dwellings and décor

I think its about time I pulled out my favorite black and orange interiors!

I think these are great examples of orange and black interiors that can work all year round. They have a very elegant yet fun feel to them. I have to say that I tend to stay away from this color scheme for fear that it will look too Halloweeney but I think these inspirational images gives me some great ideas and helps me to work around the holiday stereotype. For instance I could use a charcoal black and a more coral red orange rather than a pure orange or black. I also like the use of gold like in the mirror frames and in accent furniture pieces.

I think this look is definitely wearing on me. How about you?
