White Looks Right
Elle Decor

whitelooksright-TOPPOC.jpgWe love the idea of all-white rooms, they are the epitome of clean, classic style. Yet now and then we ask ourselves if an all white room would be too bland? Rita Noroña Schrager’s Southampton home certainly shows that this is not the case. Her place showcases white beautifully with just the right amount of color splashes throughout.

 
 

Rita's daughter, Sophia, helped decorate her bedroom which is also predominantly white, "The former ballerina encouraged her children to select their own bedroom hues, though in the end they didn’t deviate much from their mother’s taste. Ava chose white with black accents, while Sophia opted for white with splashes of lime-green and aqua."

Sophia's room features a funky bed from Cyrus Company and some nightstands which are only $50 each. The curtains, which also serve as a sort of ersatz headboard are a limey green shade that fit right in with the style of the room.

Ikea has an almost identical style bed. The only difference I see is the color.

Redhead - please provide the link to the Ikea bed you're referring to. I have never seen it and am very interested in it.

I thought that was the Ikea bed, just wrapped in white fabric. Seems like a good DIY. The Ikea bed would actually look good in this room in green too.
