Navy & Gray Classic Fall ...

It's very hard to pull off Navy & Gray without verging on boring ... the Celine Fall 2013 RTW changed my mind ... the look is chic, elegant, edgy and everything but boring. I feels it's a new neutral in both fashion and interiors.Take a look.

Creating an eclectic look requires marrying various patterns, textures, colors and motifs without creating chaos. Teaming bold geometric patterns with neutral florals is one dynamic way of creating a whimsical space ... take a look at other ways of mixing patterns for a statement look!!!

I love a lean free standing mirror that rests effortlessly against a wall ... not only does it bring light into a space but it also adds depth and drama especially if it is reflecting something beautiful on the other end. Just adding one bold piece sets the tone to a room ...

The Minimalist Bedroom ...

These bedrooms are very refreshing ... they are simple, clean, warm and cozy with minimal design details ... one can truly unwind, relax and recharge.

Cool nightstand, art and wall paneling detail.

Love the reclaimed accent wall and hanging light fixtures.

Neutral and calming color palette with vintage accent chair and wall mounted lamps.

Cozy bed nook with weathered platform bed and industrial lamps.

Mustard on you ...

I was inspired by Gucci's Spring 13' collection for this post. I love the freshness this color brings into a space.

The chartreuse chairs stand out and liven up the dark grey tones in the background.

The color palette above is one of my favorites ... I've used it in my home and absolutely still love it:)

 

 If you're still skeptical maybe just use the color as an accent like the throw pillows and artichoke table lamps.

Using wall paper on a frame instead of directly applying to a wall is a clever idea for those of us who don't want to deal with the process of stripping and damaging our walls.

 Nice controlled use of the chartreuse green paint ... maybe a little clinical in my opinion but a nice fresh feel to it.
