Can you mix pine and oak?

My mum needs an additional piece of furniture in her dining room, the dining table and dresser are pine bought in the 70s from my dads pools win so she won't be upgrading them for sentimental reasons.

She needs a set of drawers or sideboard maybe, but pine styles are limited nowadays and she likes oak but can you mix and match?!
Reading online articles say yes but was wondering what you all thought?! Has anybody done it?

Mixed woods are far more acceptable nowadays. Is the pine very orangy though? If so I’d either bleach the wood or paint it

Yes it's a bit discoloured, I'll look into bleaching it, thank you!
