Hermes... a little or a lot?

a little...
This Hermes tray in Olivia Palermo's NYC apartment adds a touch of luxe glam and a bold splash of colour to an otherwise neutral room

or


a lot...
Interior designer Sara Story used the burnt orange of the Hermes box as inspiration for her home.
She also shops at Hermes alot apparently!!
I don't dispute the boxes are a beautiful colour and the brand is the ultimate in luxury, however at the end of the day I just can't help but think it's a little OTT.Your thoughts?

The splash of orange in the living room looks perfect!

I wonder what happens when Sara gets over orange. It's everywhere *gasp*
