Inspired Color: Pinks and Wild Florals

I feature pink a lot on here, (like here) or sfgirlbybays post here). It's something that can be very soft and sweet, but I love it with a hint of a gothic feel, even masculine. I'm not a big 'hot pink' person, but there is a fine line with the intensity of the color and what it's paired with for a mature audience.

 Paired with these pink touches, there seems to be an element of some nature inspired flourish. Flowers, branches, zebra stripes or whatever, I'm seeing a recurring theme and I'm loving it.

Color Theory~ Loving Pink

we heart it

Now, I'm not a huge pink person, but when I get involved with a color, I love to see it for all

of the possibilities of it's uses, then fall in love with each one. And today, I'm smitten with pink.

The way it is found in nature, in skin tones, forced into rooms and sweets.

Bending it's gender in interior design and even it's shade of rosiness and tone.

Used in romance, design, fashion, cosmetics, interiors, everyday accents of home and even humor...

 funky trend

If you aren't into pink, try a simple pink flower arrangement, a pink brooch, a pink cupcake, or even... paint your nails pink. I haven't painted my nails for 3 1/2 years,
until Sunday... and what color did I choose? Pink! It made me feel refreshed.

Inspired Room: Bedroom at Tiffany's

Have you seen Enchantresses 3 bedroom reveal? The room is based off of a vinyl decal made in the Tiffany style logo (decal made by Vinyl Silhouettes), but altered to reflect the name and details of her little girl, Emmy. The white wall scones with black candles add that perfect touch.

The blue walls are a strong color, but perfect and balanced with the white and black painted furniture and the airy sheer white curtains to let in plenty of light. The black and white polka dot bedding is perfect in this space.

And don't you just love the little play corner, with the mirrors, vinyl wall sticker chandalier, chalk board and zebra print rug? The pink chairs and little white shutters add a nice amount of cheery color as well.

It's definitely charming, diva-lishious and super sweet all at the same time. What a lucky girl!
