do denim

Denim will always be in - one way or another. Faded, stonewashed, printed - you name it. Part of its appeal is that it's so easy to use. It manages to be relaxed and classic at the same time.

I love how the casual, worn look of the sofa below is in contrast to the minimalist, sleek styling.

I'm obsessed with this look by Marylou Sobel Interior Design. Of course, you can never go wrong adding a splash of red or pink to denim. This washed-out but not too pale denim below is my favourite. 



The unlikely combination of a traditional, classic, deep buttoned Chesterfield mixed with denim is just gorgeous. So clean and unfussy.

These aren't true denims (below), but if you're worried about the way that denim wears, they're great alternatives. I found them at Hertex and they're (clockwise) Parfait, Vidi, Stone Age and Vogue.

I always said that if I have a holiday house I'd want to have a comfy denim sofa.  The ones below just say lazy-days and reading.

Denim combined with the Union Jack or USA flag will always be a thing that works but I really love the soft feminine scheme that I found by Suellen Gregory via Decorpad (bottom shot).

And how stunning is this Toile de Jouy and denim scheme? (I do love me a toile or two).  Cosy, simple and smart all at the same time.

If you're on the hunt for more local denims (or denim look-alikes), you can find the ones below also at Hertex (clockwise: Brushed, Vidi, Stone Age and Esprit).



Last but not least, check out the decadent inky blue denim (that colour! Sigh...) from Mavromac (left - it's called Stonewashed Indigo Cotton from the Indigo Routes range) and Jill from U&G's Jack & Jill range (colours 20 and 22 - right). Jill isn't a true denim but is a darn good substitute (<-- see what I did there with darn #snortlaugh ;) Aaaaand, if you remember from the last post, Jill has more than 40 000 rubs. Baddum tish. Niiiice.

Till next time fellow nerds x
