There are always a wide variety of color trends each year and I have to say I love most of them this time! I keep seeing predictions of white’s and neutrals and some colors that compliment them very well.Citrus colors said to be the pop of color this year that makes every home feel bright and airy.
In addition to citrus, corals and and peaches are being picked as one of the most loved colors.

Why I love the color gray!
I know I have shared my love of neutrals all over this blog. The bright white crisp look is one of my favorites but so is gray. Here are a few examples why:It can coordinate with almost ANY color! It is so versatile, clean, and to me there’s something calming about it.It can be masculine or feminine! There are an endless amount of ways you can style it to fit almost any style or preference.It can be warm and cozy and looks great with nature.It can make a statement and works great in children rooms too!I’ve also noticed it’s the best balance between the which shows more dirt discussion!

Roman blinds in the living room
Now that the walls have been knocked down between our living room and dining room, and a breakfast bar added between the dining room and the kitchen, we have to start thinking about light fixtures, and windows. I really like the idea of using crisp, no-fuss roman blinds.
Traditional Living Room by London Interior Designers & Decorators MPD LondonWith a dog floor length drapes tend to get dirty and collect a lot of dust, so I think for us roman blinds will be an easier option.

I’m leaning towards crisp white drapes, which I’ve made before out of mini blinds and a medium weight fabric. Maybe a little trim at the bottom for color.

Subtle or Bold?
I’m in a pink and gray kind of mood today and was wondering what my readers tend to lean towards. Bold accent color or subtle ones? I sway back and forth depending on the color but when it comes to pink and gray I tend to lean towards to the subtle side.

Open Concept Love
Yesterday 3 walls in our house were taken down. Our kitchen, living, and dining room will not all be one great room. I haven’t seen it yet, but I can’t wait to start setting up our new space.
In the meantime, I’ve been gathering all the inspiration I can for open concept layouts. Here are some of my favorites.

Timeless transitional
Transitional can take so many leans, I guess that’s why I like it so much. It also has a timeless appeal, and timeless equals good taste.
