It is not like the black and white concept is new or anything, but the contrasting color duo is very much on the scene. The best part about a black and white color palette is any color (yes, any) makes for a beautiful, bold statement when paired with the two. For instance, take this pillow from Stacy Hyde ($200). It goes with just about anything, whether your pad is decked out in soft yellows or plush purples. I don’t think there are even words to describe my obsession with these Thomas Paul doily melamine plates ($40). So chic and classy (even though they are melamine)… Last but not least, I love this rug from CB2. The abstract pattern of CB2’s Zephyr Rug ($199-$499) is bold enough to be conversational, yet sophisticated enough to not be a distraction.
We just ordered that rug for our living room from CB2. It’s a steal and quite the looker.
