What colour shall I decorate lounge and bedroom?

Q. My hsband and I want to decorate the hosue that we are renting and have got permission. We have a lilac sofa and blue carpet, have you any wall colour ideas which would look nice with these and create a warm atmosphere? Also what colours/design ideas do you have for a bedroom? We want to create a sexy boudoir, but not have to bright a colour o nthe walls. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

A. Lilac and blue then you could create the colours of Provence in your room
picture a Lavender field a warm Summer breeze blowing and white sheers blowing happily in the room and you will have the boudoir of your dreams, paint the walls a warm gold here is a picture to give an idea

You should carry the colours all trough the house to tie it all together in the foyer add a tall glass vase filled with Lavender and hang a nice ornate mirror above a small hall table

What is a good way to decorate a bedroom? Function soft fabrics and items for a room that is?
Q. currently lacking in areas; there is no headboard on the bed,
the person doesn't know where or what to store socks and belts, and things like this in or on.

the main concern is nothing tacky, weird, unfunctional
But instead,
modest, fun , pretty, comfortable, and useable looks for a room.

Any ideas?

A. for the head board you could make your own , buy a piece of plywood look enough to cover the back of the bed and by adding some batting and fabric you can make one

or you could find a gate

a door , or even add molding and get some nice wallpaper like a toile for instance and have that as a headboard.

For you storage I have no idea on the look that you want to accomplish but for the belt you can buy a hanger that is made especially to hang belts, for the socks you can use this pieces of furniture that are in the picture that I'm inclosing ,there is a lot of storage for your things and anything that you no longer wear ,give it away to charity this way you have more room for the current things that you have .
