It’s no secret that black and white will always be a tried and true classic combination. But pairing it with gold, the duo is ultra chic and always in style. Mixing bold black and white patterns, like stripes, and strong geometrics, this classic gets a modern update and feels edgy yet softened with hits of blush pink.

Inspired by classic design house Chanel and modern playful nods from Kate Spade, the vignette below is the perfect balance of old and new. A stack of elegant books feels young and fresh with the typographic framed photo and a few perky cabbage roses.

Get in on the chic look with this great piece from Lindsay Letters. Put on a stark white wall for contrast, or lean on an entry table with a bouquet of fresh flowers and white porcelain bowl for keys!

This colour combo is always in style, so don’t be afraid to invest in long term items like this room and it’s fantastic area rug. Using a lucite table, white walls, and soft cream couch help the living room feel light and airy against the stark black accents. Pro tip: line a standard table tray with a fun wallpaper, fabric, or scrapbook paper for a hit of personality!
