Give Chintz a Chance

<div style="text-align: center;">Chintz is back and better than ever. No, we aren't talking grandma's dated floral couch here people (although I just know there is something fabulous about even that), but a modern, fresh take on this traditional fabric. The term Chintz means any printed calico from India, usually cotton and glazed, but today we use it more casually to describe any floral fabric.<br />I've rounded up some of my favourite Chintz fabrics and some inspiration below!:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmLLJG4OSvUZ8tcDodt2-8B_CIkC8RlwAz69dmScMZMEuGOx2o3-PsFTj2w81Q4tB9iIkgJqzDXTzDfwPn63ICjbKdVATGWk-orWwVFkiYBCRBhGzAk-D8_8vVBPvTzNm-GX6XaHKPA00/s1600/PYNE+HOLLYHOCK+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmLLJG4OSvUZ8tcDodt2-8B_CIkC8RlwAz69dmScMZMEuGOx2o3-PsFTj2w81Q4tB9iIkgJqzDXTzDfwPn63ICjbKdVATGWk-orWwVFkiYBCRBhGzAk-D8_8vVBPvTzNm-GX6XaHKPA00/s1600/PYNE+HOLLYHOCK+copy.jpg" /></a></div>Fabric via <a href="http://www.lonny.com/magazine/August+2012/MjOUVzsleVV/2#46" target="_blank">Schumacher</a>, Inspiration photo via <a href="http://www.lonny.com/magazine/August+2012/MjOUVzsleVV/2#46" target="_blank">Lonny Mag, August 2012</a>.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz1kL0SQ1uK7hw-SefqMPKN3zcjPmzxLStKGaKJ4GC6Sot7QKe36T7pU2whnc-3SLIb1hGrydc_l5rLUOCkr3H3TlucLD8Y7OX0i1TRfhKOqFBEZI1ZAhHk0UTF_tL3IXECTqeK2bn9yY/s1600/ORANGERIE+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz1kL0SQ1uK7hw-SefqMPKN3zcjPmzxLStKGaKJ4GC6Sot7QKe36T7pU2whnc-3SLIb1hGrydc_l5rLUOCkr3H3TlucLD8Y7OX0i1TRfhKOqFBEZI1ZAhHk0UTF_tL3IXECTqeK2bn9yY/s1600/ORANGERIE+copy.jpg" /></a></div> Fabric via <a href="http://www.designersguild.com/fabric-and-wallpaper-showroom/view-all-collections/zephirine-fabric/orangerie/orangerie-rose#.UyxxIIWwW1M" target="_blank">Designer's Guild</a>, Inspiration Image via <a href="http://www.astoriedstyle.com/index.php/2013/01/gebhardt-guest-roomoffice/" target="_blank">A Storied Style</a>.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEcJXJsKzR6s2CO03kUgNlsxnxJIHi0BPXaUytFUuKPtL2POcsy34CzUCuw3_1cB_m401FYgV54D7HCOBk2wCBXaLo5kpn0CTPIPdGjENGwz2XLAcc2lAF9fQuj6QL9MyKFJwwu3X7owM/s1600/elizabeth+chintz+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="442" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEcJXJsKzR6s2CO03kUgNlsxnxJIHi0BPXaUytFUuKPtL2POcsy34CzUCuw3_1cB_m401FYgV54D7HCOBk2wCBXaLo5kpn0CTPIPdGjENGwz2XLAcc2lAF9fQuj6QL9MyKFJwwu3X7owM/s1600/elizabeth+chintz+copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Fabric via <a href="http://www.fschumacher.com/search/ProductDetail.aspx?sku=175500" target="_blank">Schumacher</a>, Image via <a href="http://www.vogue.com/magazine/article/estate-of-grace-tory-burchs-southampton-home/#/magazine-gallery/tory-burch-house/9" target="_blank">Tory Burch in Vogue</a><br /><br />Now tell me, do you like chintz?

Coral Jeans

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Like many of my fellow bloggers, I've been loving the colored denim trend. I couldn't decide which color I wanted, until I stumbled across the perfect coral pair at Aritzia. Unfortunately, they were over $200. On trends, I refuse to spend alot of money because you never know how long they will be around. Luckily for me, Garage had a nearly identical pair for only $40. You can bet I snapped those up. Here's how I plan on styling my new pants: <br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><div style="margin: 0pt auto; width: 600px;"><div style="position: relative;"><img alt="Coral Spring" border="0" height="600" src="http://embed.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/cid/47756783/id/Lvt-WIWOQAuavxACrGVaYQ/size/y.jpg" title="Coral Spring" width="600" /></div></div></span></div><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Have you jumped aboard this trend? What color would you choose?<br />xo<br />Tiffany Leigh</span>

So feminine and delicate. I love the incorporation of Pantone's colour of the year, Tangerine Tango, in such a temporary form, yet it still steals the show. The upholstery on the chair is perfect, the floral pillow on the setee compliments the desktop accessories so well, and don't even get me started on the tutu inspired chandelier! I could go on and on! Photography by Monic Richard for Style at Home Magazine. <br />Do you love it?<br />Tiffany Leigh
