Celebrity Inspired Bedrooms

Wanna glam up your bedroom for 2010? Inspired by the looks of Kim Kardashian or Carrie Bradshaw's bedroom? Here are some tips for achieving that ultra feminine boudoir for less than half the price.

First, shop around; go to furniture stores and thrift shops to look for furniture pieces and accessories. Never, buy bedroom sets, matchy matchy looks really amateurish and does not create the chic and trendy look we are trying to achieve.

Second, let your bedroom match your personality, but at the same time be functional. If you are a hopeless romantic, lay on the silk dupioni drapes, add a tufted headboard or chair. If you are a drama queen, bring on the Hollywood flair with silver and gold and add a spotlight instead of a lamp. If you prefer a more relaxing and serene atmosphere use whites, blues and greens to set a natural and calming mood.

Accessories are just as important in interior design as they are in dressing. Accessories accentuate parts of the room and make a statement. Accessories can include conch shells, antique perfume bottles, art and even books. A book on the history of Chanel can be the perfect chic accessory in a bedroom.

To achieve this look, go with a bright blue color on the walls. Now ordinarily this shade of blue can darken a room thus making it appear smaller. However, the white trim, lamps and the cream colored bed and curtains brighten and enlarge the room.
