Are pleated lampshades 'dated?'

I bought those lamps that are the clear round stacked balls...very modern/clean looking (if that makes sense).

The only lampshade I could find that fit the lamp was pleated...

lamp looks like this (not the lampshade):

Lampshade looks like this (but is white):

Im going to have to say nay.... the pleats of the shade don't match the contemporary look of the base.

I knowwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Damn.

Stupid Target. They sell the base separate from the shades. And of course there weren't two matching shades. So we ended up with the pleated.

I agree-the styles don't really go--I'd try online.

Bonnie, almost every Marshall's Tj Maxx and homegoods i've been in in the last 4 months has this EXACT lamp with a plain shade for $29.99. I actually just saw it in Marshalls in huntington last night.

Good Luck! :)
