So, darling, have you heard? Britain has spoken and the verdict on the UNCOOLEST home décor trends is in, and oh, it’s juicy! Brace yourselves, because some of these might just be lurking in your living room.
At the top of the no-no list, we have coloured bathroom suites in, wait for it, brown, avocado, or salmon pink—44% of young Brits agree these are a major faux pas in any chic abode. Sorry to break it to you, but your loo might just be out of vogue!
And it’s not just bathrooms getting the cold shoulder. Those plastic flowers you thought were ever so practical?
A whopping 32% of decor-savvy Brits would rather see them in the bin than on your window sill. Lace curtains, fluffy toilet seat covers, and, dare I say, bohemian artefacts like African masks are also cringing their way out of fashion.
Now, hold onto your hats because white faux leather sofas, shag pile rugs, and those magnolia walls that were once the epitome of trendiness?
They’re now considered passé by the cool crowd. And let’s not forget the classic “Beware of the dog” sign—might as well be a Beware of bad taste sign, darling!
But here’s a silver lining from our friends at Terry’s Fabrics—89% believe that all interior trends make a comeback eventually.
So don’t toss out those leopard print rugs or Artex ceilings just yet. Who knows? They might be the next big thing again!
As for spending habits, Brits are not shy about splurging on their nests, averaging £1,508 a year on sprucing up their spaces. And it’s not just a woman’s world anymore; 78% of men are now diving into the decor pool with gusto.
So, whether you’re a design diva or a newbie navigating the fierce world of fashions in furnishing, remember, sometimes those “mistakes” are just a trend waiting to reboot.
Keep it sassy, keep it classy, and maybe keep that fluffy toilet seat just in case!
And if you’re wondering whether your home decor might be secretly screaming ‘uncool,’ well, now you know the top trends to avoid or embrace for that bold comeback.
Keep it fabulous, and remember, it’s all about making your space your stage!

Here are 5 ways to Improve Your Walk After 50 💪🙌
1. Focus on Posture
Maintaining good posture is crucial as you age. Stand tall with your shoulders back, head aligned with your spine, and engage your core muscles. This will not only improve your walk but also reduce strain on your back and joints.
2. Strengthen Your Muscles
Incorporate strength training exercises into your routine to keep your leg and core muscles strong. Squats, leg raises, and calf raises can all help improve your walking efficiency and stability.
3. Stretch Regularly
Flexibility plays a key role in maintaining a healthy gait. Dedicate time to stretching exercises, especially for your legs and lower back, to enhance range of motion and prevent stiffness.
4. Wear Supportive Footwear
Choose shoes that offer proper support and cushioning. Avoid high heels or unsupportive flats, as they can cause discomfort and impact your walking style negatively. Opt for footwear that is designed for walking or athletic activities.
5. Practice Balance Exercises
Balance tends to decline with age, increasing the risk of falls. Incorporate balance exercises such as standing on one leg or using a balance board to enhance stability and coordination while walking.
