living room inspiration: blue sofas

Oh my gosh. I probably started 3 different posts tonight and continually kept getting stuck. Hopefully when this horrendous case of writer’s block goes away and I’ll go back to them, but the silver lining to this story is that my procrastination efforts led me to this unexpected round up.

So in the meantime, blue couches! I would have never even thought about buying a blue couch a few months ago. The initial thought seems so unpractical and limiting to your decor options– like you would be locked in to one look forever (or however long you kept the couch). But after seeing the different way these pieces are styled, the blue almost seems to act like a neutral. It can be paired with so many different colors!

Here’s what I found (from the top left):

1. Tailor Sofa from Crate and Barrel
2. Jonathan Adler chair styled by Emily Henderson (this whole home makeover she did is great, so you should definitely click on that link)
3. I love the clean lines of Elsie’s Sofa on A Beautiful Mess
4. Bri’s (from Design Love Fest) living room is so great, she got two photos. This was also styled by Emily Henderson. I’m starting to adore that woman, and to think I totally rooted against her on Design Star! Now 4 years later, I’m glad she won that season.

So what’s the verdict on blue couches? Like them? Hate them? Would you put a blue couch in your living room?
