Doors and their handles

Always wanted to have fairly cottagey/farmhouse doors - sturdy oak with latch black handles. I've managed to snap these up at 65% off locally and am now wondering whether the black iron latches would look ok with them? I'll attach a pic.

And can you have different door handles in the same house? For bathroom doors for instance? For safety, I'd like to be able to open them from the outside if need be.

if your going for the farmhouse vibe i think black iron latches would look good against light oak and we have the same ones from the outside all through but a proper bathroom latch which locks on the bathroom door

Do you think it would look silly to have 2 different types of handles throughout the house?

It would look odd if there were two adjacent doors with different handles. but if they aren't in the same eyeful, chances are no one will even notice.

Dont suppose you could show pics? I'm dithering. I don't want big hinges on show to match - just the thumb latch. Unsure where we'll start missing door handles or whether we'll just adjust. Also unsure about bathroom doors - should I stick with handles?!
