Color Scheme: Black & Yellow

Ever since discovering the incredible work of Kelly Wearstler and her phenomenal design for the Viceroy Hotel in Palm Springs, I've been hooked on the bold color scheme of black and yellow. This scheme looks great when accented with crisp white or soft shades of grey, which can either make the the black and yellow pop or tone them down, depending on how they're used.

  5. I adore black and yellow together, so classy and sophisticated, yet not stuffy or overdone. I wish my husband did as well! Beautiful pics!

  6. I have long been a fan of the yellow and black color combination. That yellow bath tub just seals the deal-so fun and gorgeous at the same time. Love all these photos!

  9. That is a lovely color scheme and not two colors that I'd normally put together. However, the black and yellow has a very classic feel to it.

  10. This has been my obsession this entire month. The Viceroy definitely had a lot to do with it. It's one of those places I just want to go just to stay in the hotel.
