One of my favourite new colours to look out for this Spring is aqua. Though re-doing a room in this cool watery tone might be a bit much, you can always dip your toe in and choose aqua accessories to freshen up a neutral decor. I'll be adding vases like this to my home. Filled with fresh flowers near a bright window, it'll make me think of warmer days to come. Adiantum Vase, $10, Eighteen Karat, 1-888-849-8811.
