Decor Trends - The Blues

One color that is popping up everywhere this year is the beautiful Monaco Blue. It breathes tranquility into a space and takes you to a place by the sea. Picture the Amalfi Coast or Santorini with splashes of white against a pristine clear blue sky or little white boats on a crystal clear blue ocean.
