These Photos Prove Jessica Alba's Daughters Have Better Bedrooms Than Most Grown Women

Tip 1: You can't have too many pillows

"Mix and match throw pillows that vary in size and shape for a totally original look. A good formula is to pair a bigger, bolder print with a smaller scale print and a statement icon or word pillow."

Tip 2: Create dimension

"A good trick when trying to create dimension on a night stand or desk is to build different levels on the space. You can create this by stacking books of different heights and then placing your accessories, such as a pencil holder or a picture frame, on top. Having containers for all your essentials – a jewelry box, a magazine organizer and a tray or two, will help keep your space clean. Try to keep all of these containers matching. Our favorite is gold!"

Tip 3: Combine old and new

"One of our favorite design tricks is to mix old pieces along with new ones. Put your favorite photographs in vintage frames, and tack up vintage postcards and keepsakes to your pin board."

Tip 4: Organize for display

"A full-height bookcase, such as the Maison bookcase, will allow you to stay organized as well as maximize the vertical space in a room. Alternate shelves of books – held in place with playful bookends – with printed or patterned boxes and baskets for stylish storage. Display your favorite memento on a stack of books to mix up heights, and encase both accessories and keepsakes in cloches and jewelry boxes."

Tip 5: Mix patterns

"Stripes, scallops, polka dots, and sequins might sound like an unlikely mix, but together they are magic! An easy rule to follow when mixing prints is to keep the color palette similar – you can’t go wrong with black, white, and gold!"

Tip 6: Don't neglect comfort spaces

"For a cozy reading corner pick a stunning piece of furniture you will want to relax on. Use a mix of stripes and animal print pillows to make the space cozy and uniquely yours."
