I loved chevron stripes for the longest time. But I"m kinda over them. I see them way too often in Pinterest!
-
Woah, that image is kinda huge!
-
Nope. Still love them!
-
My husband won't let me buy ANYTHING with chevron because he is so sick of it. Chevron, mustaches, owls, and burlap are all overkilled these days.
-
Not a huge fan! I prefer dots or stripes!
-
@allison: Oh yeah, forgot about the mustaches. They were cute for a little while. Totally over them now.
-
Since I don't see them a lot irl I'm still okay with them.
-
yeah. they were awesome, but now i feel like they've been overdone.
-
Polka dots are the new chevrons, I think.
-
I think it's one of those things that is Internet over done but not IRL over done.
-
Oh, washi tape too. So overdone. But I still love them. I just ordered a bunch off etsy the other day.
-
I hate chevron, tbh.
-
Yep! Way over done
-
I am totally over chevron! UGH!
-
I won't decorate with it because I think it will be outdated quickly.
-
I was never very into them to begin with. Don't love them and don't hats them.
-
Me me me. It was so overplayed, last year it seemed like every nursery on ApartmentTherapy was chevron-ed out. Like @leialou, I intentionally avoided chevron in our nursery because I expected that it would look dated within a year!
-
I wish it wasn't everywhere (on the internet at least) because I do still really like it. In small doses, at least.
I never cared for the mustache thing at all. I don't get it.
ETA: But I don't care if it will look 'dated' in the nursery or whatver-- I'm not designing a nursery so it will win originality awards or be a big hit on the internet, I'm doing it so I love looking at it, and secondary, for the baby.
-
No.
But I am sick Of the whole moustache thing.
-
@Andrea: agree!
-
I haven't seen chevron IRL much anywhere at all though it is all over the internet.
I love it ! I'm using it in LO's nursery since I find it gender neutral and we are team green.
-
I still love it! I don't see it IRL a lot, so it doesn't bother me.
-
I'm not a fan. I wasn't ever really.
-
i still love it!
-
haha I was never a fan.
-
I love it still!
-
I see it online more than in real life to be honest. I like it in small doses, like LO has a chevron sheet. I just like a variety of patterns, polka dots, stripes, chevron, etc.
-
It's cute but it's everywhere, so I am over it.
-
I'm tired of seeing it everywhere too. I have one chevron pillow that i bought 2 years ago, but that's it! It's nice in small doses, but chevron overload sometimes makes my head hurt.
-
Was never a fan!
-
I was never a fan!
-
I love it! I guess I don't see how stripes can be "overdone" - chevron has been around for a long time. I'm not a fan of pattern overkill, but I definitely like chevron stripes in small doses.
-
I like it in moderation - as in very moderate. I would never wear it, have it in my home etc. but a few accessories here and there, no big deal.
-
I still like it, but like some pp I don't see it too much IRL but definitely a lot on Pinterest! I will use it in LO's nursery in smaller doses that aren't too big of investments
-
i still love it on clothing and will buy cheap fashion pieces with it, but am a little more wary of decorating my home with it, because that's more permanant for me :). still love it for packaging/paper/etc!
-
@tysonja: ditto! Love it for packaging and paper stuff!
We have a chevron throw for the nursery and a chevron bib. I think it's really cute but totally overdone on Pinterest. But agree I don't see it IRL too often and eventually it will no longer be a fad, but the design is a classic. Like leopard, Greek key, stripes...trends come and go but these striking graphics will always have lasting power. Now the mustache thing will not. Lol but I think it's cute for baby boys!
-
I also don't see it used a lot IRL so I don't mind it
I wouldn't use it in my own home decorating though. I'd wear it in an accessory, like a scarf or a pair of flats!
-
Nope, still love it! A big component of LO's nursery is chevron
-
I like chevron in muted colors - like white and a really light blue grey - or in a really bright color but in small doses. At first I was the opposite. I hated it, couldn't understand the charm, but then I saw it used in some nurseries and homes in subtle or interesting ways.
I would love to own a little chevron in my life. Like a crocheted blanket. Hmm... Rainbow chevron anyone?
-
I see it online more than in person, I do have a couple chevron pillows on my couch and I still love those! But I wouldn't do a wall in it since I think I would get sick of it. My sister just did her nursery wall in it, and it's a lot.
