Pretty Prudent Trend: Matte Black

At first I couldn’t tell if I was just clinging on to the dark hues of winter, but then I realized it was the contrast of matte black with bright white and spring colors that was really drawing me in. The thing I like most about matte black is that it perfectly melds together the aged look of rustic decor, with the clean finish usually associated with modern decor.  I’m not quite ready to go all glossy and modern, so this is a happy medium. Consider picking up an accessory or two and notice how it can easily bring new life to your space and style.
