Joy Bryant, a model-turned-actress who currently stars in Parenthood, has a wonderfully chic abode that she has furnished primarily at the flea market in Los Angeles. Her style is eclectic, music-inspired, and delightfully bohemian — a great vibe to emulate if you want to transform your dorm or apartment! Want to get inspired by Bryant’s laid-back, vintage decor? Read on!
Bring the Outdoors In
Bring some shabby-chic into your room with any of these vintage-inspired pieces, which can be used to hold anything from plants to pencils and pens. Colorful DIY mason jars can be used to organize your desk, and a mismatched collection of buckets and jars makes a great windowsill display.
Tees On Display
A classic Marilyn Monroe poster is made instantly more interesting when you forgo the typical Sticky-tac and use a pants hanger to display it instead. The hangers are small enough to display greeting cards or smaller posters as well. Add a soft floor pillow or two to tone down the mood of the room, and invest in some classic bamboo hangers to show off the great album art on a vintage band tee.
Pro tip: Wooden hangers are a room essential for me. As skinny and useful as Huggable Hangers might be, they don’t quite maintain a shirt’s shape like wooden ones do.
Bookshelf Accents
Of course, underbed storage is usually well-utilized by college students. However, many don’t think to put a bookshelf under their lofted bed. In fact, an under-bed bookshelf can be a surprisingly practical storage option, especially if you let the edge jut out a bit to be used as a nightstand. You can either buy a low-slung bookshelf or simply turn a smaller one on its side. Accent with a few sweet pieces, like a metal cut-out with your initial, or these gorgeous vintage lotus bowls, a nod to Bryant’s affinity for brass metal.
