Friday Five // Trend Alert: Birds of a Feather
The biggest trend on my radar lately? Birds. Bird feet, bird feathers, bird prints, bird sculptures - the list is endless, and I’m totally here for it. Thinking about jumping on to this style bandwagon, but not sure which pieces to buy or how to incorporate them into your decor? Read on for all the details. Your space will be picture perfect in no time.
Sparrow Chic 2. Peacock Power 3. Brass Birds 4. Whimsical Warblers 5. Love Birds
NO. 1 SPARROW CHIC
How could anyone say "no" to this pillow? I don't know about you, but these birds in flight somehow make me feel all happy and uplifted inside. Toss this pretty little pillow on a chair, sofa, or bed, and the chic and sleek sparrow print will be the perfect pop of black and white you never knew you needed.
NO. 2 PEACOCK POWER
One of my favorite stops when I go to the zoo with my kids is hands down the peacocks. I just love their proud struts and drop-dead gorgeous colors. So, why not add one of these beautiful birds to your own decor? This print has the ideal amount of bird inspiration in a classic neutral palette that will blend in seamlessly with your existing decor.
NO. 3 BRASS BIRDS
Need to spice up your bookcase, or want a funky tchotchke to liven up your end table? Why not pick up a pair of bird feet?! Brass figurines are still all the rage, and I think this adorable piece is so fun and unexpected that it's sure to be an instant conversation starter. Plus, it's pretty subtle silhouette-wise, so you can pop it just about anywhere.
NO. 4 WHIMSICAL WARBLERS
I'm always a fan of a pillow with a dose of whimsy - especially when it comes to a bird-themed one. H&M's new line is right up my style alley (and at a great price point, too), and I can't get enough of this print in particular. For some reason, it's giving me major Snow White vibes, and I'm not mad about it at all.
NO. 5 LOVE BIRDS
Oh la la! Love is in the air! I can totally picture this "love birds" print in my house and I'm so tempted to go out and buy it right now. It's got the best blend of no-frills style paired with the romanticism of the French, which means it's perfect for a master bedroom. Plus, it's black and white, which you know is my kind of art.
Overall, the trick to incorporating these adorable pieces into your home is to mix and match a variety of styles and aesthetics, and to avoid going overboard. You don’t want seven things with birds on them in one room. Instead, pop one here or there into your already-existing decor and it’ll be 100% wow-worthy. Cheers!
