Update the bedroom with a few coats of fresh pink and black paint. Splash any shade of pink paints on the walls, to give the room a feminine touch. If the room is filled with wood furniture, consider painting it black, so that it contrasts nicely with the pink walls. Repainting is an inexpensive way to make dramatic decor changes in any room.

Choose to decorate the bedroom in an Asian theme, which can be easily accentuated by pink and black. Paint the walls a delicate purplish-pink, and hang Asian-inspired decor, such as fans and picture frames. Replace old furniture with black wicker; you can also choose black furniture pieces with a sleek, modern design. Place vases of fresh or fake orchids throughout the room, to add an extra "pop" of pink to the room.

Decorate the bedroom in a vintage French theme. Add a bit of glamor by choosing bedding in a pink toile pattern. Add a black vanity as a feminine touch, and cover the seat cushion with pink toile fabric to match back to the bedding.

Choose a polka dot theme, using pink, black and white decor. Polka dots never go out of style, and can add a retro vibe to any bedroom. Paint the walls with a light pink color, and using a plastic or wooden circle template, paint circles in a slightly darker shade of pink over the walls. Or paint the walls a neutral white, and add white and black polka dot bedding and pink decor items, such as picture frames, mirrors and furniture.
