New Year, New Bedding!

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day all!  I hope many of you have the day off, and are enjoying doing anything but working. 

Recently I cleaned out our linens, and realized I have a very sorry collection of sheets and bedding options considering I am now an adult and not a college kid.  The search is on!

I like the pattern of this set from Macy's, which just happens to be on sale.

Overstock usually has a pretty good selection of bedding.  I found this 500 thread count sheet set for 39% off, and the stripes are a nice little detail since we have solid comforters.

You also can never go wrong with a classic black and white pattern, such as this one from the Bedding Superstore.

Now I just need to convince the hubby we need new bedding!

Zara

I need these items from Zara added to my closet immediately!  

Though viewable online, you can only purchase in stores (at least in the U.S.).  Zara, please open a store on the Peninsula or South Bay!
