Love your Look:

Some people are completely energized by rooms full of electric colors in strong stripes, gigantic florals and geometric shapes. Others would blow a circuit in such a high voltage space and instead yearn for a palette of whisper-soft hues and muted patterns. Since picking pattern and color is such an intensely personal decision, you've got to follow your heart and only embrace a look that will make you smile for years to come.

If your're not sure about what level of color and pattern floats your boat, thumb through decorating magazines and books, earmarking the pictures that you love.

Chances are, the rooms you're drawn to share a common look, with color tones and pattern designs that are just right for you.
