Argyle as interior decor. I’m obsessed.

Classic patterns — stripes, plaid, polka-dot, and argyle — are like good friends. But lately, argyle risen to the top of my favorites.

I’m obsessed with argyle.

I don’t know if it’s fashion and interior decor that has dictated my newly recognized love of argyle. It’s the chicken-and-the-egg design question. I honestly don’t know which.

It can be a coincidence that my argyle obsession blossomed with other designers, as they have been slowly introducing it in a variety of products, beyond the classic sock and sweater.

But it can also be the demand from like-minded designers that has grown the opportunity to acquire plaid in ottomans, chairs, and so many other furnishings. And my favorite is finding designers experimenting with the pattern as wall art, flooring, and other decor surprises.

Whatever the case, I’ve been pinning some of my favorite plaid decor looks on Pinterest. And here are a few that are making me smile.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‣ MyFixitUpLife Ayaka 22" Square Green Velvet on Linen Throw Pillow
Love this abstract-ish argyle green velvet on linen pillow from LampsPlus
‣ MyFixitUpLife The Argyle 8 Light Foyer - Ceiling - Lighting
Even lighting can have an argyle look.
‣ MyFixitUpLife Wood diamond pattern from This Old House
So maybe this is actually a wood diamond pattern, but it gives me a nod from the land of argyle, from This Old House
‣ MyFixitUpLife Argyle as a wall accent
Argyle as a wall accent is quite charming, and a smaller commitment than an entire wall.
