Looking for interior inspiration? Top 5 best décor blogs are just a click away

If you’re looking for interior-design inspiration, forget about searching magazines, homeware stores, decorators and stylists for the latest trends and tips - simply turn on your computer instead.  Interior blogs are mushrooming in number and popularity, as they are the quickest and easiest way to access the latest news from the world of interiors.

Last year, leading British interiors brand Amara held the inaugural Amara Interior Blog Awards (IBA) to find the best creatives, aesthetes and innovators in the world of décor.  The winning blogs covered topics including design, lifestyle, colour, apartment living, and all things new and unusual. 

According to Karen Waddilove, head of PR and media at Amara, it is not the differences between these sites, but rather the similarities that makes each so successful.  “A good blog across all categories should have its own identity,” she explains. “It should be written about current affairs, seasons, holidays - in fact, everything that is current in the writer’s life. The content should not be random but be well thought-out, relevant and with knowledge. The posts should be engaging, entertaining, unique and personal to the blog style. Images are also important, being of good quality and size, and should again complement the theme of the site.”

We have scoured the internet and come up with a shortlist of five of the best décor blogs out there today, each offering something just a little different, whether you are a lover of colour, a bohemian at heart or a collector of life’s little luxuries.
