The Home Decor Showdown: H&M Vs. Zara

I mentioned yesterday that I will be moving towards the end of this month, & I have got decorating on the brain big time. I am already so in love with my new place, yet I am adamant that it be decorated PERFECTLY. Basically, if it doesn’t look right out of magazine or Apartment Therapy, I am not going to be a very happy camper.

I never thought I’d say this, but currently all clothing shopping is on hold, cause right now it’s all about home decor. Right now (this may change) I am really feeling white, lucite, black, clean lines, open space, color coordinated coffee table books, skulls, animal prints, & a little bit of boho-chic flair…

…which basically sums up everything in both the H&M and Zara Home collections. Until a few days ago, I didn’t have any clue that H&M and Zara even had Home collections, & now that I do- I’ve pretty much died & gone to interior design heaven. My poor poor bank account.

Here are some of my favie faves from each collection: 

My H&M Home Faves:
+ Gold sequin placemat
+ Rose & deer ceramic plate
+ Black glass vase
+ Rhinestone cushion cover
+ Printed wooden hangers
+ Squirrel S&P shakers
+ Teacup candle
+ Burlap storage basket
+ Fur throw blanket

My Zara Home Faves:
+ Gold rim glassware
+ Silver world globe
+ Gold flatware
+ Lucite nesting tables
+ Snakeskin pillow
+ Leopard print hyde rug
+ Monkey teapot
+ Crocodile skull candle
+ Skull incense holder

Sooo… what do you think H&M or Zara? There is no way in hell I could choose just one…
