Style? what? which?

I find it difficult to stick to one style when decorating. There are so many nice things out there! I have tried shabby chic but got bored of it, I love the minimalistic nordic style but it is slightly too cold so I always end up filling spaces with those unecessary out of fashion ornaments ( I have an eye for that industrial look too when I think of it).

I do not think I am alone ending up with a mixed style. I am quite picky about what I like so sometimes people say my style is cool others just raise their eyebrows. I always end up mixing authentic and new retro stuff, old and new furniture, modern chic and kitch. Some might call it an eclectic or bohemian style, but it doesn`t really matter what you call it does it? If you like it and your home feels like just that- a home- well in my opinion you are successful. Let`s face it- overstyled homes are boring. (One should not be afraid of spilling that red wine late at night.)

This style tells me this is a home- not a showroom (ok- maybe it is a mixed showroom home...).
One day maybe I will be this good at mixing!
