Unicorns and happiness! It’s not just iridescent darkness that’s trending, lightness is also popping up everywhere in a big way from fashion to DIY to furniture. So cheer up and get your sparkle on!

Purple rain and dark, rock and roll iridescence has been stuck in my head on repeat for days now. I love the ’80s glam-ness of this retro-fresh trend. Do you guys fall down Instagram rabbit holes, too? ‘Cause Tom Dixon has been using #tdiridescence to promote his new Oil and Warp collections and the tag is quite inspirational.

Light, bright iridescent is also having a moment (hello unicorns and rainbows!!). Check back here on Wednesday for my Iridescent Lightness mood board!
