Shoparound: Splash out on a bit of colour to give a fresh new look to your bedroom and livingroom. Bold and brazen prints and seriously textured fabrics are hot in the cushion and throw stakes this season.

Check out the new Zanzibar range from Pier in Roches Stores. Cushions come in an exotic mix of tribal prints and vibrant patterns, with lots of attitude and texture.

Colours such as paprika, fuchsia, and aqua combine to create a stunning ethnic feel. Cushions are priced from €22.

Also new to Pier this season is the Geisha range inspired by Japanese style and design. The colour palette is feminine and elegant, including sage and spring greens, rose, dusty pink, lavender, heather, primrose, mink, stone and black.

Always good for fun and funky cushions, Habitat has some great new floral print cushions.

The new Hothouse large floral print cushion comes in a mix of colours. We like the sky blue, navy and red print. Price €15. The brash Margo cushion in orange, green and yellow has a very 1960s feel and is priced at €40.

Habitat's two-tone teal and lime green or red and sky blue throws will complete the look.

A little pricier, but oh-so-beautiful are the new Missoni cushions at Bottom Drawer in Brown Thomas.

Missoni doesn't shy away from big colours and its palette of golds, purples and reds is guaranteed to jazz up your black or white leather sofa.

Price €95 for cotton print cushions and €195 for matching pure marino wool.

Give your bedroom an opulent makeover with some glamorous cushions and throws from Irish designer Ros Murphy's Emperor's Robes collection.

Her raspberry silk velvet cushion embossed with gold powder cushions will bring out the boudoir in any bedroom. Price €135. Beaded silk velvet throws to match cost €450.
