It’s the longest day of the year today – the summer solstice. The eternal optimist in me is holding out for the season to actually get itself into gear and give us some hot summer weather, which is probably why this gorgeous Indian-summer inspired bedroom has caught my eye.
Jewel tones and florals - two great trends in one
Yes, it’s garish; yes, it’s bright, but there’s something seriously glossy and almost Bollywood-esque about this scheme that makes me want to curl up on that four poster bed and relax during a hot summer day (and hope for someone to bring me some iced tea). I think the clean white lines of the bed break up the room perfectly, so it doesn’t look too overpowering, plus that wallpaper manages to capture the floral and brights trends in one go. Wicker and distressed accessories, like that gorgeous turqouise wardrobe, also add to the overall brash and bold effect. I’ve also been coveting a floral throw for ages, so it’s no wonder that there’s one included here too!
What do you think – too bold and bright, or just right? Let me know in the comments!

Pretty colors and yes, they’re bright! But they’re nicely “downplayed” by some whites in the room and neutral accents like the woven basket at the foot of the bed. A very “wake up me!” kind of room

I absolutely love this! My house is full of bright colors, and this is right up my alley.
