Kitchen trends: so long silver, hello white!

White was all the rage at the Ideal Home Show and top bloggers all seem to agree that it'll be the new shade in our kitchens from now on. But do we agree?

At this year's Ideal Home Show a big new kitchen trend emerged: white. A couple of years ago, I got myself a silver American-style fridge and the need for that fridge was nothing less than desperate. It had to be a double door fridge and it had to be silver. I can't imagine lusting after a white fridge in the same way but according to a host of homes bloggers who were interviewed at the Smeg stand, white is the new kitchen trend that we're all heading for as if it were a black hole!

I don't mind being a fashion victim over household appliances - I like the thrill of the all-consuming fervour, followed by the satisfaction of the purchase and the smug pleasure of looking at your purchase for years to come. I suppose I'm not quite ready for the white fervour, but I'm prepared to believe it will come as the experts below claim...
