You've just started building your wedding registery and have already hit a roadblock—what's the vibe you're going for, and what colors do you want? It's hard to settle on a set of shades, especially when it comes to housewares you're planning on cherishing for years to come. Change your mind and you're stuck with what you've got—or, obliged to make returns or exchanges. Don't rely on the gift receipts when registering for your home. If you're nervous about the commitment, consider picking something evergreen. Build your home with neutral basics and rest assured that it'll end up looking chic. Plus, there's bound to be a guest or two who goes rogue—why not opt for a go-with-everything stock that can welcome an errant gift?  

Keep your rooms effortlessly cool with an assortment of home goods in black. Sleek and modern or basic and sensible, it's pairing possibilities are endless. Ahead, our favorite registry finds for the smart and stylish color.
