I’ve been totally obsessed with the growing selection of home decor at Urban Outfitters. They’ve always had an APARTMENT category, but it’s expanded way beyond what used to seem like a selection of dorm accessories and random GAMES, TOYS & FUN SH!T. (Although that is still my favorite section to browse in the store.) Along with the books. Where else can you find the fabulously pink Fuck This Book, a book about Hot Guys with Baby Animals, or for my husband, a book celebrating the amazingness of Dirty Dancing? Anyways, for those of you with a fun, bold and somewhat quirky sense of style, I’m pretty sure you’ll love Urban’s home offerings. Here are some of my faves:
Reclaimed Wood-Goodness
I love all the reclaimed wood pieces (even if it’s new wood pretending to be old). A great way to add a bit of rustic charm to your home.

Reclaimed Wood Chalkboard $49
Little Boxes Wall Organizer $98
Valet Multi-Hook Jewelry Organizer $49
Industrial Storage Cabinet $349
Bold Bedding
Bedding is an outfit for you room, a uniform that it has to wear every day, so why not make it fabulous!

Assembly Home Dual Stripe Duvet Cover $79-$89
Herringbone Duvet Cover $89-$99
Waterfall Ruffle Duvet Cover $149-$199
Bright Lighting
Colorful lamps are a simple way to brighten, and add a bit of whimsy, to any room.

Gumball Task Lamp $69
Dachshund Lamp $79

Floor Decor
Don’t forget those floors. We walk on them every day and they want to be fancy, too.

Flat Weave Houndstooth Rug $299
Mixed Media Shag Rug $89

Type Treatments
Being a designer, I’m a total sucker for type as decoration. Speaking of which, I still need to hang that vintage type drawer I bought at the Brooklyn Flea…

Acid Etched Letter $10
Cork Letter $12
Ampersand Marquee Light $209
Ziggy Zaggy
You know I love pattern, and chevron seems to be everywhere recently! Not that I’m complaining, it’s a bold and graphic pop!

Zigzag Rug $44
Ziggy Chair $349
Crewel Embroidered Zigzag Pillow $39

I’m a huge fan of UO’s sexy and colorful seating options. Total tushy happiness!
