Chic Chinoiserie Accents

Chinoiserie pieces bring an exotic sophistication to a space giving it a worldly, classic feel. Adding blue and white porcelain tableware, a pair of fretwork chairs, asian-print upholstery, or large ginger jars are some easy ways to add Chinoiserie accents in a room. Mixing these Chinoiserie pieces with other design styles are some of our favorite ways to create unique and eclectic rooms. Check out some of our new Asian-inspired pieces here now available on One Kings Lane.

NY Fashion Week: Fall 2014

Every year, twice a year, the worlds hottest and most renowned fashion designers gather in New York to showcase their newest collections at the New York Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. The Fall 2014 runway shows have come and gone and we couldn't help but pick up on the ever so classic white trend that was highlighted this year with clean, simple lines in fitted menswear and long maxi dresses. Here at SWI Vintage, we love to pull inspiration from the fashion world when designing.

Seeing Red

Red has always been a super hot color, from red wine to the red carpet this color always makes its mark. It is a classic, bold, attention-grabbing color that is super hot in both fashion and in interiors. Bring home design and fashion together with touches of red in all different shades. We love the look of adding one big statement piece in red to give a room a pop of unexpected color.

Late Summer Trend Alert-Indigo Accents

Indigo is a deep, rich, bold and elegant color. What else can we say, we love it! It adds instant drama to any outfit, room, or piece of furniture. Ingido ikat print and chambray are some of the most popular looks right now, and this color is perfect for transitioning between summer and fall (not that we are ready for that yet!) Here are some shots of indigo that inspired us.
