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
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.
Bold and Contemporary
A contemporary bedroom can boast bold and bright colors for a fabulously feminine bedroom as well. Dark chocolate or black low-profile furniture, such as a platform bed, is ideal for a contemporary design. Keep most elements in the room neutral to make the bold infusions stand out even more. Black and white can serve as the perfect background colors and make it easy for you to update the look of your bedroom as you see fit. Use a white duvet cover that features a black stitched floral design with a burst of a third color, such as yellow, pink, turquoise or purple. Add pillows, curtains, a lamp, candles, a fluffy rug and artwork that feature your bold color. Another option is to paint the wall behind your bed in the bold color of your choice and hang black and white pictures on that wall above your bed.
