Room Envy: Pretty Little Liars

Does anyone here watch Pretty Little Liars and suffer from room envy? I'm not even going to talk about the styling because I'd kill for Spencer and Hanna's wardrobe and so would millions of girls out there. In terms of room decor, I think I'm more of a Spencer + Aria. Every time I see their rooms, I get some form of inspiration of how to tweak mine to have the same effect be it adding or subtracting stuff. If only Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters were easily available in Singapore. It also helps that my parents are crazy about decor so they'd just buy me stuff omg where art thou Anthropologie and UO?!

Aria's room is so cozy and bohemian chic. Her room reminds me of mine because of the amount of woodwork in it. Besides my bed with a mixture of steel and wooden frames, everything else is pure wood. The color scheme of her room seems to be mostly warm colors like different shades of purple, brown, cream, etc. The different shades of warm colors used contributes to the perception of depth of her room so it's not too monotonous and dark. The only thing I dislike about her room is probably the small closet. Realistically, I don't think the amount of clothes Aria has can fit in there but we all know this is just a show.




Spencer sometimes reminds me of myself. The OCD, the bossiness, the perfectionist, and of course her style. Her room has more of a preppy glamorous theme with the four-post bed, mirrored furniture, closet with french doors, and the numerous floral prints everywhere from the walls to the sheets. I'd love to have these elements in my room but sadly, my room isn't big enough and my parents are more into wooden furniture. If my house had a termite infestation, the entire thing would be gone. That's how much wood there is.

The color scheme of her room is very light and incorporates colors like shades of pink, white, and the occasional injection of red and black to tie everything together. There's a mish mash of prints in her room but somehow everything seems to go together because they either match in terms of prints or color, for e.g. her bed.

The color and decor elements of Spencer's room is something I'm trying to achieve. It's possible to add elegance and glamor to a room just by maybe adding some photographs with black or white frames to the wall, stacking coffee table books on the bookshelf as decor, and adding a lot of white to the room in general. I have done that by using only acrylic Muji drawers on my dresser to store makeup, standardizing my storage system by mostly using Muji's linen boxes which are cream colored, and storage boxes from Ikea in pink or red. I feel that standardization is key to achieving a Spencer-esque room. It's more visually-appealing too.

Love her outfit so so much!




As I go through the series, I hope I'll be able to capture more screen shots of their rooms. The last photo is so lame because it's so dark but it's a study desk so I thought I'll get away with not mentioning that since not everyone has a study desk i.e. me!

Hopefully this post has been of some help because I had fun breaking it down for you. Have a lovely day!
