With autumn settled in for the next few months it's time to cosy up with a new neutrals colour cocktail. Shake off those summer brights with a mix of dusty grey hues and softer nude-like neutrals. Order a metallic chaser to follow and you'll be sorted for the new season. Place a chic grey sofa next to a collection of brass, copper and silver candlesticks holding flickering nude-coloured candles proudly aloft. Then use delicate textures to balance the masculine greys; silk quilts and sumptuous wool pile rugs made up of natural, taupe and auburn tones work well to add warmth to such schemes. Meanwhile, metallic surfaces will reflect the glistening glow of your lights that will shine through the long, dark evenings.

ReplyDeleteI've only recently painted the walls in my living room a soft gray. I've debating with myself makiing sure that I like it. I love this cocktail though.
ReplyDeleteI am all over the greys Will. I love the entire spectrum of it.. With some pops of colour - it's wonderful in a room or in an outfit.

I am a huge fan of the greys. Will definitely be painting my sitting room a light grey sometime soon x
ReplyDeleteGrey and white, so classic and always elegant. Look at the Christian dior Boutique and salon in Paris! Need I say more?
ReplyDeleteWe are huge grey fans in our house. (and clothes). We have grey walls in most of our house in cool violety grey with pops of orange, teals, greens. it is the perfect backdrop but still holds it's own.

ReplyDeleteMy home is slathered in grays and neutrals right now, from pale to charcoal. I have been debating on painting white my thrift store brass candlesticks but after seeing the pics here and the nude sticks, I'm going to let them shine. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletethat's the exact shade of grey I'd like for our sofa! I love this time of year...perfect for heaps of candles in every corner of the living room. Have a lovely weekend Will!
ReplyDeleteCheers for chiming in on the neutrals, guys.
ReplyDeleteMichelle - Yes! Be sure to keep the brass candlesticks just as they are, they sound divine.
This is one of my favorite color cocktails ever. Nice job, Dub.
