Beds these days are much more than simple sheets and blankets. The main change in recent years has been to give a bed lots of light layers rather than heavy blankets and duvets. Layers are very practical as you can use more or less of them in the night depending on the temperature. If it's cold you always have another layer to hand and if it's hot you can throw them all off until you are left with just a sheet. Of course the layers make the bed look great too provided you choose the right elements and dress your bed well.
So how do you dress your bed to get that perfect layered look?

1. A Great Base
To make the most comfortable bed you have to start with a great mattress - a lumpy old mattress that slumps in the middle is never going to give you a great looking bed (or a good night's sleep for that matter). So getting that right is critical.
Once you have your firm mattress base, cover it with a mattress protector to keep the mattress clean and in great condition for the length of its life (10 years max)
Next you may want to add a mattress pad, maybe a featherbed cover or a memory foam mattress cover to give a softer sleeping surface that molds to your body and relieves pressure points as you sleep.
2. Sheets and Covers
Choose smooth high-cotton sheets with a good thread count (anything between 180 and 500) to fit on top of your mattress. If choosing a bottom fitted sheet remember to include the height of the mattress cover and pad when measuring the depth of the mattress for a smooth fit.
You can then use a duvet and duvet cover or have a quilt or comforter over a top bed sheet. Choose sheets and duvet cover or quilt/comforter in coordinating colors and patterns.
3. Final Touches
Add pillows and pillow shams to match or coordinate with your sheets and top cover.
Finally dress the bed with a throw or two and plenty of cushions to give the bed a cosy inviting look.
4. Make it Easy
Of course if you choose all these elements separately it can be difficult to get a well-dressed bed but these days there are plenty of ready-made bedding ensembles that you can choose from to make sure that your bed has the right layered designer look. Choose a set which has many elements included or one where you buy the basics and can then add to it as required (and as budget permits).
