Even though Honeysuckle and Turquoise are extremly popular colors right now, I am still drawn to purple for a tween or teen rooms.  Purple is not as "girlie" as pink yet it still enables you to hold onto a little bit of femininity in your tween or teen's bedroom.

Purple is the color of royalty, purple is luxurious, purple, when used right, is sofisticated and purple can make a wonderfully understated room look amazing. 

Purple is a unique color, being an almost equal combination of both a warm and a cool color (red and blue), it can be combined with either warm or cool colors, or both, or used on its own in a room and still look lovely.  And purple has enough sofistication that it is not only great for a baby's room, but it can make a fun, whimsical and sofisticated tween or teen room.

I love the look of this purple room.  The shag rug and pillows keep the room feeling young and would be the perfect place for your tweens/teens to have gab sessions after school.

This mod bedroom is whimsical and shows how purple, combined with cool colors, can look both fresh and sophisticated.

I love this room and it does a great job showing how purple, when combined with warm colors, can feel inviting and luxurious.

Have you incorporated purple into your tween or teen's bedroom?
