One of my dearest friends just announced she is having a girl! We have been discussing colors for her space and I love the idea of lavender for a nursery or girls room, it is soft and feminine but still a bit sophisticated. Lavender looks beautiful with an accent of apple green, rich plum or chocolate brown, and is a color scheme wich can so easily grow with your little one into a chic room for a teen. So here is round up of my favorite sweet lavender rooms for girls!

I adore this last one - certainly fit for a princess!

Inspired Plum!

Two days ago I shared my favorite Lavender Lovelies and promised no more purple for a bit - but I can't help it - I am also in love with plum! Plum is the vivacious, dramatic, and warm cousin of lavender so I had to include her! Plum looks fantastic with other bold colors and can really hold its own in a room. Our wedding colors were ivory, plum, and navy blue - a combo I will forever love. So enjoy a little plum {and then I really promise to stop with all the purple!}

Plum in the kitchen is unexpected but so beautiful! It's perfect here since there are open shelves instead of  solid upper cabinets - that would have been overwhelming I think! {via}

Just the ceiling of this chic dining room was painted but it gives such warmth. Also I adore the geometric painted floors! {via}

This chair is so inviting and the purple adds just the right amount of color to a mostly neutral space {via}

Plum can feel so traditional at times too - I love it mixed here contrasted with Swedish antiques {via}

How fun is this purple velvet plaid sofa? Sounds crazy but it really works here! {via}

A toned down plum is so calming {via}

This oversized pendant is wonderful and even with the such minimal furniture, the bedroom is really memorable! {via}

Lavender Lovelies

I know I am far from alone, but I am just totally nuts for purple lately! I actually think my subconscious love of purple began with a special pair of lavender glitter jelly sandals I got at around age four. I have never recovered and still adore purple - especially the soft and cool tones of lavender - it's modern but feminine, cool but inviting! So, here are few of the lavender rooms I covet most . . .

{I adore the image above - and those charming window treatments! via} 

Mixed with natural linens and modern lines, lavender gives a boost of personality! {via}

The pale, pale lavender glossy lampshades are a lovely touch {via}

A simple entry goes lavender! {via}

Perhaps a little too frilly to live with, but a lavender dressing room like this is pretty amazing {via}

What a great paint treatment in here too {via}

Love the layering of purples {via Domino}

Lavender velvet tufted headboard - gorgeous! {via}

 No promises I will not overwhelm you with more purple later - but for today I had my lavender fix!
