Yes, the colour of your bedding can affect how well you sleep
Posted: 26 March 2025
Colour psychology is a real thing. The shade of your linen sheets can play a huge role in how well you sleep, which is why we’ve researched the dreamiest colour to fall asleep to (and why we’re bringing it to your bedroom).
Today we’re guiding you through the thought process behind our latest style, Sky Blue.
We’ve always loved how blue can make you feel instantly calm, so here we are bringing that feeling straight to your bedroom.
"Imagine the perfect weekend away to your favourite coastal town. Sky Blue evokes those nostalgic moments of slowing down, enjoying coastal walks, and quiet moments. It puts you in a calm and serene frame of mind.” - Lauren Roe
- Lauren, Founder
That was the inspiration behind Sky Blue, to help you feel calm. And, it’s not just anecdotal. Research shows that nature-based colours (particularly those the colour of water) may promote relaxation due to us associating them with a clear sky or a body of water.
If we dig even deeper into the science, experts explain that the ganglion cells in our retina are the most sensitive to the colour blue, and when our retina picks up blues it's relayed to the brain to help reduce blood pressure and heart rate.
A pretty bedroom and a relaxed nervous system… it’s a yes from us *adds Sky Blue to cart*
Say hello to the perfect weekend away.
Sky Blue isn’t just the perfect colour for catching Z’s, it’s about creating a little escape in your everyday life. Picture the calm of a weekend getaway, but without having to pack a bag. It’s pure paradise.
This soothing shade is a gentle nudge to unwind. And, after a long day, who doesn’t want a little extra zen in their life?
Pair the calming effects of Sky Blue with our deliciously soft linen and you’ve got a recipe for 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
Here are the 3 reasons you need Sky Blue linen sheets in your bedroom.
1. Sky Blue works all year long (it’s a timeless shade)
2. It brings the outdoors in
3. It’s a colour everyone loves
We sat down with our founder (and the brains behind Sky Blue), Lauren, to get a deeper look at what the colour means to her.
What made you design a shade like Sky Blue?
Blue shades are always so calming to style with, and having explored deeper and darker shades already I knew it was time to craft a soft and delicate shade and so Sky Blue linen was born.
Why should I Love Linen shoppers choose Sky Blue?
If you're struggling to feel calm in your own bedroom then colour choice is a really important thing to consider, and Sky Blue linen sheets will assist in creating a tranquil sleeping space.
How long have you been planning and designing Sky Blue?
It's been over a year in planning. We wanted to make sure the linen sheet sets, quilt cover sets, fitted sheets, etc were perfect before launching them.
