Are you a statement coat or neutral coat kinda gir Are you a statement coat or neutral coat kinda girl?

I feel like it’s no surprise I love a statement coat because when you live in a colder climate during the Fall & Winter your coat IS your outfit so why not make it GOOD 😍 and while my cute cable knit sweater & straight leg jeans are cute, this long orange plaid coat (& my little blue bag from Italy) make the outfit 💁🏼‍♀️

& just to be clear I also have my fair share of classic neutral coats hanging in my closet, but there’s just something about a statement jacket 😍👌🏼

Room for Style: Decorating with Complimentary Colors

Decorating | Complimentary Colors | #LivingAfterMidnite
Complementary Colors

Color is one of the most important elements of any room. Choosing a color palette need not be intimidating. Set a peaceful mood with whites and creams, or add energy to your decor with bright colors.
An ideal decorating color scheme will have two to four colors. One color should be the dominating hue. Repeat colors throughout the room by using pieces such as rugs, lampshades, pillows, vases. draperies. Take advantage of the color wheel to choose hues that personalize your decor and decorate your space the way you like. One way is to use complementary colors.
Decorating | Complimentary Colors | #LivingAfterMidnite
Complementary colors are directly opposite of each other on the color wheel. You can create bold, yet pleasing color combinations. Nature provides some beautiful examples…a red rose with green foliage, a monarch butterfly against the blue sky, or a purple petunia with a yellow center.
Complementary colors create a sense of harmony – we find them interesting and pleasing.

Any style upholstered headboard can be custom made to fit your style. This particular headboard was upholstered with fabric from Thibaut Design, which can be found at Wallauer Design Center.

 Not ready to make a commitment with furniture, but love this style of decorating. Complementary color schemes can be accomplished by using accessories.
