Today we revel in ’80s merchandise featuring our colors of choice. An instant way to add bold style and channel our favorite decade, the pairing of red and black is both nostalgic and modern.

Aw c’mon Kate- you forgot the best representative of this colour scheme! One that children still recognise now, despite there being no reruns of the show on TV (here at least)- the A TEAM VAN!!!
Ace article, most of my recent decorating/Etsy making has been using Memphis colours, I may well use black and red to shake things up next month.
You’re so right about the van! Totally my mistake! ; – ) Do you have an Etsy shop? Feel free to share the link…
