I really need new blinds but what to get?

Please help me!
We have tatty vertical blinds in most of our windows and blackouts that need replacing in dc rooms.
So for new blinds, verticals look dated, ditto with voiles. Our windows are big - 2 metres wide. What shall we do oh wise ones?

Roman blinds are nice.

Thankyou muchly. Will have a look for some fabrics. Maybe roller blinds up and Roman blinds downstairs!

If you get roman blinds made ask for thermal linings or interlining, even with double glazing thick curtains and blinds make a noticeable difference.
