One more shot of Rita’s wonderful space–remember when it was published by the original Domino? It’s one of my all-time favorite bedrooms. Rita used the same throw in her earlier New York apartment as well. In Rita Konig‘s old New York apartment the decorator honored her English roots with a plaid throw at the foot of her bed. Instantly up your cozy factor with plaid throw blankets. They’ll keep you warm in the winter and help disguise tired and worn upholstery. Note the gorgeous curtains in Lisa Fine’s “ Mughal Flower” textile. Here is another example of layered rugs in a bedroom by Veere Grenney. The photo was snapped in Pentreath’s dreamy Dorset country house. Above, British architect and interior designer Ben Pentreath has layered a vintage rug over his wall to wall sisal. I’m a big fan of the layered rug look and so are the English.

(Photo: François Halard for Vogue)Ī shot of the full room with its handsome stone fireplace and rustic exposed beams-so English, so cozy! (Photo: François Halard for Vogue) I also adore the room’s William Morris “Willow Boughs” wallpaper-it truly brings the outdoors in. Above, a patterned sofa in the English country home of author Plum Sykes. I love the Miramar sofa from Serena & Lily, the Carlisle sofa from Pottery Barn, and the Bedford sofa from Williams-Sonoma. While we can’t all afford the dream George Smith design, there are excellent English roll-arm sofas available elsewhere. Invest in a timeless English Roll Arm Sofa. I’m also crushing on those pale pink walls. Above, in Veere Grenney‘s country retreat, sisal can be seen wrapped around the fireplace. Or if you’re renting, simply treat yourself to a large natural fiber rug or two ( Overstock has great affordable options). Yes, please! (Photo: Jake Curtis for House & Garden) Note the slipcovered sofa (very English) in Colefax & Fowler’s bowood print complete with a ruffled skirt. Above is a charming space painted in Farrow and Ball’s Breakfast Room Green.
These fine English paints are great quality and have some of the loveliest shades. Below, I’m sharing my secrets on getting the English country house look in your own abode. Between the spectacular royal wedding and my love of all things Jane Austen, I can’t get enough of the cozy, lived-in look you see in the great estates of England. If you share my love of the English country house decorating style and want to get the look in your own home, this is the post for you.
