mySTYLE :: southwestern appeal

There many different terms for what I feel falls into the "southwestern" trend category.
Southwestern. Navajo. Aztec. Ikat.
They all embrace the same earthy, native quality.
I remember being obsessed with all things southwest when I was a kid.
I think our frequent family trips to New Mexico and Colorado,
helped to seal this "trend" as a lasting one in my book.

Love this wall hanging.
Depending on the size, I would most likely hang it over my bed.

This rug's muted colors and bold print would be wonderful in a kitchen or bathroom.

Um, I'm going to have to add this iPhone case to my ever growing list of ones I need want.

In addition to the fabulous moccasin boots in my wishLIST post,
these loafer style moccasins would be a staple in my closet.

BTW - unbeknownst to me at the time, there are multiple southwestern inspired items on that list. ;)

Ah, the turquoise statement ring.
I really, REALLY want one.
Fun fact - turquoise has been my favorite stone since I was in elementary school.

I'm not sure if these are towels, or scarfs, or blankets, but whatever they are they need to be hanging in my home...stat.

The dreamcatcher. 
Such a cool and unique piece of folklore.
And, not to sound like a complete and utter dope, 
but they can just be SO PRETTY.

I swear Anthropologie has some of the prettiest bedding.
 This Navajo inspired set included.
Love the sweet color scheme.

This skirt is just gorgeous.
And mixed in with the sparkly top?
Fabulous!

I would love to have this hanging as a wall print in my hallway.
Talk about a palette of my favorite colors.

Love, love, LOVE the fabric/beads woven through the beachy hair in conjunction with the muted feather earring.
I would wear this ALL the time.

These faux feather earrings add a little extra pizazz and punch to the typically earthy feel of native inspired items.

Not only am I a fan of cardigans,
but cardigans in fun prints and colors?
Get outta here!

Even though this is a folding chair,
I would gladly replace all of my dining room chairs with a set of these.
Beautiful!

What do you think of the southwest trend?
Yay or nay?

peace, love, and all things sparkly.
