west elm + stripes = love
Have you looked at the goods at West Elm lately? I am pleasantly surprised with how many things I adore on their website. My absolute favorites have a common thread: stripes.

Apparently I’m also still loving gray and mustard.
You can see more at West Elm.

I got the “Start Fresh” 2012 catalog in the mail the other day and I loved pretty much all of it. Of course there’s not a stinkin’ West Elm in St. Louis (or a cb2 or Ikea or any of it — it’s probably all the better because it saves me hundreds of dollars each year at a minimum). Have a great weekend. May it all be gray and mustard stripes as far as the eye can see. Cheers!

I’m loving the stripes as well…In fact…earlier this week I just purchased the mustard striped sheet set you have posted in the first pic
Can’t wait to put them under my slate pin tucked duvet cover I got from WE…super excited!!!

I just got a West Elm catalog in the mail – and was surprised by how much I loved it. way to be consistent in your taste ; )

Yes! I’ve been on there a lot recently looking for a new bed spread for our new king bed. I love all the stripes. Something about them is so clean and makes me giddy inside.
Anna @ Take the Side Stree
I agree! I’ve had my eye on those striped duvet covers for a long time now… so cute.
Ashley
Hi Emily, I wanted to let you know the link to WE isn’t working! Maybe it is just my computer.
Also, LOVE the stripes
Kate
Just yesterday, I unearted the west elm catalog under a pile of stuff that I stashed away literally minutes before our family arrived before Christmas. I, too, am madly in love with most of the stuff in the catalog. West Elm = sleeper.
Melissa
LOVING the stripes!
Elizabeth
Too funny. I’ve been window shopping at WestElm.com for the past few days and I too loved. everything. stripes! Just can’t make up my mind on what to buy!
Emily
The west elm yellow stripe shower curtain is on it’s way to my house! I’m cutting it in half to make curtains for my son, Sky’s, room – cheaper.
I’m a yellow stripe girl {as indicated by my blog background} and I seem to gravitate to it on EVERYTHING. I used it when Sky turned 2 in December and am going to re-prupose the fabric to back one of our bookshelves! LOVE LOVE LOVE stripes! And West Elm toooo.
PS – I love the new blog layout but it’s looking really funky today! The main page just has a bunch of links on the left side and I have to scroll wayyyyy down to see the post. Weird!

I am absolutely into stripes right now too! That feather gray they have has become my January color-I just can’t get enough of it! Thanks for posting this-I bought a shower curtain in the collection you listed, and for $30 it just can’t be beat! I’m loving the clean look of the blog too-something about January just calls for minimalism!

I’ve had about all of those exact items in my shopping cart for a week now
So cute and fresh!

Ive only ever ordered a duvet from WE but love their catalog and their prices arent that bad. I loved all the stripes I saw in the newest catalog too. Those hand towels? Amazing!

I saw those striped monogram hand towels in their store the other day and they are cu-ute! Great roundup of fresh spring finds!
Amy Leishman
Oh thank you for sharing… I have been waiting for the hand towels to go on sale… they are just what I wanted to add a splash of color to my new white subway tile bathroom…. (with gray grout of course)… I too can’t get enough of the grey and yellow stripe combos…
Jenna
I gave my sister the gray and white striped favorite throw for Christmas and she loves it! Not only does it look great, it’s so soft too.
jami nato

LOVE IT! i just got my navy and white striped comforter in the mail!! so funny! i wanted to order everything but thought with stripes you can only have so many!! didn’t see that bath mat though!! hmmm!
Katie Waddell
Agree! Right before they came out with the striped gray shower curtain I made similar curtains for my living room…..great minds think alike I guess!
Erin of Salvaged Whimsy
Checked out the West Elm catalog yesterday before my daughter destroyed it…my favorite thing was the fringed hand towels. Not sure I’ve seen fringe on many handtowels.
Meghan
THANK YOU! Stripes are a million time s better than that silly chevron pattern from last year! Glad THAT’S over with…
Heather
Oh my! I am in the middle of making some changes to the decor and I am into stripes right now… I had not thought to look at West Elm. THANKS!!
and I am loving the new look on your site. white = clean. makes me rethink my design a bit…..
Misty
I love the stripes. So fun and fresh. I also really love the new design of your blog. What a great way to start the year fresh. Thanks for always sharing such great tutorials and sharing in what you do. I love your style and design. I just wanted to say thanks. I hope you have a most fabulous day. You are great!
Mo
I am sooooo thankful you posted this. I have been wanting to update my guest bathroom and have been on the hunt for a new shower curtain to use as the focal point of the change.
As soon as I saw the gray and white horizontal striped curtain on their website, dontcha’ know I quickly whipped out my card and ordered it?
Rachel Postma
I thought the same thing when I was looking at their catalog yesterday! I want that duvet in grey for my boys room so bad, or is it navy…they’re all fabulous.
Cati
I just found your blog by chance from Pinterest (for the printables, actually) and saw this post – that striped duvet!! omg – it’s now MINE! And, it’s on sale this week! =) thanks!!
Laura
I’m a big lover of stripes, myself. I received an email from West Elm this morning about their free shipping for today only, so I HAD to put in another order!
