Color Trend–Spring 2012: Pastels

Color trends in home decor have  run the gamut over the years from all white rooms, rooms with black walls, red dining rooms to yellow kitchens.  While deeper, richer colors have been the backbone of design for a majority of people, it seems that pastels are making a comeback. 

What I love about rooms decorated with pastels is the feeling of ease and grace these lighter tones give off.  There’s a sense of relaxation and comfort that pastels provide and an aire of understated elegance.

Pastels can be just as effective in a modern space as they are in a space that is traditional or vintage inspired.

While I don’t think I’ll adapt my personal style towards pastels, I do know I’ll infuse a few pastel accessories into my decor for spring and will certainly be sporting a few pastel fashion elements as well from my new favorite on-line shop, Ruche.com.

shopruche.com  Spanish Mosaic Bracelet–$21.99   

 

shopruche.com  Claude Jade Stone Ring–$17.99

 

So, how are you embracing the PASTEL TREND…in your decor,  fashion or both?  I’d love to know.
