Grey

After yesterday's soaring temperatures, today has been
blissfully cool, overcast and refreshingly grey.

Grey is such a fabulous colour - sophisticated in a
less dramatic way than black, soothing like creams and
natural colours, fresh like white but with a warmth to it,
and most of all, very effective as a base for any given room.

Here are some grey eye candy for you my dears..

Pink


This statement was made by the legendary Diana Vreeland.





Not a typically 'pink person' myself, I have of course given birth
to a daughter who is obsessed with pink and all things pink!
I do not dislike the colour at all, but I don't share the same
deep and honest passion that Isabella has for pink...




My little whirlwind immerses herself in a cloud of pink dreams,
numerous fluffy tutu skirts, stings of pink beads and her ultimate
wish this Christmas is that Santa brings her a pretty pair of pink
ballet shoes and some pink lipstick (she calls it 'make-it-up')..















Pink is a symbol of femininity, self-love, tenderness and acceptance.
It also said that certain shades of pink help neutralize disorder and
violence, and that some prisons therefore use pink to soothe inmates.

A touch of black

In the right dose & in the right place
black is simply fabulous!
