Blue & White, Done Totally Right
Certain things, they just don’t go out of style. Classic blue and white décor has stood the test of time, since Chinese porcelain used for decoration made its debut in the 14th century. (That’s 700 years, y’all). We’re giving tips on blue and white décor and how to add them into your home.
- Wallpaper
In the bedroom, powder room, living area—we’ve been spending lots of time swooning over blue and white wallpaper samples lately. Wallpaper makes such a statement and is a classy and elegant way to add color to your space. Sidenote: Our founder, Heloise, recently wallpapered her bathroom in classic blue and white, and we are low-key obsessed. Check out our Instagram for recent photos.

- Ginger Jars
If you’ve spent any time on our site, you may have noticed our love for ginger jars. On bookshelves, on the floor—can’t stop, won’t stop. Group these eye-catching beauties on the floor or table or use them to as accent pieces. I think our favorite way is as a floral vase. Try some blue or white hydrangeas. *Swoon*.

- Rugs
There’s nothing quite like a great blue and white rug. Find the perfect one, then keep the rest of the décor simple and classy. We love a blue and white rug paired with a gold coffee table. Can it get much more gorgeous?

- Lamps
We love the way a lamp can add a bold pop of color. Try bold blues, classy whites, or blue and white patterns to bring style to your bedside or side table.

To set the mood properly, here are some of our favorite ways to incorporate this soft, yet sophisticated color in your home.

Color Story: Winter Whites
It could be all the snow on the ground or the calm, cozy feeling that being surrounded by muted whites, light blues and neutral accents brings...whatever it is, "winter white" inspired spaces have had our hearts skipping a beat lately. Here's our mood board of cozy white spaces we'd love to sink into with a good book and wait for spring to arrive.
