When I’m browsing interiors blogs and homewares magazines, the one thing I always look out for is what’s been done to the floor. As renters, we’ve always been stuck with whatever awful carpet the landlord has provided (I dream of the day we can actually have bare floorboards, possibly even whitewashed…), so I’m a big fan of covering as much of it up as I can with a good rug.
There are heaps and heaps of good places to buy rugs from; IKEA sell great graphic ones, and Urban Outfitters have got a huge range of lovely eclectic styles, but my favourites came from somewhere I never expected – Lotta from Stockholm.
Famous for their fabulous range of incredible clogs (have you seen the aubergine T-bars? Amazing!), Lotta also stock a range of Pappelina rugs, full of geometric shapes, pastels and bright colours. There’s even an Aztec-esque pattern in there – look!
I’m particularly taken with the bottom left style, ‘Klas Red’ – I think it would look amazing in our teeny tiny hallway. Every rug is available in a range of sizes and prices, so no matter what size or shape your room, there’s something for everyone. See the full range here – and then go and have a look at the clogs. And bags. And, err, jewellery. Ahem.
Don't make me click that link! DROOL!
Click the link, click it! Haha.
Just discovered your blog, love the leaf rings on that site and the clogs are much cheaper than Swedish Hasbeens!Thank you!
Ahh, welcome! Thanks for saying hello, the clogs are ace aren't they – and I can cheerfully confirm that they're really comfortable too!
I feel like you are my freaking personal shopper – you keep finding all these great things! I have zero budget for rugs in my life right now but these are swoontastic. New header looks super too! x
Thanks lady! Since I've stopped actually shopping, I seem to spend a lot more time stumbling across things I really want! Gah! x
