Sundress To Bedding: Let Your Style Influence Room Design
Every girl knows that that the key to completing her summer wardrobe is the perfect sundress. From running the city with her friend group to running simple errands in her neighborhood, the ultimate main character moves in fashion. The sundress, acting as a tribute to the divine feminine while providing comfort and luxury, honors womanhood from the inside out. And when the sundress isn't on, the loungewear is.
Just like life in the outside world, fashion and design are revered principles in a girl's home. This is where we create a world of our own, a dream realm within which our unshared secrets, deepest emotions, desired manifestations, and innermost selves are free to exist. To truly bring this world to life, personal expression is a must. The best source for this summer's bedroom inspiration can be found right before our eyes: the sundress.
Addressing the Room
Elements of Design
First, we must briefly analyze the major points of connection between bedding and sundress selections. Both items share the same basic components of design: pattern, color, texture, and fabric. Within each category, there is a wide range of varieties to choose from. This oftentimes feels like an overwhelming task for many of us who are "just a girl", but fear not. This blog will break down the options for you.

Pretty Patterns
As we all have plenty of practice shopping, we know that a material's pattern is the first to grab our attention. There is a unique story to be told in each individual pattern. Botanical imagery transports our spirits to a whimsical dewy garden in full bloom, with vibrant hues and revitalizing energies. The thought alone is relieving, as we can live out our cottagecore and fairycore dreams. Stripes signify a primp and proper mindset, combining color and line for an artful yet clean atmosphere. This iconic and timeless pattern is perfect preparation for a trad wife life à la Nara Smith, or a vintage vibe for the more elegantly curated setting. In the same sense, checkers and plaid evoke a sense of tradition. Taking notes from vintage aestheticism, these antique patterns remind us of simpler times. Perhaps patterns aren't for everyone, and we should consider ditching the concept altogether. In this case, solid colored fabric is the ideal choice for a minimalist aesthetic. Giving way for a clean cut look free from distraction, solid fabrics draw attention away from pattern and instead place emphasis on color.

Curated Colors
The summer - it's like a reward. We've survived another depressive winter and are therefore gifted with the best that mother nature has to offer. Constant golden hour sunlight, delightfully fragrant blossoms, and a profound sense of physical and metaphorical warmth, all to be experienced in the company of a girl's best friends. There truly isn't a better time to be alive. The most intriguing gift of all is a peak in the visual senses through bursts of organic color. Drawing on the inspiration of summertime colors will assist us greatly on our journey to developing the perfect sundress-inspired bedroom.
Scenes from nature display a number of color palettes for a girl to choose from. Imagine a sunny day at the beach. The mind is immediately drawn to a palette of bright and breezy hues like azure blue, sandy beige, crisp white, with pops of coral pink and sunny yellow. A coconut girl couldn't be more excited. A road trip through a thick forest inspires a more earthy and tranquil palette, featuring deep greens, mossy hues, earthy browns, and hints of sky blue. Earthy girl realness. Galavanting through the city brings a city girl mix of bold and sophisticated colors such as sleek black, slate gray, vibrant reds, and electric blues, with accents of metallic silver and gold. Inspiration for summer colors, whether for bedding or sundresses, can be found throughout our young summer days.

Tantilizing Textures and Touches
The final consideration in our journey for the ultimate sundress inspired bedding is texture. The texture of bedding is crucial. It directly affects comfort, sleep quality, and overall relaxation, making it essential for creating a soothing and inviting sleep environment. Be inspired by your favorite sundress in your textured bedding decision. A ruffled texture adds a hint of femininity and sophistication along with a trendier look. If Lana Del Rey is your muse, then you know that bows of ribbon and lot of lace are a must for any coquette girly! Regardless of your core aesthetic, there is a texture of bedding just right for you.

Favor your fabrics
Sensory feelings could not be more important for a sensitive girl in the heat of the summer. Fabrics play a major role in the comfort one experiences, both throughout the day in her favorite sundress or during her relaxation under the sheets. When choosing a fabric, first address the temperature you prefer during your sleep. For the coldest experience, opt for a cooling tencel. This fabric is designed specifically for the task of cooling the body in bed. If you prefer a cool rather than cold feel, you can select a natural linen. The next warmest would be cotton, available in both the original or stretchy options.
This brings us next to the topic of smoothness. If feel is your main concern, velvety or silky fabrics will be your best bet. For both a warm and plush sleep, velvet provides the perfect combo. For a colder and silkier feel, choose luxury/silky fabrics with a smooth sensation.

In Conclusion...
As we discussed, the sundress celebrates femininity and self expression while making the perfect summer outfit. Fashion and design are essential values in the life of a girl, and there is no better place to practice than in the bedroom. The act of transforming the bedroom into a summer sanctuary of personal freedom must properly address pattern, color, fabric, and texture. This summer, let the essence of the sundress inspire your bedroom decor, crafting a haven that mirrors your true self.
