The Color You Need Now ... Blue and White

Mention blue and white, and you immediately conjure images of china or porcelain. Flip through the pages of any home-decorating magazine, and you'll undoubtedly come upon a piece of blue-and-white china in every type of interior. In broader strokes, however, such as walls, floors, and furniture, the classic combination takes on a fashionable edge. We love variations on cobalt, indigo, and cornflower to create a contrast with white that looks contemporary but also evokes the past. Sometimes nautical, often exotic, and always crisp, the blue-and-white look never goes out of style.
