Add a Touch of Glam to Your Bedroom: Dark and Sexy

Dark and sexy doesn't automatically mean tacky and sleazy! Black provides an air of romance to any style of bedroom but if you want to move it out of the realms of tacky introduce a complimentary colour such as gold or silver – eek I hear you cry!! You need to look beyond the colour to see the style that can be achieved using luxury bedding, rugs, lighting and accessories.

If you have a boring overhead central ceiling light swap it for a modern chandelier style in black, coordinate with matching bedside table lamps to bring things together in a cohesive way. Use a variety of tactile fabrics such as faux furs, silks and suede for window dressings and soft furnishings.

A statement headboard can up-date your bed frame and give you bedroom a hotel chic style. If you look for interior design ideas online you'll find a host of great styles and designs of statement headboards you can modify to suit the style of your bedroom and your colour scheme.

If you want your bedroom to be truly dark don't forget to add blackout curtains or use blackout blinds to help reduce the amount of light pollution entering your bedroom.
