The STYLE RULES

CREATE A FEMININE BACKDROP

Swap candy pinks for a muted blush shade on walls to avoid the overall scheme from looking too sickly sweet. For a grand focal point, make the most of an ornate fire surround.

GO FOR TRIED AND TESTED COLOUR COMBOS

Team blush pink walls with a mid-century shape sofa in light grey and embrace the seasonal sparkle with embellished cushions featuring opulent snowflakes and Decoinspired scallop designs.

JUXTAPOSE TEXTURES

Contrast hard surfaces like cool marble and foxed glass with softer accents such as satin ribbons, feathery pendant lights and a slubby linen tablecloth.

RAMP UP THE GLAMOUR

When it comes to decorations, pick a frosted tree laden with bejewelled baubles in sugared-almond shades.
