Home design and runway fashion do not diverge greatly when it comes to trends. That said, the forecast from Vogue is that this summer is all about a lack of colour, and a lack of coverage that will be translated to home trends too. The word from the street chic is that undergarments will be making more of a public appearance this year than any other. Peeps of lace and ruffles are to be expected, and even on display underneath see through mesh dresses.

As for interior design trends for 2010, expect a return to the neutrals for walls, carpet, and furniture. Like the balance occurring with the safe trendy colours and immodest combinations in clothing, so will be the trends in home decoration. Layering of similar shades, with pops of brilliantly sexy undertones. Inject a romantic airs into your abode that you will be both admired and remembered for.
