Simply Styled for Summer

Erin Boyle is an evangelist for simple living. At the beginning of summer, we asked the Reading my Tea Leaves blogger and author of Simple Matters about her bedroom rituals. 

 

 

Erin Boyle.  

 

 

What colors are top of your mind right now? 

Blues and browns and greys with tiny spots of green. 

 

 

What inspired your bed/bedroom décor? 

Our bedroom is really centered around the antique bed that I rescued from my parent's attic when I was in my early 20s. It's a pretty dominating piece of furniture, so we keep everything else super simple. 

 

 

What's on your bedside table? 

A small antique lamp and right this minute, a copy of Mohsin Hamid's new book, Exit West. 

 

 

What are your sleep rituals? 

As the mother of a two-month-old, right now they're pretty erratic. Any minute of sleep I get feels precious.

What colors have you picked from Flaneur bedding and why?  

Classic Supima white. I'm a white sheet person and I love the soft warmth of Flaneur's golden white. 

 

 

Do you consider yourself a Flaneur? Can you recount a Flaneur-like experience you’ve had recently? 

Sure, whenever I can be! This morning I took my kids for an early morning walk and my two-year-old pointed out every hellebore that we came across. Flanuese-in-training!
