Last year was red and silver.

This year, in honour of our little boy, it will be blue and gold. I also use glass or clear plastic decorations to add sparkle near the lights. We won't put the tree up until after my birthday but I've already been buying decorations. I love the little birds you can clip to the branches.

I have to stop buying decorations and see what I already have packed away. Blue is hard to get, but I figure if there's not enough I'll just get some nice ribbon and make bows. I also have a couple of photo decorations with DS's photo in them.
