Beloved Bamboo

Beloved Bamboo
Lately, bamboo has been popping up everywhere from clothing to accessories to home decor.  This timeless and elegant grass is the inspiration behind Alice + Olivia’s Spring 2014 collection as well as serving as the foundation for Gucci’s New Bamboo collection which marks its’ iconic bag.  This polished and uber sophisticated tote is the ultimate chic wardrobe staple.  And let’s not forget about these suede bamboo thong sandals…another Gucci masterpiece that would go with everything and take you anywhere.  Suddenly, I’m rethinking my Waterford china because this simple and understated Juliska setting is classic with a modern twist.  I realize I can’t decorate my entire house with these stylish stalks but who could choose between this chair, table, pillow or lamp?  I definitely plan on tweaking certain spaces here and there to give my home a fresh, updated and contemporary feel.  Are you a bamboo enthusiast?  If so, which pieces would be your personal picks?
