You can’t have style without stuff—but too much stuff is just clutter. And it’s no surprise that the bedroom, where we just want to collapse at the end of the day rather than tediously putting things in order, tends to accumulate a lot of it.
Fortunately, when it comes to identifying your personal style, that stuff offers clues—the things you’re drawn to, the things you collect. Instead of dumping them in a corner, use those items to make a design statement.
Take some inspiration from the design geniuses of Instagram. Like we do every week, we’ve highlighted five top trending looks that you’ll be hard-pressed not to steal for your own bedroom.
1. Rustic storage bench
Let’s be real: Most of your clutter will still need to be stored out of sight. You might as well stash it in something chic, like this rustic storage bench featured by @ireneburg7.
“A storage bench is the perfect solution for resolving closet storage issues, creating additional space, and serving double duty as seating,” says Michelle Harrison-McAllister of Michelle Harrison Design, who likes the “handsome, rustic vibe” of this wooden bench.

A tiny shelf like this one from @caffeineandcacti is like a little spotlight on your favorite items.
“When decorating a space, you sometimes come across a small wall that needs just a little special something,” says Doreen Amico-Sorell of Sorell Interiors. “That’s the time to use a mini shelf. Small floating shelves styled with just the right trinkets will not only fill the void but add an extra focal point to your room.”
