Love the look? Here's how to get it in your bedroom and ensuite:
1 Furnishings
With its crisp white finish and beadboard detailing, the Thomas Wardrobe from Pottery Barn works in either a coastal or a flea-market style room. Use it to hold clothes or as an entertainment unit. (And check out the matching dresser and night table.)

2 Bedding
The cheap 'n' chic Bibbi bedspread from IKEA has a stylin' island vibe with its fruity coral, yellow and lime-green hues. Layer it with high-thread-count white cotton sheets and a warm micro-fleece blanket.
