Guest Picks: 20 Beautiful White Accents

October 26, 2018

It’s no secret that I love decorating with white. I may be mesmerized by colour from time to time, but I always return to white — it’s calming, it clears the head and it makes artwork seem fantastic. The important issue is to select pieces with sculptural shapes and tactile textures that bring interest to the scheme. Listed below are 20 finds in white that do just that, from severe deals to the investment bits you will want to stay forever. Enjoy! — Laura from Lolalina
