I’ve always enjoyed a well-made bed. It’s truly an everyday luxury in my opinion. And after a long day, there’s nothing more inviting to me than slipping into fresh sheets.

Seeing as how much I love proper linens, I was shocked when I realized how long it had been since I bought myself new bedding or even towels.  I mean it had been years!  So when Lauren Ralph Lauren Home invited me to do a bedding refresh the timing couldn’t have been more perfect.  

It’s true that I was long overdue for a refresh.  I’d say that it was partly due to the fact that it’s hard to find a line of high quality bedding at an approachable price; one that doesn’t sacrifice timeless style or fresh designs.  Believe me, I’ve looked.  I had thought about splurging on linens, but every time I was about to pull the trigger I would second guess myself.  I mean if I’m spending an entire paycheck on linens then they better be ones I’ll love forever…am I right!!

That’s why I was so thrilled to discover Lauren Ralph Lauren Home’s collection of beautiful bed linens.  Specifically the Ralph Lauren Kelsey Bedding Collection.  They’re soft, luxurious and really comfortable.  They’re perfect for the every day, while still providing that elevated feel in our bedroom.  

As I selected the pieces for my bedding refresh, I quickly decided that I’m done with duvets.  Done.  I know they’re easy, but in their place I’ve rediscovered the beauty of comforters, coverlets and quilts; combined, they offer dozens of opportunities to switch up how the bedding looks plus they add polished layers to any bed. It’s those details, and that added thought of various textures and patterns, I’m finding, that really tie the space together. Not to mention they just look better.  My duvet never laid well on the bed and the duvet insert would always get stuck down in one corner or the other.  

As for choosing the styles and colors, I gravitated to a mix of cool blues and creams, with a pop of red.  If you remember, I always write about the importance of incorporating a pop of red in design. Red always warms any space up and makes a room feel complete!  I also mixed in various complimentary colors and prints: ticking stripes on the shams, this pattern on the sheets , and a soft silky blue on the Graydon quilt which might be my favorite piece in the entire collection.  It’s light, yet cozy, and beyond soft!

For the towels I decided on classic white for myself and blues for the guests.  And I must add, the towels are deliciously plush, and give me that feeling of being at my own at-home spa every time I use them!

I’m incredibly pleasedas is the hubswith this timeless refresh on one of our favorite spaces.  Tell me, are you looking to update your nest anytime soon?! Are you Team Comforter or Team Duvet?  Truly, MKR
