I painted my office BM Smoke, replaced the oak trim with white, and changed all the doors to white as well. I have a cute chandelier I got from Ikea and a small white ikea desk that I plan to flank with white shelving with black storage boxes. Drapes are white and I have a dark brown leather click couch as well. I'm trying to add pops of coral/hot pink here and there and having a hard time finding decor. This pillow I picked up from "Tuesday Morning" and is my inspiration http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs215.snc1/8223_142312003127_503838127_2590874_8286603_n.jpg (broken link) Would love to hear any tips and links to pictures are very helpful! The only bright pink decor I can find is floral.

I just attended a seminar at our library about this type of thing! look for desk accessories that go with you colors(pink) maybe some type of basket for mail, a unique vase and floral arrangement for a table or shelf. any other desk accessories etc. you might even look for a small area rug for in front of the couch and a real pretty, comfy throw draped over your couch. also, look for some type of framed print for the wall. the designer that gave the seminar suggested using a color pallette of 3 or 4 colors throughout your house so that items become somewhat inter-changeable! also, look for a nice candle with a great fragrance.
Great tips. I just bought black frames with white mating and added pictures we took from when we were in Hawaii. I also found a bright pink clock thats only 4x4 or so, but so cute! Would a bright pink rug be too much?
find a rug that has pink in it, not just solid pink!
