My favorite white colors are in the top five! If you’ve seen this Instagram post of my favorite white paint colors, then you know my top three are Swiss Coffee, Chantilly Lace and Simply White. The rest of the colors in this list are versions of gray, more whites, shades of beige and a muted green!

My top tip for clients is to always get paint samples to try out before committing to a paint color for a space. Lighting and natural light in a space can change how a color looks so much so it’s always best to get samples and see how the colors look in your own home.
