We spend a lot of time talking about style in a sartorial sense, but self-expression also extends to our homeware and furnishings. <\/p>\n
\n How we dress the bed, for example, is a matter of practicality and self-expression. Like a good outfit, a well-styled bed sets the tone for the day
\n or night ahead. On the practical side, the right materials can make or break your sleep. Breathable cotton or linen sheets can promote a better night\u2019s rest during the warmer months. Silk pillowcases offer optimal comfort, while a plush, cosy quilt can make us even more excited to crawl in after a long day.\n <\/p>\n
Below, we\u2019ve rounded up eight stylish bedding options to suit a range of tastes and interiors this spring-summer, with a focus on lightweight, breathable materials that will keep you cool but can also be used year-round. <\/p>\n
Citt\u00e0 Essentials Cotton Purl Knit Throw.<\/p>\n
Throws aren\u2019t just for winter. A lightweight blanket adds texture and style to your bedding, while amping up the cosiness on cooler nights. This knitted throw with a chunky, tactile weave will fit a range of interiors: beach chic with earthy tones, modern with neutrals. <\/p>\n
Ecosa Silk Pillowcase.<\/p>\n
If you have yet to invest in silk pillowcases, take this as a sign to do so. The gentle, hypoallergenic fabric is soothing for sensitive skin, helps retain expensive skincare products (it\u2019s less absorbent than cotton) and minimises hair breakage. Crafted from the highest grade pure mulberry silk, these cult-favourite cases by Ecosa are a great bet. <\/p>\n
Linen House Layla Duvet Cover Set.<\/p>\n
These dreamy cotton voile sheets add texture and whimsy to the boudoir. The vertical ruching is simple yet effective, elevating a space with its soft, pillowy dimension. Keep it modern with crisp neutrals, or play up the femininity with a soft, fluffy throw. <\/p>\n
M.M Linen Laundered Linen Duvet Set Olive.<\/p>\n
Crafted from pure European flax linen, this set by \u014ctautahi label M.M Linen will keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. They\u2019re easy to care for, pre-washed and available in a range of colours \u2013 we particularly love the versatile olive green.<\/p>\n
Wallace Cotton Arabella Quilt.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s nothing like florals to herald in the springtime. This pure cotton quilt features a pretty-in-pink peony design, hand-drawn in-house. It also offers two looks in one, with a co-ordinating stripe on the reverse. Decorative and functional. <\/p>\n
Morgan & Finch Jolie Cotton Sheet Set.<\/p>\n
You truly can\u2019t beat a fresh set of crisp white sheets. These ones by Morgan & Finch feature intricate embroidery for a subtle decorative touch. They\u2019re also breathable and lightweight, crafted from 250 thread count cotton. <\/p>\n
Foxtrot Home Tobacco Stripes Linen Sheets Set.<\/p>\n
These stonewashed, French flax linen sheets by sister-owned local business Foxtrot Home are versatile and stylish. The subtle tobacco stripe will complement a range of interiors, from coastal to classic. All pieces are ethically produced and sustainably sourced, too. <\/p>\n
The Foxes Den Green Gingham Linen Sheets and Pillowcases.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re in the market for more luxurious bedding, consider these pure European flax linen sheets (sold separately) by \u014ctautahi label The Foxes Den. This beautiful gingham linen has been stonewashed for immediate softness. It adapts to the seasons and the way you sleep, becoming more supple with every wash. Each piece is handmade to order. <\/p>\n
