NANA CHIC

Kelly Osbourne used the term "Granny Chic" to describe Zoe Deschanel's look at the Golden Globes last night and on the season finale of Million Dollar Decorators, Nathan Turner used the term "Nana Chic" to describe Mary McDonald's home makeover.  Check out this link to get a personal tour.  It is fabulous.

In the new Living Etc, Amanda Holland's home is featured. She uses the large scale wallpaper pattern Rugosa Garden by Designers Guild in her master bath.  This pattern definitely has a grandma vibe but she pairs it with Orla Kiely's Striped Petal pattern to keep it fresh and modern (sorry for the iphone pic).

Here are some other favorite nana chic living rooms I found in my Pinterest files.  What do you think?  Could you rock Nana Chic?

  1. I was going to say no, it's not really my style, until I got to the second to last picture. That wallpaper is amazing!

  2. I am nana chic! I love design and have changed 4 or 5 styles over the years. This time around, vintage is fresh and looks young

  3. Who said you can't use the words "Nana" and "chic" in the same sentence. It is all a matter of balance. Love the rooms and the wallpaper! Just goes to show, you can mix anything if you do it right. Great post.

  4. A little nana chic goes a long way. I love when it's paired with clean lines and modern pieces. That blue sofa with lucite coffee table really is amazing.
