I saw a beautiful ruffle one in Next but think it may be too much plain purple. Our walls are all purple and the wardrobes are cream.

A while back I saw a perfect black/silver/purple material but cannot for the life of me remember where it was :(

Any beautiful bedroom ideas???

Share them with me please.......

Home bargains? I would think aubergine could be more purple in real life?

Very reasonably priced :D

There are others on the Next website if you search purple bedding. I'd be inclined to break it up by introducing a third colour. Since you've got a cream wardrobe I'd steer clear of black/grey/silver personally. What colour is your carpet? Would a contrast like an appley green work, or a deep red / bright pink for a richer look. Add a couple of cushions to tie into what else you have.

We're about to have plum on walls with one wall cream to break it up, cream carpet and curtains, plum bedding, green throw, mix purple and green lamps, green vases and greeny fake flowers. Would go more girly / sumptuous if didn't have dh to think of. Next also have a gorgeous peacock cushion that's purple with a bit of teal and Dwell have some cushions with insects on in a similar but more tasteful vein (have an eye on them for a future lounge makeover) which might inspire you.
