For those who want to give their boudoir a Regency-era makeover, just a few easy design tips will add a royal touch to your room.
To truly live like a noble, take a few notes from the show's playbook.
REGENCYCORE REVAMP
Bridgerton's popularity has led to a rise in the Regencycore aesthetic, a fashion trend inspired by Regency England in the early 1800s.
If you are a fan of your favorite characters' estates, you might just be ready to channel your inner Queen Charlotte when it comes to your design choices.

Clare Schifano, interior expert at luxury bed and mattress retailer And So To Bed, has revealed how you, too, can live like royalty.
COLOR ME ROYAL
Schifano's first tip is to change up your color scheme.
She explained how Regencycore can be separated into a couple of different - but equally decadent - design looks.
You can choose soft pastels and floral designs or opt for darker hues, depending on your taste.

Think rich, royal reds, blue tones, and throws made of heavy jacquard, a fabric with designs woven in.
If you're feeling more aligned with the aesthetics of the Featherington family, you might prefer their pastel interiors with pops of color.
Fans of the show are likely familiar with their eye-catching lime green, bright orange, and canary yellow interiors.
Their home also incorporates soft powder pink and sage greens.

For a moodier motif, Schifano suggests using navy blues, "damson, rich burgundy," and "dazzling emeralds."
Take inspiration from Penelope, who can be seen wearing more romantic colors this season.
DESIGN OF YOUR BEDROOM DREAMS
After you pick your color palette, Schifano recommends tying everything in with your bedding, walls, curtains, rugs, and ornaments.
"The bed is often the biggest - and grandest - piece of furniture in a bedroom and is what the eye instantly sees when it enters the space," she said.
"With this in mind, the style of your bed is vital in dictating the ‘feel’ of your bedroom."

Beds with wooden gilded frames and upholstered headboards are signatures of the time period.
She is also a fan of the four-poster bed.
"This classic frame can upgrade any bedroom, with added gold or silver leaf taking it to the upper echelon of the Ton - certainly giving Lady Whistledown something to talk about," she said.
GO GOLD
For an even more glam effect, glitz your furniture trimmings with gold.
This revamp is sure to add regal style to your space.

From mirrors to lampshades, go gold crazy.
She also recommends using the shade against a wood backdrop.
"Instantly bring that antique feel to your boudoir," she said.
FLOORED
A more affordable way to invoke some Regencycore is through your rugs.
No re-carpeting is necessary.

"Persian rugs were highly fashionable during the Regency era and are perfect for adding some timeless beauty to a more contemporary space," she said.
Another trick involves making the rug a prominent centerpiece of the room.
Simply place it along the side of the bed or underneath.
This will also "open up" the space.
WOW WALLS
Queen Charlotte would certainly agree with adding a "bold" feature wall to your bedroom decor.
"Incorporating botanical and jacquard wallpapers as part of your regency pallet will bring some personality to your room, while also adding a dose of glamour," she said.

To ensure the space doesn't feel cramped, choose one feature wall in the bedroom.
She recommends the wall behind your bed as the best choice for incorporating a standout wallpaper.
