Go crazy with pink floral patterns if they make you feel at ease.
Decorate your bedroom to reflect your personal style, personality and interests. Your bedroom can be as feminine as you want it to be. You will spend more time in your bedroom than anyone else, so decorate the space in a manner that is comforting and appealing to you. Use styles, colors, patterns, fabrics and accessories that help you relax.
Shabby Chic
in a shabby chic style if it suits you. Mix in a few modern elements with vintage items that all fit into the same color scheme or have a common theme. Soft colors such as pink or lavender typically set the mood for shabby chic decor. Add different patterns, such as plaid and floral fabrics, that feature the same colors. Hang vintage pictures or advertisements in distressed frames or display your favorite vintage collection on shelves or the dresser. Choose or create distressed furniture to round out the look.
Victorian
Aim for a Victorian-inspired room if you want a completely soft and feminine room. Think floral patterns, lace, white and pinks everywhere. Choose a four poster canopy bed, if possible, to display a lace or sheer canopy or floral panels. Bedside tables could include authentic Victorian-era tables or round tables with lace tablecloths and glass tops. Set out doilies on the bedside table under a fancy glass or crystal lamp and porcelain jewelry or keepsake box, or something equally feminine and romantic. Include gold-framed mirrors or Victorian artwork on the walls and a dressing table or vanity. Luxurious curtains in a heavy fabric, such as velvet, and sheer lace panels underneath can complete the room.
Spa Treatment
Use earth tones and natural elements for a bedroom that resembles your favorite spa. Choose a matching bedroom set with light or dark wood tones and a headboard upholstered in leather or velvet. Use a light, neutral color for most of the fabric in the room including the bed cover and curtains. White, cream or ivory may work best. Inject some color, such as sage green, chocolate brown or rusty orange into the room through a striped chair, a folded throw at the foot of the bed, a lampshade or a couple of decorative pillows on the bed. Scented candles and a couple of houseplants should be strategically placed around the room on the nightstand, shelves or dresser. Finish the look with a soft white or cream colored carpet next to the bed.
