I think these lilac bedrooms, from the November 09' issue of Living Etc., are wonderfully sweet and feminine. B would never stand for a purple bedroom, but I think this color offers a romantic, calming quality, especially when paired with grey.

So serene...I just want to fall into that first bed and stay there all week long.

These look so cozy. I like lilac mixed with whites and greys.
omg love these beds! gray--my fav color!!!
these are beautiful...the first bed is positively dreamy!
I heart that headboard in the first image! This colour is so serene and lovely - perfect for a guest room.
I like the lilac color. It's just beautiful in these rooms. =)
Oh yes, with greys and whites....FAB! Love that first bed too!
Lavender is quite lovely paired with grey! We painted our office (aka cluttered Etsy shop storage room) lavender about 6 months ago, but we haven't found the right drapes/artwork combo yet, so it still feels a bit off. My husband isn't so fond of it yet, but I know I can make it cool with a little work. Organizing it and pulling it all together is my one my "winter projects" list.
Oh these rooms are so soft and cosy looking..mauve is meant to be a great colour for a bedroom..relaxing and calming. x
such a lovely color for a bedroom or a sofa...
beee-you-tiful! just lovely.
this is not really related, but i got some lavender soap for christmas. i think the color is lovely, but i sure think lavender STINKS as far as scents go. :/
So pretty. Did you ever see my post on my daughter Kara's nursery? Her walls are lilac and I used a few gray accents. You can check out the post here: http://tiny.cc/8PN88
It is probably my favorite room in the house!
Those are great. Love the first bed! I was thinking of doing a purple bedroom in our new house, but probably a darker shade as I feel it tends to be more masculine than lilac (which I do love but would be hard pressed to convince my husband to go for!)
Gorgeous! I chose this colour paired with gray for our Guest Bedroom. Lovely.
I'm not a purple person either, but Real Simple just did a spread on decorating with purple.

But they might scare your fiance
Oh! I want a lilac bedroom! I was so inspired by the decor in the Drew Barrymore film Grey Gardens and I want want want. But I share my bedroom with my husband and 8 month old son and they think its "too girly mummy!"
i love lilac bedrooms.
My bedroom in my house in the arroyo was lilac, it was amazingly cosy and romantic!
