Colour Trend: Coo-Coo for Copper

It’s time to get a little bit more rustic, ladies. When it comes to current colour trends, nothing seems to be quite as captivating as copper when it comes to home decor, fashion, and even beauty. It seems as though right when Canada took away our pennies, they were melted down and transformed into these brilliant new products for us to adore, and keep some copper in our lives. As we know, copper is pricy, so it can cost you a few dollars to infuse some into your life, but we’ve found some affordable options to brighten up your home or your wardrobe if you are as coo-coo for copper as we are.

You can find pieces made from actual copper, or things that have been painted to look just as nice. ASOS is a great online store to find lots of copper at very affordable prices.
