Color blocking quite literally (or not so much literally) exploded this past fall. The idea here is to where a bold color mix with no concern of necessarily matching or pulling the colors together with any rhyme or reason. For example: Purple skinny jeans, a sea foam green tee, and patent pink heels. Here are some of my favorite, most fashionable examples of a good color block.
Although color blocking fashion is somewhat "old news", my mind began to visualize a color-blocked interior decor scheme. Would it look good? Would it be a fast and fading trend, as color block fashion seems to be? What would happen if I color blocked my house? Would I get excommunicated and sent off to the loony bin? I had to investigate this one.
Color blocked interiors- can it work long-term or will it be over before the season finale of Parks & Rec? I think I could get away with it with no one questioning my sanity, don't you? Unless, I took it to this extreme...
... at which case I am sure I'd have the authorities called on me. Decorate on, my loves!
I love love love all of these vibrant outfits and room decor. Great post!

Omg that rainbow house is insane! But kind of cool :). I have to say I definitely prefer color blocking in fashion, not as much in decor. I love the pink and orange! And those pink chairs in that one picture are so cool, I'll be pinning that immediately!

ReplyDeleteI think you could color block a room, but I think I would choose the bright colors for things that are easy to change out, like a side chair, pillows, curtains, etc.
ReplyDeleteBeyond AMAZING!
