Romantic Style in the Nursery

February is the perfect month to honor romantic style. This style embraces the softer side of design and alludes to fairy tales, dreamy garden parties and even Romeo and Juliet. No two interpretations of romantic style are alike. Romance, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

Small luxuries with romantic details recall old-style femininity, like a Venetian mirror or a lush rug.

Shying away from neutrals, the romantic color palette consists of gem-like tones of blushing rose, lilac, sky blues and greens. Marry garden-inspired greens with ivory or quiet blues or muted whites.

The fabrics found in romantic style are linen, velvet and cashmere. It is important to keep things practical and mix in some casual style. Durable fabrics like cottons help create a room where function and luxury can coexist.
