Social media has been loudly opposing the 'quiet luxury' trend in interiors for some time now, but Jessica Simpson's crystal-encrusted entryway is definitive proof that we may have moved past the understated decor style.
We spotted the entryway idea in the background of an Instagram post shared by acclaimed photographer Gillian Laub, and it puts Versailles to shame. Jessica's space features forest green walls adorned with crystal wall sconces, a gilded mirror, and a leather chair. A leopard print cushion adds an unexpectedly fun detail. The space doesn't whisper luxury; it screams it.
Though it's all striking, Jessica's bold entryway lighting is the main feature that draws our eyes in and keeps us staring. Crystal pendant lights, sconces, and candelabras fill the space with brilliance and unapologetic opulence. Gold, crystal, and pearl are the names of the game.
Effortlessly elegant, this chandelier speaks for itself. The modern shape gives it an intriguing boho chic feel.
This set of three mirrors gives any wall a vintage feel. I love the detail and they are perfect for building a stylish gallery wall.
This beautiful wall sconce has all the glamor of a crystal chandelier with easier install. I think it would look beautiful on either side of an entryway for a stunning cohesive look.
Luckily for those of us who are also over the quiet luxury trend, Jessica's look is easy to recreate with the right lighting picks.
Sheena Marundan, design expert at Archic Furniture, explains: 'Elegant pendant lights, when chosen thoughtfully, create a sense of drama and flair as soon as you enter the space. They draw the eye upwards and add a touch of glamor. Pendant lights can contribute to the ambiance and warmth of the entryway. With the right lighting, the space can feel inviting and comfortable, setting the mood for guests.'
Beyond being what's replacing quiet luxury, this kind of lighting has several practical benefits.
Sheena tells Homes & Gardens: 'Pendant lights often serve as a focal point in the entryway. They can be selected to complement the overall design theme, whether it's a crystal chandelier for classic elegance or a modern pendant for contemporary style.'
She continues, 'Pendant lights offer practical illumination, ensuring the entryway is well-lit, making it safe and functional. Consider pendant lights with dimmer switches to adjust the lighting level according to the occasion.'
Though quiet luxury styles will never fully fade away, spaces like Jessica Simpson's green hallway shed light on the timeless allure of loud luxury decor. This beautiful decor style is easy to love with its effortless drama and flair. Goodbye beige, hello glamor.
