Switching out the warm, winter bed for fresh, new bedding in the summer is part of many people's changeover routine. Away goes the thick duvet and out comes the coverlet and thin blanket. If you are by the ocean, the duvet may be a necessity, so folding it into thirds at the end of the bed looks nice and neat. Perhaps your master bedroom needs reviving, and sometimes the guest linens need a refresher. Block prints, tiny patterns and solids in hot pink, blue and lavender were big spring news.

The new block-printed Ramona duvet and Euro sham from
Serena and Lily is a robust take on a damask, Indian-style.
The coordinating Kerala sheet set in bright and soft pinks is an abstracted Indian floral that looks boho chic without going off the deep end.

JR by John Robshaw that is perfect for dorm rooms and the like. At a 200 thread count, it offers a lot of style for an approachable price point.
Perhaps a fresh spring green damask calls to you. Ludoli, all-over bedding pattern from
John Robshaw adds visual interest without overwhelming other prints in the room.

If you can't get enough of block printing, geometrics and fish, then
Allem Studio is for you. A varied Sea Green feels right at home with the fish pattern. The bedding is made by Sewa, a women's collective in India.

As usual, Matouk's creative collaboration with Lulu DK yields phenomenal results. This spring saw the introduction of Lyford, a white solid fireworks-of-a-floral on perfectly hued Crocus (lavender), Ocean (a French blue) and Geranium (a coral) ground.

And as usual, patterns co-mingle together. Here we have from top to bottom: Star, Cove, and Lyford.
And in Geranium with coordinates.
If florals make you happy, this tight bloom called Petals also from
Lulu DK for Matouk is a great choice.
The freshness of this Star and Cove combination from
Matouk in pale blue and white is wonderful.

Sometimes adding a ditzy, small pattern can re-invigorate and freshen existing white bedding. This small geo is Frette's Orchidales print through
Garnet Hill.

A small undulating pattern, Pink Waves, from
Plover Organic is a pattern that also mixes in well with all white.
