The Budget-Friendly And Easy Way To Emulate Zendaya's Trendy Bathroom

Zendaya isn't just a style icon on the red carpet — the movie star has an equally swanky eye when it comes to home design. Take her bathroom. Although most bathrooms aren't super special, Zendaya's is the kind of space that makes you want to linger in a little longer just to soak in the atmosphere. The good news is, you don't need a celebrity budget to capture that same vibe in your own home. With a few smart, budget-friendly updates, you can bring a touch of Zendaya-inspired glamour straight into your own bathroom.

The best part about her bathroom's look is that it leans into the Japandi style: clean lines, calming neutrals, and natural textures. You don't need imported marble or a custom vanity to make your bathroom feel special. Instead, you can borrow from this Japandi-inspired approach by focusing on organic materials, subtle contrasts, and simple upgrades that elevate the atmosphere — as well as your mood. Accents like peel-and-stick faux wood paneling, a mirror that doubles as a statement piece, or even just a set of fluffy towels in warm, neutral tones will all make a huge difference.

Zendaya's bathroom is making waves because it's stylish, calming, and totally on trend. Just as simple additions bring a cozy Japandi style to your kitchen, those same things work perfectly in your bathroom. That wooden feature wall is the second star inside Zendaya's bathroom, and it's easier to replicate than you might think. Peel-and-stick wood panels are widely available and surprisingly affordable, giving you the look of slatted wood without the construction hassle. Even a wood-grain wallpaper can create the same warm, textural feel.

Her bathroom balances warm wood with soft neutrals, like gray, beige, and white. Consider upgrades that offer a Japandi-inspired design, like repainting your walls in these tones or swapping in neutral towels and shower curtains, which instantly sets the same calming mood. Zendaya's space feels like a retreat because of the details. Think slatted teak bath mats, eucalyptus branches in a simple vase, ribbed towels, or a sleek stone soap dish. These touches are affordable but instantly elevate the space. A chic mirror is also an instant style upgrade. Look for oversized, round, or arched designs with slim metallic or black frames. You'll get that sleek, modern feel for a fraction of the price of designer versions. Don't forget lighting. Soft, flattering light is key. If rewiring isn't an option, battery-powered sconces or stick-on LED vanity bars create the same effect.
