taller.



Another thing I knew I wanted was a sheepskin. I had a sneaky suspicion that Ellie would love curling up on it for naps and boy, was I right! She loves it!



While browsing through the textile department, I came across these awesome ethnic black and white pillows. They are a really thick cotton and I knew they would go perfectly with my Chiang Mai beauties.



I am not really sure if this counts as a textile, but I figured I would throw it in. This fun, geometric doormat only set us back $5!!!



And the best for last... I saw this 7x9 rug and knew it had to be mine! It goes perfectly under our new dining room table, which I will be revealing next week. {No, it isn't from IKEA!}
