Inspired by 2013 Bags: Pastels & Neons in Decor

Hello, everyone!
     I'm so happy to be here at Belle Chantelle with a guest post from Arcadian Home blog. It's a great place to find lots of interior design inspiration including beautiful home decor ideas from brilliantly colored decorative pillows to lovely modern pendant lighting and much more. Chantelle inspired today's topic with her post on pastel and neon bags for spring 2013. The colors she included are also pretty when used in interior spaces. From the palest of pinks to a brilliant neon chartreuse, we love these happy hues for fashion and decor. Please enjoy! Thanks for letting me stop by for a visit. ~ Mari
An all-white contemporary living room with low profile furniture and a shaggy white rug on the floor goes soft and feminine with buttery yellow on one wall and a tiny patterned pink and green wallpaper on another. The array of pastels in this space range from pale pink on the sofa pillows to the edge of neon in the glass accessories on the table. Neon oranges and pinks bring a lively vibe to this black and white bedroom. Ornate crystal mini pendant lights hung above orange lamps on the bedside tables are an unexpected double lighting choice that works well. Oh the possibilities! We're seeing tons of colorful chairs around the Internet world right now. Choose just one for a single pop of color in white room or four in a rainbow of colors to brighten up a breakfast nook. Pale blues and pinks in solids, strips and pretty patterns are combined to create an eclectic feminine living room. I love the empty matted frames that draw the eye to individual bird motifs in the wallpaper. From walls to woodwork, this Scandinavian room is pretty in pastels. Green, mint, lilac and cream wishbone chairs add to the pale mix. Black modern pendant lights are not the usual lighting fixtures for over the table in a pastel room. This would be a lovely way to bring a bit of farmhouse to a city apartment. I love the yellow free-standing soaking tub with its glam ornate silver claw feet. Neon pink is stunning in this modern space. The bright hue pops against the writing desk and gray upholstered wall with nailhead detailing. A contemporary family room goes colorful with neon furnishings, artwork and accessories. Glossy lime green tub chairs with white upholstered interiors get even more colorful with the addition of decorative pillows. Images 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8
