Black and White and Red All Over

As the old riddle goes...What is black and white and "read" all over? Answer: A newspaper.

A Good + Glam reader recently asked me for advice on how to "get out of the black and white rut" when re-styling their bedroom. I happen to favor monochromatic living spaces, but a black and white decor can be a tricky look to pull-off. I think incorporating color within a monochromatic space helps to soften the formal nature of a "newspaper" colored decor. Try an unexpected splash of color in your space, like the purple ceiling in the picture below.
