3 Bougie-Boujee Upgrades That Elevate Everyday Living
Language evolves, and so do style trends. Bougie (boo-she) and boujee (boo-ghee) both come from the French word bourgeoisie, but today they describe a certain vibe—polished, elevated, and just a little indulgent. Think luxury that feels good, not loud.
If you love the idea of upgrading a perfectly good home with thoughtful touches, these three bougie-boujee updates focus on calm, privacy, and comfort.
Serenity: Color That Soothes
The most inviting homes feel peaceful the moment you step inside. Instead of relying on traditional grays or beiges, try a soft, barely-there blush. Shades like Sherwin-Williams’ Fancy Pink or Benjamin Moore’s Fruited Plains add warmth and sophistication while keeping the space light and serene.
Privacy: Light Control with Style
Privacy doesn’t have to come from heavy curtains or basic blinds. Plantation shutters offer a clean, elevated look while allowing you to control light and visibility with ease. They feel intentional, timeless, and effortlessly upscale.
Comfort: Small Changes, Big Payoff
Luxury often shows up in the details you feel rather than see. Quality insulation helps regulate temperature, reduce noise, and make a home feel cozier year-round. Pair that with mindful decluttering to open up your space, and add multifunctional pieces like ottomans for comfort that adapts to your lifestyle.
