Next, we head down south to the refined yet relaxed charm of Charleston, South Carolina. This style combines crisp whites and soft pastels with vibrant accents like coral and navy. It also leans toward high-end antiques from the 18th-19th century, crystal and silver. Think Coastal Grandmother, but elevated.
The vintage row of homes, grand entryways, gas lanterns, and beautifully trimmed shrubbery. This woman of the home is always dressed and ready to entertain. While the surfer mom might be too, she just walked off the beach with you and is making cocktails in her bathing suit. The Preppy Coastal woman is showered dressed and making your mint julep in her great-grandmother's glasses while you wait for the men to return from the golf club.
You can think of vintage but not rustic pine scrubbed to get this look: higher-end darker wood, tablecloths, and silver. Incorporate classic southern elements like porch swings, wicker furniture, and elegant chandeliers, mixed with coastal touches such as oyster shell mirrors and botanical prints. The result is sophisticated, welcoming, and distinctly Southern. To add a personal touch, consider monogrammed linens or custom upholstery in gingham or striped patterns.
Preppy South Carolina Charleston Coastal:
Monogrammed Linens: Add monogrammed towels or pillows to bring a touch of Southern sophistication into your space.
Gingham or Striped Pillows: Introduce preppy patterns by switching out your throw pillows for gingham or striped designs in coral, navy, or mint green.
Porch Swing or Wicker Chair: If you have an outdoor space, a porch swing or a wicker chair with a soft cushion is a quick way to channel Charleston charm.
