Color Combo: Navy Blue and Naturals

We associate this color combo with Ralph Lauren's All-American style, although it can just as easily be interpreted as the starting point for a rustic Scandinavian look. It brings together two classics: natural wood tones and crisp navy blue. By varying the shade of the neutral and the pattern of blue, it has a lot of flexibility...

I love this color combination

I love the design of those Oscar de la Renta rugs - but I'm looking for something in Red and White for my Red and Blue bedroom, similar to what Jonathan Adler has (but I don't want to pay $25/square foot for one of his custom rugs)

IKEA had one a few years back - white squares on a red background, but of course it's discontinued.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Always loved the look of navy velvet drapery panels over matchstick shades or bamboo blinds.
