Having spent some time on the internet researching the incoming trends for this Autumn/Winter season, I thought I'd share them here.
So what's the trend to be? Answer: colour, colour and more colour. Nice bright vivid colours in lime green, turquoise, magenta and orange, along with some gray and white to take the edge off the brightness.
I love having a bit of brightness in my decor, I already have red accenting cream walls and dark wood floor. I may change it to turquoise for the winter though for a bit of a change. The key to adding colour is moderation: maybe one accent wall, several cushions or other accessory items. Purchase lots of items in the same color to add even more impact. This creates colour repetition in your interior and unifies it. Keep your expensive items neutral and add the colour with lampshades, cushions, rugs, throws and flowers (dried or real) and your decorating budget will go much further.
The trend over the last few seasons has been neutrals with black and white added. The good news is that you can keep all of that, just change accent items, like this:
As would the midsize warmer 'Rosso' (£30)
Gorgeous pops of citrus could be added to this room:
