I am feeling very Bohemian lately and want to add a few Bohemian bedroom images along with images of inspiring bohemian textiles to stimulate your boho chic senses.

Topsy Turvy Dinning

A colorful, topsy turvy dining room designed by Timothy Corrigan. Beautiful, exquisite, ornate, jewel colored, royal decadence. Luscious fabrics, wallpaper, furniture and that chandelier!! Could I handle this kind of decoration every single day of my life? of that I’m not sure, but as far as novelty value goes this really hits the nail on the head. This is what I imagine it would look like inside a Genie’s bottle.

Iris Apfel Manhattan Apartment

My heart surged when reading Architectual Digest I came across the weird and wacky, eclectic and bohemian Manhattan apartment of style icon Iris Apfel.

But style is like charisma. You know it when you see it.

by Iris Apfel

This fact is evident the minute you enter her three-bedroom Manhattan apartment, a Park Avenue aerie she shares with her husband, Carl, that looks a little as if the Collyer brothers had moved in with Madame de Pompadour. To the right of the front door, two stone pedestals piled with art books flank a Baroque console topped by a chinoiserie mirror. Eighteenth- and 19th-century dog portraits line a corridor leading to the bedrooms, and in the boiseried living room, an antique carving of a French mountain dog holds a platter brimming with costume jewelry. Everywhere there are exquisite French chairs, painted Genoese chests, antique paisley shawls, New Mexican santos, and much, much more.

I am so excited to share these images, so much fun, style and color in the one space!

Pilgrim Lounge

Welcome into the colourful and wonderfully kitsch lounge room of Pilgrim Lee from Draw Pilgrim! She is vibrant, fun, colorful and with a sense of humour, I really love this style.

Dark Eclectic Living Room

I just adore everything about this modern, eclectic, boho chic living room.

Dark and traditional moody walls combined with off the wall, colorful and downright bizarre elements, such as those awesome chrome coffee tables!

Amazingly gorgeous timber flooring that is almost on the rustic side.

Great big shiny rainbow rung and crushed velvet couch in gunmetal gray.

Cool chrome coffee table in letter shapes.

Black doors make a great impact!

This living room works very well with it’s dark walls and the fact that the big floor to ceiling windows drench it in light.
