Thrilled that Julie asked me to guest post for her, especially so since she was such a big influence on me and support for me in starting up my own blog. So to honor that, I wanted to do a post dedicated to her love of the chevron!Okay so it's been around for a while, and you may even worry that we've seen the last of it. But I beg to differ! I have been so pleased to see an assortment of reinterpretations and reinventions of our zig-zag-y friend. Take a look at the reimagined products and inspiration shots I've collected
as Exhibit A:
Exhibit B: Missoni -- the company that made famous the zig zag -- has been around since 1953! That's over 50 years of popularity, and a posh one at that. So fear not, my fellow chevron-lovers; it's here to stay.
I'm currently trying to convince my partner to paint the toilet with this pattern! I'm loving zig zags I think its the new stripe!
ReplyDeletei don't think i'll ever bore of chevrons! x
ReplyDeleteI', so glad the chevrons aren't going anywhere - it is a pattern I love that can work in so many ways!
ReplyDeleteMuch love,

Thank you Julie for the opportunity to share with your readers a few of my visual ramblings! I am still a fan of the zig zag, so it's nice to see I am not alone. ;o)
ReplyDeleteyou find the most amazing images, Erika! great round-up! ox
ReplyDeleteOmg I was almost tired of zig zags and you have made me love them again. I don't even have an ipad and I might have to buy one so I can get that Ted Baker case!

That cake frosting is too cute! I've always loved zigzag from afar but thought they were too much for my own space. And then somehow chevron ended up on my dining chairs and I love it. Small doses works magic for me.
ReplyDeleteErika, seriously?!!! I want to live in your brain. It's jam packed with pretty. And I can't even pick what I like best...the earrings, tile, ipad case, paintable wallpaper! It's all so good.
ReplyDeleteI love the black and white. A girl friend and I counted all the people wearing b/w stripes last night besides us at dinner. So chic!! Love love love!!
