Reviewing Bedding Collections In 2008/2009

bedding accessories

Bedding collections offer you pre-packaged style, atmosphere and distinction. The stylishness of luxury bedding cannot be overlooked, of course. You want something that's timeless, classy, indicative of all that you have achieved, while being relaxing and attractive. As we get older, we're also looking for quality. You want items that won't fall apart in the washing machine, that feel cool against our skin in the summer and cozy, encapsulating warmth, in the winter. You want a high thread count, down comforters and a satin sheen on our sheets. Yes, you will take the pillow shams and the dust ruffle, and naturally, the matching curtains too. As our lives become more defined, so do our tastes become refined. So let's take a look at some of the most appealing, luxurious bedding collections for 2008/2009, shall we?

"Sex and the City" fans may recall Charlotte's fun red-and-white, poppy and ivory silk charmeuse bedroom set. The exotic design is one of the bedding collections from designer Ann Gish and can be purchased for $200 to $810 at Neiman Marcus. Gish is known for her attention to detail, quality construction and experimentation with various textures. She likes to layer her comforter sets with various velvets, high-thread-count cottons, silks and taffetas. She'll mix a bright and bold with a neutral to bring a room to life. Her "Ready To Bed" collection offers 100% silk at a reasonable price. These bedding accessories are fit for royalty!

Orange is "in" for this year's bedding collections and no luxury bedding proves that more than Mystic Valley Traders' "Turtle Bay Mandarin Collection." The exuberant, bold, burnt orange accent pillows complement a gray bedspread trimmed in orange and gold. The best part about Mystic Valley Traders is that they offer fine bedding, but the items are made from certified organic linen and natural cotton, which makes it an eco-friendly selection. There are other choices to meet your style as well. For instance, the red, black and gray geometric "At the Ritz" spread shouts class from the art deco era with tuxedo and gala stripe prints, while the "Out of Africa" collection brings a room to life with animal patterns. You can find these collections and more at www.mvtbedding.com, retailing from $1350 to $1850.

Luxurious bedding collections never truly go out of fashion. Beds are such large pieces of furniture and instinctively the eye is drawn to them; therefore, it's critical that you choose a sheet and comforter set that defines your sense of style, opulence and decadence. Your bedroom is your sanctuary. It is a place for quiet reflection, for unwinding and enjoyment of sensuousness and comfort. Don't cheapen your experience by simply grabbing a Bed-In-A-Bag from JC Penney when you could be sleeping in five-star resort comfort every night.
