Color. Color. Color.

I am so excited to see vibrant hues coming in strong throughout the summer season.  Now, when I say color, I do not necessarily mean vibrant shades on your walls through paint or bold wallpaper – which for many can be a huge and long term commitment –what I mean, is introducing electrifying color to a more neutral backdrop.  Doing so will give your space a fresh, vibrant look without making such a large investment.

At Posh, we currently have many items in vivid, cheery, and colorful shades.  As clients walk into the store they are immediately drawn to them, which strengthens my belief that we all crave color.  It brightens not only a room, but our spirits as well.

I would advise you to take a more easy going approach to decorating when using vibrant hues.  It is important to purchase pieces you love, as they will almost always end up working in the end.  You should not be afraid to mix more than one color together, if you love it, GO FOR IT.  Sometimes when dealing with brilliant colors, you may have to rebel against the traditional “rules” of decorating.

There are so many ways to add amazing color to a room; you just have to be creative!  The following photos show a wide array of ways to add that perfect color (or colors) to your space.

Mixing the pink flowers in the blue and white vase may not be expected, but it creates a beautiful and original center piece.

Pieces from this collection are also absolutely gorgeous on their own.  The unique pattern and mixture of blue and white would be the perfect pop of exciting color to add to any room.

The above photo features two excellent ways to add that exciting pop of your favorite hues to a space.  Both colorful accent cushions and silk flowers are perfect accessories that will satisfy your need for color.

Gorgeous wall art is the perfect way to add designer drama to a room.  This large poppy print, featuring pinks, reds, yellows, and creams would be an excellent addition to a room that needs that extra spice you desire.

This is one of my FAVORITE pieces that we are featuring in Posh's showroom right now.  The gorgeous green accent chair looks absolutely divine with this beautiful colorful accent cushion.

Who would have thought that a collaboration of green, pink, orange, blue, and yellow would create such an electrifying and gorgeous display?  Rebelling against the "rules" of decorating, we went for it, and absolutely LOVE it, as it satisfies our craving for color.

As you can see, color has the ability to bring a room alive.   There are so many ways to create a beautiful collaboration of color, you just have to go for it!

Have a wonderful day everyone,

Lisa

A touch of Inspiration

We find our clients not only come to our boutique to make a purchase, they come to get inspired!  We have so much fun putting together creative displays and love to hear that our clients received many ideas for their own homes while shopping at our store.  

We love the trend of adding a pop of color to more subtle tones, such as greys, blacks, and whites, as seen here with the pink flowers!  This unique table is the PERFECT backdrop for such a trend.

It is summertime on Prince Edward Island, and that means LOTS of inspiration for decorating!  This mantle display features "beachy" themed items, which really emphasizes the summer feel. 

Fashion does not have to end with your wardrobe! Being fashion forward with your decorating style adds a sophisticated and stylish touch to any space. This gorgeous zebra bench, featuring metallic gold, brown, and black hues is oh so trendy and fashionable. Inspirational quotes, as seen on this pillow, are a simple way to add elegance to a space.


We will be featuring photos of our showroom often, check back to get inspired!

Posh Home Decor : Our Story

Welcome everyone!  We would like to start off by introducing ourselves.  Our names are Lisa and Brianna, and we are a mother-daughter duo who have recently entered the stylish and exciting industry of home decor. 

Inspired by various magazines and television shows, we wanted to bring the latest trends in home fashions to home owners on Prince Edward Island.  With Lisa being an Interior Stylist, and Brianna a business student at the University of Prince Edward Island, we felt that an entrepreneurial opportunity was in our reach.  After months of research and planning, our dream became a reality, and Lisa, along with her husband, Randy DesRoches, opened Posh Home Decor in December of 2010.  Our boutique is located in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, and both Brianna and Lisa run the store on a daily basis. 

We wanted to begin sharing inspiration with our clientele, and feel that we will be able to do so through our blog.  We will be sharing photos of our showroom, products available at our store, and Lisa's Interior Styling projects, as well as design tips, and other information that we feel will be of benefit to our readers.

Have a wonderful day everyone!
