would it pair well with the simply shabby chic headboard?

i.m wondering if anyone has actually used the headboard, or any shabby chic furniture, because it says sour cream but it looks white. the ikea furniture is pure white && i want to make sure the whites will match
so basically, is the shabby chic furniture set white or an off-white color, && will it match with pure white furniture?
sorry about the long link… :/

No, it’s kind of a creamy slightly yellowish white. You might have to paint the dresser to match it. You don’t have to match all the furniture anyway — why not get the Hemnes in a different color? I don;t think the two whites will go together. IKEA white tends to be blindingly white.
I think the styles look nice together.
I don’t think your whites will match perfectly but I think that would add to the Shabby in the shabby chic of your room.
I say go for it!
I am more partial to my own creations using new or used doors. Buying from IKEA for the Shabby Chic look just doesn’t feel right.
