Anatomy of Grey

Soft greys - calming, romantic, peaceful and deliciously antique. Although it has often and traditionally been accessorized with silver, it also looks wonderful with aged cream and with gold. I had thought that I wouldn't find many examples to fall in love with, but there were so many I'm going to have trouble fitting them all into one blog, so here goes; light on words today but rich in visuals, details, texture, glitter, delicate antiques and plush comfort.
The antique greys:

Gold...
Silver and cream...

Ach!

 Cream..<3

Such delicate linen, just gorgeous
 The retro glam:


With lilac and with pink:

The modern, with glitter and fur textures:Floor to ceiling velvet...
Glamor
Tweedy headboard, softened by expensive bed linen:
The fur! The fur!
 Fantastic contemporary take on a traditional chandelier
and my two absolute favorites...this stunning mural in soft greys that makes a room magnificent:
...and this incredible negative image queen wallpaper set against the most perfect grey shade of velvet couch and pale gold cushion...heaven.
