As spring begins to bloom around us, it’s time to shed the jeans and jackets in favor of lighter clothes. For many of us, that means updating ourselves on the latest trends of the fashion world. The same styles that are sweeping the catwalk also have the ability to modernize our interior design. Once you finish your spring cleaning, refresh your home with these four fashion trends.
Rusty yellow, deep red and forest green are the colors to wear this year. They’re also the colors for décor. Rather than making these vibrant tones the main color of a room, use them for accent colors, such as in upholstery or curtains. Opt for a neutral grey as the main color of the room.
Graphic tees are a playful way to bring attention to an outfit. They show the world who you are at the same time — your favorite rock band, Marvel superhero or cheesy saying. Do it yourself in your home by making page-sized glossy prints of your favorite photos or quotes and hanging them in your own mini-gallery on the wall in a living room, bedroom or hallway. Take it to the next level by coordinating the colors of the images. Bonus points if you use the previously mentioned earth tones.

Comfort and fashion are no longer mutually exclusive — think sweatpants, leggings and oversized sweaters. Similarly, cozy interior design is in, and it’s called hygge, the Danish concept of living in comfort. Bring hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) into your home with candles, fairy lights and chunky-knit blankets.
ABOVE ALL, CONFIDENCE IS IN. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT BY APPLYING YOUR OWN BOLD STYLE TO YOUR HOME. ◆
