Valspar

Really Romantic

V075-3

Really Romantic is a light muted lavender with a gray pink undertone. The gray pink base keeps the lavender restrained. Keep it for a bedroom, dressing room, or bath where softness matters but clear pink would be too sweet.

On full walls, the gray base keeps the color restrained. Warm white trim suits it; silver hardware also works. Yellowed trim can make the lavender look dusty, so compare first.

Really Romantic in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
