Navy is back, and it’s not the nautical-themed, prep school staple you remember. The new navy blends old-world elegance with contemporary patterns and playful pops of color for a look that’s anything but traditional.

Whether you’re hunting for a fresh neutral for your yet-to-be-determined baby boy or girl or just hoping to trade in the typical pink or blue motif for something with a little more staying power, navy may be just the color you’re looking for! Pair with pastels for a soft, sophisticated look, or go bold with bright orange, yellow or green accents. Whatever palette you choose, don’t forget to add a little sparkle. Nothing makes navy look richer than a touch of silver or gold!

Need a little inspiration? This collection of navy nurseries is sure to get your imagination rolling.
