You don’t need to strip the walls and redo your entire room to give it a refresh, adding select pieces is all you need. I have made a handy guide on how to create the “gilded room” – touches of black and gold to bring elegance and glamour to your interior.

1. THE ART & INSPIRATION
Selecting what to hang can be tough! I love having lots of art on the walls and want these pieces to compliment each other and the rest of the room. By picking the artwork first, it helps me then choose all the complimentary pieces in the room.
For this gilded inspired room, I have picked two new illustrations from my Suite Escape collection. They all feature touches of gold and have girls in sleek black or cream couture. They can frame a room and add that finishing touch to complete an interior.

Just a few Chanel books…!
2. DECOR
When I start to add to the room, I go to cushions first. Keeping your lounge in a classic shade – creams, greys or even black – makes it easier to change your decor when you need. I love keeping my furniture in soft shades, such as cream and white, as these make pieces like the Press for Champagne cushion pop.
Next, I start to add to the rest of the room – the coffee table and any side tables, as well as any other pieces of interest. Not everyone has a mannequin in their lounge but it makes for a fun way to display a favourite scarf – or an easy way to grab it before you head out. As for the coffee table or even your bedside table if you are doing a bedroom, I like to pick a candle with gold accents as well as some books to add interest to the rest of the room.

3. FINISHING TOUCHES
To tie it all together, I add flowers – keeping it softer with some off white and cream so they don’t overpower the rest of the room! You can also add a throw with your cushions for those cooler months.
