8 New Bathroom Decor Trends You Need to Bring Home

With new decor trends popping up left and right, it can be easy to feel like every room you just decorated already needs to be re-decorated. However, we’ve had our eye on a few design trends that look like they’re going to stick around for a while. The eight trends (and fab finds!) below will keep your bathroom looking stylish and on trend for more than just a season. From adding earthy textures to bold patterns to your bathroom, most of these trends can easily be a weekend project. Below, eight inspiring new ideas.

Do you really want one whole wall dedicated to one giant mirror? One of the latest trends in bathroom design is ditching the giant wall-mounted mirrors and opting for something smaller, usually with a pretty frame. Having the extra wall space allows you to add cool light fixtures, hang art or work around awkward architectural features. (via Rue Mag)

1. Hexagon ($229): Geometric mirrors FTW. This antique brass mirror will make all your mornings shiny and bright.

2. Lacquered Round ($498): Don’t be square! For the trendiest of reflections, go for something round or oval (bonus points if the frame has some metallic).

3. Metal + Wood ($199): Keep it natural with a simple wood and metal mirror. This particular one would look great in an all-white or marble-filled bathroom.

Unique Pendant Lighting

There is nothing more fun than being greeted with an unexpected light fixture in the bathroom. From modern, geo-inspired lights to vintage-inspired pendants, unique lighting makes your bathroom feel much more luxurious and upscale. Just make sure the piece you choose is wet rated before you install it. (via Smitten Studio)

4. Vintage-Inspired Wood ($129): These gorgeous, retro-looking pendants have just the right amount of character. Paired with some boho patterns and complementary wood accents, they’ll be the perfect addition to your space.

5. Geometric ($104): Pretty prism pendants (say that five times fast!) are exactly what your bathroom needs this summer. Put one on each side of your mirror, or place two at varying heights in the corner above the tub. Either way, your bathroom will be super on trend.

6. Nautical Rope ($80): This one’s for all the nautical-obsessed. Adding a rope pendant to your bathroom will definitely raise your decor to the next level.

Copper Accents

Copper is having a major moment right now, from fashion to home accessories. And yes, it looks stunning in the bathroom too. This warm metal brings a touch of vintage to any space, and there are lots of fun ways to introduce it to your bathroom. Think: pendant light, hardware or even a small accessory. (via House of Jade)

7. Copper Caddy ($18): If you don’t want to replace all your faucets, it’s easy to bring copper accents into the bathroom with copper baskets like these. They are great for storing linens or filling with all the essentials you need for spa night.

8. Candle ($13): Every bathroom needs at least one candle, so you might as well make it a cool copper one. We wouldn’t mind having a few of these all over the house.

9. Pendant Light ($35): A caged pendant light can look overly industrial at times, but this copper one is chic and shiny in all the right places.

Exposed Plumbing + Industrial Pipes

You’ll either love or hate this industrial-inspired trend. But if you think there is something charming about exposed pipes, you can incorporate the trend with a classy metallic faucet or even DIY some towel racks using copper piping from your hardware store. (via Decoholic)

10. Reclaimed Paper Holder ($78): Over or under? Whichever way you roll, this ultra-cool TP holder offers all the trendy utilitarian vibes your bathroom is craving.

11. Floating Shelf ($65): You’ll never regret adding more storage to your bathroom. This modern-yet-industrial shelf is just the thing to hold all your bits and baubles.

12. Towel Rack ($109): You could DIY your own pipe towel rack, but this Etsy find has a lot of character at a pretty decent price. Check out the Max and Lexie shop for even more rad copper finds.

Trendy Footstools

The bathroom isn’t just for a shower, sink and toilet anymore. Current trends are all about bringing non-traditional pieces of furniture into the space to create more of a cozy, spa-like feeling. Stools add extra seating, softness and warmth to the room. They can also be a great place to store all your spa-night essentials. (via Emily Henderson)

13. Simply Wood ($98): Use this little stool to burn a candle while you take a bath, or put it in your guest bathroom and pile towels on it. You could also use it as a seat to watch your significant other brush their teeth.

14. Luxe ($349): For the luxe bathroom, this sheepskin stool will add the texture and glam you’ve been looking for. Pair it with neutrals like gray and accompanying metallic accents for a top-notch look.

15. Mid-Century Modern ($169): Perfectly tufted and oh-so cute, this mid-century stool will add a nice bit of soft color to your bathroom.

Clawfoot Tubs

This one might not be a quick weekend project, but if you’ve had your eye on a freestanding tub for a while, now is the time to make it happen. Whether your look is modern and minimal or boho and vintage, there is a tub out there calling your name. (via Better Homes and Gardens)

16. Vintage Clawfoot Tub ($4200): We are going to go ahead and file this away on our “Dream House” Pinterest boards. You know, just in case we happen to come into some extra spending money someday…

17. French Blue ($2705): This powder blue beauty is a more modern take on the clawfoot tub. We could definitely see ourselves soaking in here with a glass of wine and some good tunes.

18. Black + Gold Clawfoot Tub ($1050): You know what would complete that luxe bathroom we’ve been talking about? This gorg black and gold tub.

Natural Wood Accents

Going along with the spa theme, all things natural and neutral are trending in the bathroom. From butcher block countertops to reclaimed wood, earthy textures will transform your bathroom from functional to magical real quick. (via Domino)

19. Tub Caddy ($149): Looking for a sturdy tub caddy? Look no further than this reclaimed wood masterpiece. The only thing missing on this one is a glass of our favorite red.

20. Cedar Bath Mat ($128): Maybe it’s time to ditch that musty old rug and replace it with a simple and modern wooden mat. The teak smells amazing and you’ll get a mini foot massage every time you step out of the shower.

21. Shelf ($109): Store all those bath salts and soaps in a reclaimed wood shelf like this one. You could even buy a few and mount them staggered for a fun architectural element.

Bold Rugs

Adios boring bathroom floors, hello striking statement rugs. From bright colors to elaborate patterns, this trend will make a statement in any sized bathroom and is a great way to bring color into the room without painting. (via My Domaine)

22. Geometric Inspired ($112): We heart triangles here at Brit HQ. And we definitely wouldn’t mind having this rug in our bedroom or living room either.

23. Bright + Boho ($35): Beautiful color and pattern is just what your dingy bathroom floor needs. Be sure to stick with neutrals throughout the space and incorporate a few pops of color to tie it all together.

24. DIY Patterned Rug: Even if you can’t afford a fancy new statement rug, you can still add an epic pattern to your floor with a little DIY action. Tape off the coolest pattern ever and then paint an inexpensive IKEA rug in all your favorite colors. We suggest throwing some non-stick pads to the bottom to prevent your bathroom from turning into a slip-and-slide. (via Brit + C0)

Emily in Paris season 4 was the buzziest season yet, and for good reason. Emily's in Rome, Camille was never pregnant, and Gabriel's hair went from très hot to tragique. In addition to the viral response to Gabriel's new hair, season 4 left me pretty sad because after four years of waiting for Emily and Gabriel to get together, they almost immediately break up — and actor Lucas Bravo is just as confused as we are.

Carole Bethuel/Netflix

“The ‘sexy chef’ was very much part of me in Season 1 and we grew apart season after season because of the choices he makes and because of the direction they make him take,” Lucas Bravo told IndieWire while promoting Mélanie Laurent’s Freedom. “As they made him kind of unaware of his surroundings, of the dynamic, always victimizing and always being completely lost in translation and oblivious to anything that is happening around him and being manipulated by everyone, it kind of became not fun for me to shoot or to see a character I love so much and brought me so much, being slowly turned into guacamole. I really grew apart from him.”

Honestly it makes me really sad that a character we all love so much is becoming unrecognizable. But at the same time, it makes me feel a little bit better, because we're not the only ones who feel like Gabriel has changed. And while Lucas has done what he can to bring those early-series aspects of Gabriel back, he says "there is only so much I can do in the limits of a script.”

Netflix

“I tried for seasons to bring nuances but we don’t have much liberty on set," he continues. “It makes me question if I want to be part of Season 5…because my contract ends at Season 4. I really want to see if Gabriel gets back to his fun, cheeky, playful, alive self. Because three seasons playing melancholic, sad, depressed, and lost is not fun anymore. It’s a comedy, everybody is having fun around me, everybody is jumping around, and I’m just slowly sinking into god knows what.”

Say what now?! If Lucas Bravo leaves Emily in Paris, I truly don't know what I'd do. Gabriel is my favorite character on the show! (Or at least, early Gabriel was.) Seeing him move from 30, flirty, and thriving to someone who's consistently in the middle of an existential crisis doesn't make sense within the world of the show. And even though Lucas thinks the show has a "lack of risk," he still loves everyone involved.

“I love the show. It started everything for me. I love the show and the people in it," he says. "With saying that, I feel like I am not being nice or grateful, but when you love something you want it to be…you want the best version of it. I’m not going to lie, I’ve been frustrated with the direction by character is taking. But we’ll see where it goes. The show is not over.”

Just like the show's iconic costumes are all about expression and fun, here's hoping Emily in Paris is able to bring some life back into our favorite chef. Because if not, it sounds like we could be nearing the end of the show's most popular would-they-won't-they relationship. Fix this Netflix, I beg you!

What do you think of Lucas Bravo's dilemma? Do you miss season 1 Gabriel? Let us know in the comments and check out the latest Emily in Paris season 5 news.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie created reality TV gold when The Simple Life debuted in 2003. Their antics were outlandish, but we couldn't help repeating their iconic phrases like "That's hot" or "Sanasa" during random moments in our own lives.

It's no secret the two didn't really act that way, but their 'characters' left a huge mark on a generation of millennials. "I knew what I was doing but the whole world didn’t, so it was kind of frustrating to me to be perceived in that way because it’s not who I am at all," Paris told People.

Even though she may have felt judged, it seems that Paris Hilton realizes how many people actually loved The Simple Life because she and Nicole Richie are teaming up to film a reunion special that'll debut on Peacock as we speak! Here's everything we know so far!

When did speculations about 'The Simple Life' reboot begin?

NBCUniversal Media

Peacock first shared a video clip on Instagram that hinted something special involving Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie is coming in May. A nostalgic TV set with a black and white screen can be seen while our favorite duo's voices can be hearing saying, "Sanasa, Sanasa."

Peacock captioned the post, "New Era. Same Besties. Coming soon to Peacock," and fans could barely contain their excitement. Even celebs like Naomi Campbell and Katy Perry commented on these hot vibes.

Bravo

Then Paris Hilton took to her own Instagram to share more about what fans could expect. She said, "As some of you may know, we are doing a reunion special to celebrate 20 years of our show The Simple Life and it's been so much fun."

Actress Selma Blair shared how much she's looking forward to this by commenting that she's "living for this."

So are we!

What was 'The Simple Life' about?

The Simple Life/20th Century Fox

The Simple Life showed Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie as they basically traded their wealthy lifestyles for 'everyday' living. Cameras followed them from fast food jobs to dealing with getting out of sticky situations they'd supposedly never experienced. Needless to say, it was hilarious, iconic, and instant reality TV gold.

How long was 'The Simple Life' on air?

The Simple Life was on air from 2003 to 2007 with five successful seasons. It seemed like it wasn't going to be hit at first, but it defied expectations. By how much you ask?

According to reporting from The Cut, somewhere around 13 million viewers tuned in to watch Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie's oddball take on daily life. That's a pretty huge deal if you ask us!

When will 'Paris & Nicole: The Encore' debut?

Paris & Nicole: The Encore will premiere on Peacock December 12! The two were previously seen at a Sonic drive-thru yesterday so it can be assumed filming is underway (via People)!

Sporting partial Sonic uniforms, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie added accent pieces that match their signature flairs. Paris wore a pair of reflective sunglasses, silver sequin heels, and added a pink flip phone to front of her blue apron. Nicole wore gold hoops and a pair of slingback pumps alongside her hotdog mascot costume. That's hot (dog).

How does Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie feel about reuniting for a reunion special?

Paris Hilton has expressed how much she loves to be sharing the screen with Nicole Richie again. "I'm so excited to be doing this with Nicole on Peacock. Nicole has been my best friend since we're 2 years old, every memory that I have is with her," (via E! News).

Nicole also posted a few throwback moments from The Simple Life on her Instagram, but the most notable one is the video mashup of them singing "Sanasa, Sanasa" over and over. "20 years ago, not only did we become television stars… we became song writers. Happy Anniversary Sill @parishilton#TheSimpleLife#sannnasaaaaa" she wrote in the caption.

What have Paris and Nicole said about their reunion special?

Peacock

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie sat down with W Magazine to let the world know the Paris & Nicole: The Encore show is on its way! Not only that, but fans can expect to see an Opera version of the show they fell in love with two decades ago. Paris said, "The idea of the opera was unexpected" while Nicole chimed in with, "What people need, even though they don't know it yet, is for 'Sanasa' to be an opera.'"

The two besties came up with the idea via a series of texts that started off as ideas between them. Nicole said everything "came up organically" for the two and we can only imagine the memories this brought up for them. OG influencer Paris even talked about how The Simple Life was an "important show in pop culture history" and we couldn't agree more!

Nicole truly wants people to enjoy themselves while watching Paris & Nicole: The Encore and "find the same joy" she had while filming it. According to Paris, she feels what they have is "magic" because "there's just so much history behind it."

It's not every day that you can get to have fun with your best friend while coming up with long-lasting memories that contribute to pop culture, but Paris and Nicole have always danced to the beat of their own drums. Now we'll get to see them in action again!
