1. SO HORSEY

They won’t have to guess that you’re going for equestrian style when you slap this baby on the wall. Hang this 36-inch-square print-on-canvas next to the bookshelves and we’re talking modern English manor.

Cost: $279. Ballard Designs, ballard designs.com.

2. MOD SQUAD

Sure, IKEA makes no bones about its Swedish ancestry. But the Kulla lamp, which looks like it was dipped in red candy coating, seems like lighting that a modern-leaning redcoat would cherish. Or something Twiggy might love.

Cost: $49.99. IKEA, 750 E. Boughton Rd., Bolingbrook, 630-972-7900; 1800 E. McConnor Pkwy., Schaumburg, 847-969-9700.

3. TAILORED TWEED

So you haven’t been out tromping the heathers with Camilla and Chas. You can still give your dinner table a touch of the moors with these sport coat-inspired napkins.

Cost: $20 to $25 each. Material Possessions, 704 N. Wabash Ave., 312-280-4885; 954 Green Bay Rd., Winnetka, 847-446-8840.

4. UNION JACK

Who better to channel British pop style through the lens of grandma’s needlepoint pillow than our pal Jonathan Adler? Also available in an orange-and-pink colorway — proof that you can always get what you want.

Cost: $98. Jonathan Adler, 676 N. Wabash Ave., 312-274-9920; jonathanadler.com.

5. THE NAME’S CHESTER

Chester Field. That’s right, a never-say-die chesterfield sofa, tufts and all. Imagine yourself lounging on it while sipping your (shaken) martini, in your library. Jolly good.

Cost: $4,396 on sale. Jayson Home & Garden, 1885 N. Clybourn Ave., 800-472-1885; jayson homeandgarden.com.
