your thoughts: black and white

this weekend i attended a black and white ball where the girls/women were all beautifully dressed. i was surprised at how many dresses i was ooohing and aahhhing over. the boys/men of course looking perfect in their tuxes. but it got me thinking about black and white decor, and how in it is right now.








do you have black and white in your home? do you think its too severe, so you substitute grey? (aka ME) do you add pops of color to brighten it? what do you think of this “trend”?

  1. I love the kitchen – nothing beats carrera marble! And, I’ve been in love with Jenna Lyons closet forever! But beyond these two images, I’m not dying for black and white. In short, it is a little too harsh for me. Subtle color adds life to a room and makes for a more soothing space. Just my two cents :) !

  2. you know i’m obsessed with black and white decor… our couch, our dinner/coffee table, our big wall photography, my mirror to end all mirrors… jennys wardrobe…. :)
