Realistic Chic is a budding author - who has had her short-fiction published - and an amateur clothing designer. This blog is started in an effort to chronicle the decorating and renovating of my first condo as well as to share my creative passions and blab about fashion (including the occasional period reproduction), photography, online shopping, art, vintage paraphernalia, DIY, and life. Thanks so much for visiting and feel free to share a comment!

Colours to watch for
Okay, so there were a lot of oranges, turquoises, purples and especially greys in style for 2009. Although I don't think our eyes have finished feasting on the lovely shades within those colours, here's a little bit of which colours I think will be prevalent in 2010 in both fashion and home decor:
Dark navy blues and soft blushes, a new take on a classic parisian-inspired feminine palate.
Photo is"tutu-rose" by Eleonore Bridge.
Mustard yellow instead of the bright orange:
Muted brighter tones like this grapefruit colour (the vibrant coral we've seen so much of lately is growing a little tired):
Emerald green:
(can't remember where I found this, if you know msg me)
And other muted bright tones that seem halfway between jewels and pastels (although the odd jewel tone is always a good thing):
What colours do you think will be hot in 2010?
