The NEW Mid-Century Craze at Affordable Prices

I have waited for this trend to happen for a long time. And finally it's here! Mid-Century is IN again and we have the line-up ready for you. From Walmart to Ikea to Target to Urban Outfitters, everyone is getting in on this wonderful (and now, affordable) trend.

Keep in mind that I only post items that are under $250ish, and that there are other products at these chains that have the mid-century look. I have posted the more affordable pieces because that's the kinda gal that I am. I like the look without having to take out a second mortgage for it.

Let's get started...

Let's start with Target, who has made the most obvious contributions to the Eames, Saarinen and Knoll knock-off and "inspired" categories...
