Some people bring color to your feed before you even realize you've clicked "follow." Ellen Voppen ( @ellenvoppen ) is one such person. Her style is bold yet soft. She combines bubblegum pink with mustard yellow, wears statement earrings like confetti, and makes her home a party without clown costumes or streamers. Here, color is a feeling, not a gimmick.
This is reflected in her hallway. There's Funky Town, a print full of fuchsia, orange, and purple, with flowers and hearts that dance just off-beat. The Portuguese tile floor keeps it playful, and the lavender stool completes the look. Nothing is too much. Everything is perfect.
In the bright living room further down, Purple Waves is a combination of lavender and deep blue. While this rug is less exuberant, it's perfect for that quiet corner with a pink stool, a blue vase, and a brightly colored sneaker that suddenly takes center stage. Just like Ellen herself.
Because her home isn't just colorful—it's just as fresh and cheerful as her wardrobe. Think: a bright pink pinstripe vest, yellow sneakers with metallic details, and earrings that could easily be art pieces. She wears our LilaLine earrings the way she chooses a mat: with boldness, color, and a touch of humor.
What do we take from this?
Let color tell the story without needing to explain. Dare to incorporate the floor into your styling and wear your home like you wear your favorite outfit: with joy.
