There’s something so chic about black and white, isn’t there? This year I’ve noticed a trend moving toward more neutral colors for baby gear and nurseries, and I love it. I have been in love with black and white for years. Here’s my kids’ toy area for proof:
Why do I love black and white so much?
1. It’s easy to accent. I can add a sprinkle of pink or teal or yellow and completely change the space without breaking the bank.
2. It’s easy on the eyes. When I see a brightly colored baby carrier or a toy room with every color in the rainbow I tend to get a headache. Seriously! Too many colors in too small a space just doesn’t work for me, and I feel that a clean black and white space makes it easier for me to think and enjoy the room.
3. It’s easy to match. While there are a million shades of black and white, it is generally easy to find pieces to work together.
Here are some stunning black and white pieces to add to your collection:
LÍLLÉbaby Embossed Luxe Baby Carrier in Noir (LÍLLÉbaby, $170)

The best part of all? Black and white tends to be more gender neutral, so you can use the same gear and nursery from child to child.
