How To Use Color Trends:
- Enjoy the new colors and new color combinations - if they appeal to you. This is a splendid opportunity to create visual pleasures for the eye (and sometimes tactile pleasures for the feel)
- Incorporate new color trends but avoid being 'trendy;' embrace what fits in with 'your' look, with your style; this becomes your classic look
- Don't break the bank to stay up with trends and fashion in your home
Pick color trends that appeal to you. It's not practical nor economical nor true to your own sense of well being to become a slave of fashion.
Don't buy large furniture pieces in trendy colors. Trends come and go but you can easily expect a piece of furniture such as a sofa to stay for years. Rather, use trendy colors in accents and decor such as trays, vases, mirrors, or even candles.
Maybe change out your wall art from time to time to keep your room looking fresh and to reflect your favorite colors.
Pillows and throws are also an excellent way to introduce a new color in your room and easier on the budget.
Again, incorporating new color trends is enjoyable, like tasting an exquisite, refreshing new cuisine. But avoid 'trendy.' Adopt what fits in with 'your' look, with your style. In doing so you are creating your own classic and classy look.
