RAD PLAID – A LITTLE OR A LOT

October 25, 2013

I have come to a conclusion about plaid.  I like a lot of plaid in fashion and a little of plaid in home design. A plaid is a timeless pattern…plaid works on the streets and in interior design.  Perfect for fall!

One of my favorite rooms is the kitchen featured below with a plaid floor!  I have featured this room below because it belonged to my friend and architect Tom Newman.  He recently sold his chic Los Angeles house for several million dollars…I’m sure this plaid floor was a selling point!

Tartan Plaid, Glen Plaid, Prince of Wales Plaid, Tatersall and more…doesn’t matter what type of plaid…I think this pattern is quite rad!

Do you like to wear plaid or decorate with plaid…or both?  If you have steered away from plaid in the past, why don’t you like?  Would love to hear your plaid stories…please leave comment below!

Happy Friday!

    Nice feature. I think the fourth picture was taken in London, though – I have never seen a red double-decker bus in Paris…..

    I can confirm that there are double decker buses in Paris. I hate to admit doing something totally touristy…but I have actually been on a Paris double decker bus once a very long time ago (and I actually enjoyed it…)…oy vey…OSS (over sharing syndrome) kicking in! Lastly, am pretty sure it is Paris in the pictures because I got the photos from Style.com when they were chronicling Paris fashion week. If it is London though, I happily stand corrected.

    Good luck with the contractor. And I love just about every plaid out there.

    I haven’t worn plaid that much in the past, but I want to embrace it this fall [i’d luv some plaid flats]. I love that green plaid dress.

Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. I still have some more things to clean. I organized my garage it looks so much better. I always feel better when things are clean and organized. I hate that I have all of this stuff. I’ve collected different items over the years from flipping a house, product line, samples, and outdoor dinner party accessories. Too much stuff! I’m glad most of it is organized now. Maybe it’s time for a garage sale?? Did you start any spring cleaning projects?

Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. A historic Washington D.C. townhouse fully gutted & renovated. The matte black and white floors adds some drama. While the off white cabinets and the oak island makes the kitchen feel warm and intimate. What do you love about this kitchen design?
