Kim's Relaxed Gray Bedroom


We enjoyed purple and gray stormy skies on our drive home this evening which was followed up by a bit of chilly weather. We feel Fall rolling in and dream of a day or two spent indoors wrapped up in bed. Kim's gray bedroom echos our sentiment exactly...

 
 

The gray walls have a tinge of purple which is brought out by Kim's alternating bedding. We love the textured throw against white sheets which gives off a summery vibe. Then, turning towards Fall, Kim replaces the crisp bedding with a graphic print duvet--which reads chic and polished. Just as the bedding changes with the seasons, so do the flowers. First, colorful tulips fill a bedside glass vase and are replaced with lovely field flowers of violet in an orange planter.

That's it! I want a grey bedroom! It's such a chic color and I love how you can transition it into a different palette so easily!

What is the name of this color grey?

The white "fringe" pillow was at Crate and Barrel last season.

This year's closes would appear to be the Layla.

this bedroom is so relaxing and pretty! ive been obsessed with gray ever since we painted our bedroom a light gray with a little blue in it- wish we went a little darker like this though!

i would love to know the paint color, as well as the source for that adorable clock!

carr, the clock is a Moonbeam. They originally came in yellow, but you can get them in other colors from LL Bean.

Lovely, thanks! I'm currently working toward a grey/teal bedroom, so it's great to see the colour scheme in action.
