Think about the last time you walked into a room and felt instantly inspired. What was it about the space that drew you in? Was it the bold colors, the eclectic mix of patterns, or the carefully curated decorations? Now imagine stepping into your closet and feeling that same sense of creativity and energy. That’s the power of vibrant interiors and wardrobe staples. Let’s join Annie and Mary Ann for our Sunday faves. What do you think about Vibrant Interiors and Wardrobe Staples: Join the Conversation Now!

You know I love a neutral backdrop for my own interiors but I love color in my accessories. Let’s take a look at a young couple that knows how to rock color and pattern in their designs.

French and French Interiors

I met this darling couple several years ago when we were High Point Market Design Influencers together along with my pal Mary Ann. This dynamic duo hails from Santa Fe and are known for their exhuberant colorful pattern filled interiors. They have just been named members of Tradtional Homes New Traditional Class of 24. I am so proud of these two!

Colorful Cotton & Linen Separates

After my wildly popular post Older and Bolder Don’t be Afraid to Add Color to Your Wardrobe this week many of you have asked where to find more colorful linen at all price points. This is a great time to buy linen as most pieces are on sale. Linen lasts so don’t be afraid of purchasing something that you won’t wear next year as long as you stick with timeless pieces. Spoiler alert the beautiful blue dress is cotton voile (I couldn’t resist)

Shop Colorful Linen Separates

Dillards has a large selection of Bryn Walker (very well made separates here and nearly everything is on sale) I wear an XS in Bryn Walker. I would say her line runs slightly large.

Nordstrom has some great colorful linen pieces on sale here

Banana Republic has some colorful linen items here and nearly all are on sale.

Lands End has some great prices on linen here.

J Crew has a fabulous collection of colorful linen and many in fall colors here

Quince has great prices on linen in neutrals here

  1. I´d like to add Boden for colourful linen. Their linen is beautiful and affordable during sales. But sometimes they change the fit of the blouses from one year to another. And they often have petite clothes. Very important for me.

  2. Love, love, love the work of French and French! Have lived in your current area for many years and also am part of the art community. Keep up the good vibrations!

  3. Loved the colorful post! And this one too! Have a wonderful week ahead Cindy.

  4. French and French not my thing. Clothes not so much ..but the Food and Wine was just what I needed. With a small house we have one couple over and do Happy Hour on the front PORTAL. Plan on 3 …in Aug …so I really was looking,and then found your post SO GREAT.

  5. I love color – always get the most compliments when I wear vibrant colors with my almost completely silver hair. Had to order the Nordy linen dress with ruffle color. Hope it’s not terribly wrinkly. Appreciate the tip!
    Wow – French and French use color beautifully!

    1. Hi Marie

      I love that dress too! I am tempted to order as well. Love the simple ruffle detail at the neckline!

    1. I love what French and French have put together! I went to Nordstrom online and ordered a Boden linen skirt while reading your post. You have so many great ideas in your articles, Cindy. I printed the spiced carrot and whipped feta recipe from Food & Wine to try. I love your articles. Cheryl
