By now, I’m sure most of us have heard the phrase ” old money aesthetic”. This trend has taken the internet by storm. Garnering over 5.4 billion views for the term #oldmoneyaesthetic on TikTok alone, which is absolutely insane!

I first came to know what the term was when Sofia Richie was going viral on TikTok and Pinterest for her old money style.

First, it was the way we dress, then it was the nails, and now it is the way we style our homes!

I think the old-money home decor aesthetic is here to stay for a LONG time and is often referred to as a “timeless classic” by many interior designers. The vintage look and feel of the home exudes luxury and wealth and looks absolutely amazing.

WHAT IS OLD MONEY AESTHETIC?

If you don’t know what the old money aesthetic is, it’s a style that exudes timeless elegance, class, and sophistication. For style, you may want to take a look at Sofia Richie, Kate Middleton, and Meghan Markle who have all perfected this aesthetic.

The old-money home decor reflects a more traditional and classic approach to interior design. Think of things like wood paneling, wallpapers, and art. These are a few things that are often associated with the term old money aesthetic.

Now that you know a bit about what the term means, let’s take a look at these 22 gorgeous old-money home decor ideas to take your interior to the next level!

OLD MONEY HOME DECOR IDEAS:

1. OLD MONEY LIVING ROOM

How gorgeous is this living room decor? Everything goes together so perfectly-from the chandelier down to the cozy chairs.

When trying to achieve the old-money aesthetic in your home, a gorgeous chandelier can go a long way. You can buy amazing chandeliers on Amazon without spending tons of money.

2. CANDLE SCONCES AND LARGE PICTURE

Adding candle sconces is an easy way to add a bit of old-money decor to your home. If you’re someone who loves adding pictures or paintings to your wall, this old-money home decor idea is perfect for you!

If you have open space above your mantel or any empty wall space in general, you can get a large picture to hang up there. You can add the picture into a brass frame to add a vintage and luxury look to it.

3. HALLWAY / ENTRYWAY DECOR

Looking for some new ideas for your entryway decor? This one is an amazing option. Get an entryway table that is deep and rich in color like dark cherry. In a lot of old homes, that seems to be something they have in common.

Place faux greenery, tabletop lamps, books, and pictures on the table for decor. Adding mirrors and pictures on your walls is a great way to create an inviting and welcoming home!

4. BATHROOM DECOR

This bathroom is the literal definition of classy. I mean how can it be this gorgeous and clean?! This stunning bathroom incorporates the use of wall sconces again which are brass just like the double mirrors.

That’s another common theme I’m finding in these old-money decor ideas, they all incorporate brass in one way or another.

Add some flowers to brighten up the place and place matching hand soap and lotion to create a beautiful bathroom countertop.

5. CREATE WALL ART GALLERY

I love creating wall art galleries all throughout my home. It’s such a nice and easy way to fill up the empty wall space and it works for all size homes.

You can buy brass picture frames and just insert the aesthetic art or pictures of yourself, family, and friends there to hang up.

6. OLD MONEY DECOR HALLWAY

If you have a lot of hallway space in your home, consider adding a few pictures here and there. I also love the gorgeous wood paneling in this design.

You can add wood paneling for a timeless and luxurious look. This is also a fantastic way to add decor or fill up empty wall space instead of just leaving the walls plain.

7. CORNER DECOR

If you have a corner in your home that you want to decorate and make use of but don’t know how or where to begin, this is a great idea!

Get a small table and decorate it as you would an entryway table. For example, place things like candles, books, plants, and tabletop lamps to create a stunning little corner.

If you have limited space, this can also work as an entryway or bedside table.

8. ADD WALLPAPER

Bring back wallpaper in your homes! Old money home decor uses lots of wallpaper in different colors and designs.

I recommend adding wallpaper to places like the bathroom, mudroom, or maybe even the office. Floral, stripes, and plaid are a few of the most common wallpapers used when trying to achieve the old-money aesthetic.

9. LUXURIOUS BEDROOM

OMG! Can you just imagine how it would feel to sleep in this bed after a long and tiring day? I love everything about this bedroom idea.

When choosing which bedsheets you want for your bedroom, consider fabrics like silk, satin, and velvet as they look and feel more luxurious. Side note, sleeping on silk or satin pillowcases is actually really good for your hair.

10. CONSOLE TABLE DECOR

Use a console table to show off some of your home decor and personality. They are also great for small spaces and storage.

Place a couple of lamps, greenery, and pictures to create a simple yet cute old money console table. You can also add a few more wall art to fill up the space.

11. BATHROOM CABINET

Another way of incorporating old money style in your home is by replacing the bathroom cabinets. Consider going for something like dark cherry to create a vintage style.

You can also add a few paintings or pictures to the wall, add wall sconces, and replace the mirror to coordinate with the cabinet.

12. SIMPLE BATHROOM DECOR

If you’re not a fan of the dark, vintage style of the old money home decor, then this may be a better fit for you.

It has minimal decor and the wall is a gorgeous green color which is one of the most common colors for the old-money style.

Incorporate a few wall pictures and place a tray with candles and plants on your bathroom countertop or the tank.

13. BAR CART

I love the idea of using a bar cart to add decor. Get a brass bar cart from Target or Amazon and place things like candle sticks, music turntables, and other various items that look like old money style.

You can also place a few beverages on there since it is a bar cart (lol).

14. GORGEOUS ENTRYWAY

This is one of the best old-money home decor ideas I’ve seen. If you’ve ever watched movies or shows that take place in maybe the 1900s or 1800s, they always have a wall similar to this.

You can recreate this by gathering a bunch of pictures that have brass or dark frames around them to hang up.

Keep a cute little straw seat under the console table so you can sit down while putting your shoes on in the morning.

15. VANITY IDEA

How insanely beautiful is this vanity setup? This is giving me major rich-girl vibes. I love all the little brass detailing on the vanity dresser and mirrors.

This inspo is super easy to recreate. You’ll need a brass floor mirror, a brass hand mirror, and a vintage or antique-looking vanity. Then, just place all of your beauty essentials on there, and voila!

16. MINIMALIST BEDROOM

For all my minimalist girlies out there who still want to transform their bedroom to old money style, but don’t want it to be too much, this one’s for you!

The decor in general is very minimal and simple, so you won’t feel cluttered when stepping into your bedroom. The chandelier combined with the bed and nightstand is simply breathtaking.

You can of course add more decor and designs to your bedroom to make it more personalized and to your liking.

17. NIGHTSTAND DECOR

Recreate this very simple nightstand decor idea by placing flowers, books, a cute picture, and a table lamp.

I love that the flowers on the nightstand also match the flowers on the wallpaper.

18. OLD MONEY KITCHEN IDEA

Ok, I don’t love to cook, but maybe if I had this kitchen in my home, I may want to🤷🏻‍♀️. I am in love with the French stove in this. I literally have a whole album filled with pictures, designs, and appliances that I want in my dream home. And a French stove is definitely one of them!

You can change out the knobs on your drawers and cabinets to create something similar to this. Include lots of wooden chopping boards, salt and pepper shakers, and other items to create a stunning kitchen.

19. LOUNGE CHAIR

This would look amazing by the window. If you have space near a window or a corner in your home, place a cute lounge chair and small table to create a spot where you can relax.

I love reading books (a big fan of SJM), so that’s probably what I would do in this chair all day long!

20. LUX CLOSET

Oh to have this closet. I would never come out of there! If you have a closet similar to this or are remodeling, consider adding designs to your ceiling.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I think having designs on there makes it even more luxurious. You can also add chandeliers and a large brass mirror on top of your dresser to create some old-money style.

21. DARK OFFICE SPACE

If you have an office space in your home, one of the ways to emulate the old money aesthetic is by painting your cabinets and drawers a dark, vintage color like black or dark cherry.

Add a few faux plants and greenery to brighten up the place, get a brass lamp, and we cannot forget candles so the room always smells nice and fresh!

22. DINING TABLE SETTING

This is another very easy way to achieve the old-money aesthetic in your home. Create a gorgeous dining table setting by incorporating antique china plates.

You can get these off of Etsy. Some are really affordable and others are quite expensive, so it all depends on what your budget is and what kind of china you want.
