3. Designing with a Dash of Kentucky Cool
Lifting the Bar with Kentucky-Inspired Design
Kentucky has had a well-deserved reputation for producing classic American furniture and decor for generations. Now, it’s time to show what the modern Kentucky look can do. Break away from the traditional mold and use the state’s design strength in a number of interesting ways. Here are just a few:
- Make use of wrought iron. Found in abundance in the Bluegrass State, wrought iron can create a hefty and stylish look. Pieces with a distressed finish and lovely ornamentation will always stand the test of time.
- Incorporate trunks, buckets, and toolboxes for storage. These pieces have a nice rustic appeal, and best of all, they can be upcycled to give them a truly unique identity.
- Choose furniture with a sturdy, organic look. Solid wood bodies and comfortable armchairs in warm, muted hues are indicative of Kentucky’s signature style.
- Organic lamps and pendant lights provide a welcoming feel. Look for local artisans welding metal into sturdy frameworks and producing eye-catching, dynamic results.
By infusing your home with just the right mix of Kentucky cool, you can combine tradition and modernity to create a beautiful, inspired setting. Whether you’re an interior design enthusiast or a novice decorator, you’ll be right at home in the Bluegrass State.
4. Celebrating Style and Southern Heritage
Embodying the South
The southern United States has a culture that is distinct and deeply rooted in tradition. It’s known for its hospitality and its fashion that’s one of a kind. Celebrating both the culture and fashion of the south is a must.
People down south embrace a sense of style that’s unique, whether it’s a more provincial look or a vibrant, contemporary one. It exudes an energy that’s modern-yet-timeless, rooted in deep-seated traditions. Here are some ways to pay homage to the region:
- Introduce southern-inspired silhouettes into your wardrobe, like flowy sundresses and breezy jumpsuits.
- Try wearing warm colors like orange and red – they represent the vibrant spirit of the south.
- Incorporate denim, whether as a shirt or an ode to the classic southern gentleman.
- Accessorize with traditional elements like bold jewelry, bright scarves, wicker handbags, and floppy sun hats.
Invoking the region’s rich spirit through the wardrobe can refresh our appreciation of the heritage and culture of the south. It’s something both native and out-of-towners can enjoy, no matter their personal style. Dress up your signature look with a dash of southern charm – you won’t be sorry. Maddox and Jesse have truly created a skill set to provide any equestrian lover with the perfect outfit, while making sure they stand out in the crowd on the day of the Kentucky Derby.
