Traditional vs Modern – Shop Your Style with Me!

Do you like to decorate your home with either traditional or modern furniture and accessories? Come along with me as I shop for both styles at The Brick! I’ll share characteristics to look for for each style, and I hope you’ll get some inspiration along the way.

Disclosure: This post is sponsored by The Brick. As always, all of the opinions here are my own.

Earlier this week, I published a video and blog post about how to find your decor style with 3 tips and 8 common decorating styles. You can check that out right here to help nail down your personal home decor style! Once you’ve figured out your style (or combo of style!), this next series is for you!

I’m so excited to be partnering with The Brick over the next several weeks to present a Shop Your Style with Me series on YouTube. I’ll be taking you along with me as I shop for furniture and accessories for all of the 8 decor styles that I’ve mentioned in my decorating style video: traditional, modern, farmhouse, Scandinavian, industrial, coastal, boho & minimalist.

Today’s Shop Your Style with Me video is all about finding traditional vs modern decor items.

Do you have a traditional home decor aesthetic?

Look for: neutral colours like beige and white, intricate details like tufting and carving, symmetry, patterns like florals and damask, porcelain accessories, landscape art, brass accents

Do you have a modern home decor aesthetic?

Look for: neutral & warm colours with pops of bright accent colours, clean lines, “less is more”, exposed woods, chrome & glass accents, geometric patterns

Now, watch the video below & come along with me as I shop at The Brick for traditional vs modern decor!
