The pictures above – having popped up and circulated on various interior design blogs this fall – is somewhat iconic of the Parisian Chic Interior Style. Pictures one can look at and ponder for a quite a while, it’s something with the atmosphere.. It’s a contemporary yet traditional style. Below is a more loose Parisian style, more arty Parisian, a bit less “chic”.

And whilst speaking of Parisian chic, it is interesting to note that the Danish fashion empire Day Birger et Mikkelsen points out Parisian Rock Chic Style as a must-have look this Christmas season:

French-style bedrooms are romantic and sophisticated as well as seriously trendey. To create a French look, stick to one colour theme (for example pale blue, green, gold or pink) and team with distressed or whitewashed furniture. A sumptuous chandelier, soft floor-length curtains with tassle tiebacks and some antique items to give a shabby chic feel will further add to the look. And most importantly, allow a fab French style bed to take centre-stage in the room! I love the dramatic carved headboards of Louis XIV-style beds – if it’s good enough for royalty it’s good enough for me I reckon! :)

Take a look at these examples (both from the Living etc gallery)
