the look book winter 2016 While this time of year is filled with many decorating traditions, who says you can’t try something new to brighten up those chilly winter days? Inspired by upcoming 2017 trends, cooler weather, and the holiday spirit, we’re bringing the frosty, outdoor beauty indoors with these chic decorating ideas.

Marble

Midnight blues

Add that luxury touch this winter with marble décor. It’s no secret that marble has been 2016’s favorite pattern and it’s still very much in this winter. No need to go all out and buy a marble kitchen countertop, simply buying marble candleholders, coasters, or even clocks can add that grandeur feel.

grays

tree stuMps 2016 is all about bringing textures together. Use a tree stump as a coffee table, place mat, or even as a dining room centerpiece. Gather white candles or glass vases with small plants to finish off the piece!

Spruce up those winter-morning greys by bringing them inside. We’re all about silvered branches, frosty tones, and a smoky atmosphere. Throw in grey pillows and blankets into your living room mix and get creative with this ashy shade.

Metallics No need to waste your time with simple silver and gold this year. Try out something new with copper, bronze, or platinum finished. Metallics add sophistication to a cozy space, and compliment those midnight blues beautifully.

20 I SS U E N O . 8

Not cobalt, not navy, but midnight blue is shining through this holiday season. Looking great next to white, this season is all about those true blue colors.

From runners to napkins, getting this shade in your household will make your space truly magical for winter.

Mattes Last year’s trends were glossy finishes, this year, we’re looking at the exact opposite. Matte has always been our all-time favorite and it will be our favorite this season! Want to mix and match?

Bring in last year’s metallic centerpieces and place in a matte finish tray or bow
