Romantic Bedroom Week: Hydeist's Ode to Prince

2-13-prince2.jpgWelcome to our Romantic Bedroom Giveaway - all info here

Name: Hydeist
Location: North Miami Beach, FL

Picture Description: Nothing says "You're in for an extremely wild night." like a fully padded velvet wall. Behold the purple pillow on the floor that says "Satisfied". This bedroom is inspiring because it's fun and sexy but not a cliche like tacky black satin sheets.....

 
 

Romantic Bedroom Tip:

I've been a Prince fan since I was ,like 10. To Prince, the bedroom is a church devoted to sex. I've seen a lot of inspirationsal bedrooms in Prince videos and photos. Although some items, like a headboard shaped like a bare breasted angel ,are a little over the top, he uses great colors and mood lighting. And he definitely commits to the theme. The bedroom featured in his 3121 liner notes is actually sort of tasteful. When I thought about a Valentine's Day bedroom, I immediately thougt of Prince, because nobody does seduction like the Master of the Nasty.

Thanks, Hydeist!

Be careful with that... If you put too much effort in promoting your Prince-branded bedroom online, His Purple Highness will sue your ass.

everyone, I think this IS a bedroom from Prince...from the liner notes. See the staple.

agreed silvarga! anyway, as much as i love prince's music, i'm no fan of his decorating style. It's beyond 80s tacky and cliche--i'm surprised there's no leopard print. this picture is from a home in los angeles he was renting (and i remember reading that the landlord sued him for changing the carpet, etc.). shudders at the thought of how over the top his purple mansion in minneapolis is.

This is so disgusting. Can you imagine dating someone and seeing this as their bedroom for the first time? (Admittedly, since I think this might be Prince's bedroom, you probably already know what you're getting into.)
