Calling all insomniacs.

If like me, you find it impossible to sleep on occasion and have tried every single sleep trick there is, this will be of interest. Not sleeping properly takes its toll on every aspect of your life and this tip, simple as it might sound, is well worth a go. According to sleep experts, blue (in varying shades) is the best choice to create a peaceful, serene environment that's conducive to the land of nod.

If blue walls sound a little offputting, you could get tired of them very quickly, blue bedclothes are in with a shout. In conversation with My Domaine, interior designer Brian Patrick Flynn says that blue-grey is the way to go. You can see how this together with white, as he recommends, would create a 'calm and tranquil' atmosphere. Kimberley Ayres is also a fan of blue saying that when it comes to specific shades, duck egg blue works best especially when paired with champagne hues.

Her top tip is to choose a pale shade of the colour you go for, rather than a strong tone as this could be too heavy for the 'chill' atmosphere you're after. You can probably tell that at this stage I'm willing to try anything, blue bedding it is...
