You don&#8217;t need to live in Buckingham Palace to be able to integrate it into your home. From lilac to mauve, purple is a versatile colour and will suit any interior, you just need to go about it cleverly. This post is dedicated to a misunderstood colour, and will show you how to pull off purple.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Add some texture<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Start with accessories. Purple looks incredible with grey, and to add a real kick to your decor, add some textured accessories. Sequins, scales and a bit of sparkle will never go amiss and will stop your room looking flat and tired. It&#8217;s incredible what a spot of suede can do!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Textured.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2592\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Textured.jpg\" alt=\"Textured purple\" width=\"440\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Textured.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Textured-333x500.jpg 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/originals\/fc\/29\/d5\/fc29d5dd53f8959575d77aa740bb73cc.jpg\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Light with lilac<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Purple doesn&#8217;t need to be dark and gloomy. Lilac is a gorgeous colour and isn&#8217;t loud enough to take over a whole room. You can accessorise using bed linen or even a beautiful chair like the one below. The vintage, light chest of drawers adds a vintage vibe that looks fantastic with a tropical plant in the corner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/chair.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2593\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/chair.jpg\" alt=\"Lilac chair\" width=\"451\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/chair.jpg 451w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/chair-401x500.jpg 401w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 451px) 100vw, 451px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/originals\/c3\/7c\/c0\/c37cc01e2182ef3e24e1597c40fcd387.jpg\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Feature wall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Painting just one wall is a sure-fire way of grabbing the attention of guests and bringing a welcome splash of colour to your space. The trick is to make sure it&#8217;s not too dark, so you can maintain a summery atmosphere. The dark leather chair compliments the decor really well. Always accessorise light purple with darker hues.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/wooden-wall.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2594\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/wooden-wall.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden feature wall\" width=\"446\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/wooden-wall.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/wooden-wall-392x500.jpg 392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/melissamercier.com\/Blog\/?p=8140\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Deep purple<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you don&#8217;t want to commit to changing your entire room, why not change just the curtains? These gorgeous silk curtains from The Loom and Last are a striking colour but the light fabric means they don&#8217;t seem too heavy. Make sure to get blackout lining with this fabric so it doesn&#8217;t fade in the sun.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/curtains.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2596\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/curtains.jpg\" alt=\"Silk curtains\" width=\"471\" height=\"627\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/curtains.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/curtains-376x500.jpg 376w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.loomandlast.com\/\">\u00a0Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">p<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Purple is in again, and the colour of the season isn&#8217;t easy to pull off.
