Ferm Living's Fashion wallpaper would look fabulous in a bedroom or dressing area. It's pretty and whimsical, with a certain old school charm. It's also made of Ferm Living's non-woven fleece Wallsmart wallpaper, which is extremely easy to apply.

If this piece of art by Sugarboo doesn't put a smile on your face every time you see it, nothing will. We love the worn look of the canvas and frame, and the way the simplicity of the message is reflected in the stark typeface.

Versace has launched a new wallpaper collection featuring variations of its trademark barocco, Greek key and herald motifs. Developed in partnership with the German wallpaper specialist AS Creation, the collection is far from subtle but is bound to draw attention to an otherwise overlooked wall. We'd go for Herald, with its intricate floral scrolls.
