Could it have been 'Emily in Paris', a comedy drama about an American in Paris, the recent Netflix drama that inspired the trend but style bloggers have been recommending French interior style. To quote one style blogger, Stephi LaReine, 'Facile sophistication is emblematic of the French. Be it the act of doing themselves up or the process of beautifying their residences, the French have an instinctive capacity to come up with an exhilarating blend of acumen and magnificence with consummate ease. They effectively amalgamate the old with the new.'
 
Choose a French stone fireplace, balconette metalwork, real wood flooring, stunning old reclaimed doors and shutters, a large gilded mirror together with other and statement pieces. Do not match decorative items or furniture instead use colour and different types of wood. Nothing needs to 'look perfect' but always add fresh flowers. Seeking French inspiration watch, the 'Emily in Paris' series on Netflix or better still visit the real Paris, France; when travel restrictions allow. In the meantime see more from the Russh blog on 'seven ways to style your home like a French girl' at the link below.
