I can’t get enough of the ‘ethnic’ trend right now. In fashion, design, and decor, stunning color combinations and pretty, intricately woven threads are mixing with bohemian eccentricity and breathing new life into both styles. I recently thrifted a cute “woven” bag that I love, but am saving my pennies specifically for an authentic Guatemalan beauty like the ones below. Let me tell you, the designs are endless. Generally no two are alike. They’re definitely investment pieces, but I can’t see me getting sick of one of these any time soon, not to mention the amount of money I’ve spent on lower-quality pieces over time…
I actually wear a lot less color in everyday life than my style posts + pinterest boards show. but then I get lost in color, pattern, texture. and then I think, maybe it’d be best to stick with something like no. five, subdued but no less of a statement piece. Are you into the woven trend yourself? Sources below.
