Kitchen Styling

So in my new apartment I have a good size kitchen. It's new and modern. I posted a pic here.

Naturally being a rental it's not my choice of kitchen but I'm very happy with it and

 determined to put my own stamp on it. 

So I've been flicking through images trying to get some inspiration of how to 

style the kitchen with the right accessories.

So I start with this one. 

I don't have open shelves in my kitchen but I do so love them. 

I love the overall feel of this kitchen and the use of pale colour's.

In this kitchen, if you take away all the accessories, you are left with a very plain white kitchen. 

The choice of accessories have completely defined the feel of it. 

Although it's a little bit too girly for me I like the softness of it.

Something I've never really given much thought about is art in the kitchen.

I have 2 hooks in the kitchen either side of the stove and don't know what to put there.

 In the two kitchens above, I like the choice of art, a little retro feeling and adding some colour.

Maybe a mirror ??

 

 

Or maybe something colourful like these two?

So what do you think? I'd love to hear any opinions you have.
