Whether you want to Move In with Malaika or not, you can't deny that her home is pristine. Genuinely, it looks like no one lives there. (She does, there's an entire series to prove.) Knowing us, you would know that we obviously went hunting on the internet to recreate her entire living room. We might not be able to afford it, but this us manifesting lavish, lavish lives for you, readers.

Her home has a very monochrome palette when it comes to the furniture and decor, but we also love that the whites and blacks are balanced out with turquoise walls and door frames. If you're looking for a similar vibe, then your guide to achieve it is here.

White vases with subtle face accents are everywhere, so it’s no surprise that a rendition of this trendy deco was in Malaika’s living room as well. We found the exact one, but here’s an affordable option we love just as much.

Nothing decks up an empty table like a vase with a statement flower or leaves. We love the classic white vase by Hollyhock, and we even found a similar dried leaf like the one in Mallika's home to fully ace the look.

As expected, Malaika's home is very on-trend. Chandigarh chairs and wooden dining sets are a rage all over the world right now. So, it makes full sense to us that her dining set follows suit. For full back support, and keeping space in mind, the Eleanor Set by Home Canvas is a good choice.

The set is made from Acacia Wood, which is a durable, and stain and scratch-proof material, which makes it perfect for dining purposes.

Translucent Vases

If you ask me, this translucent black vase exudes rich vibes. I can’t explain, but there’s something about stuff you can see through that makes it seem like your home is so sorted it doesn’t need concealing. (If you get it, you get it.)

I took inspo from Malla and found this translucent black vase that I love a little bit more because the shape is edgier and stands out. We'd style it on a bay window, where the light can give a subtle stained glass effect to it.

Loungeback Chairs

The checkered loungeback chairs next to the sofa look super comfortable, and give the set a very mismatched-but-going-together vibe. We love it, and we found a similar one on IKEA (which we love even more for the price).

A white sofa that people sit on!? That's definitely a risk! But, it might be risk worth taking if it looks as good as Malaika's sofa. If you're looking to add elegance to your living room, a white sofa is a no-brainer bet. It would tie the room together if your living room follows a monochrome or pastel palette. We'd keep it covered in Grandma-style plastic wraps, but you do you, girl!

I know, we’re following a very monochrome vibe here, but this table is the perfect if everything you’re going to put on top of it is going to lean towards neutral shades. I also love that it comes with legs instead of a chunky trunk, because that makes it perfect for those of us who have limited spaces to play around with.
