in the pink...

My love of the color pink isn't subsiding...in fact this week I invested in a real showstopper...a South African juju ( aka/feather headdress) that was calling my name at a local design shop...it now hangs in front of a wall sized mirror in my dining room.

I have seen many juju's in white and other colors but never a white one with a PINK center..."Happy Birthday to me"...(a few months in advance!)

Pink is now invading other areas of my dining room in a big way too... the fun factor is just too hard to resist...

I found these wonderful pink glasses (that make me want to throw a party every time I look at them) and they add a wonderful "pop" to the corner cabinets...

I'm also "trying on"  pink zebra fabric on the window bench....

somehow PINK has migrated throughout my maison over the last several years...and I couldn't be happier...

My dear friend Dawn was kind enough to bring me back some fabric from her recent trip to Istanbul... here it is below on my sofa...

it is so PERFECT...I love the embroidered pattern...

she also found this little pillow which I am trying just for kicks on my bed...I am crazy for textiles and mixing them up...

....little fuchsia buds are also often found on trays within many of my spaces...

the older I get the more I enjoy living with the brightness of color...is that my eccentricity coming into play?

this pillow makes me smile each time I visit a fave boutique...one of these days it may have to come home with me...if I can just figure out where to put it...

a frequent Summer bouquet on my mantle...

my love of pink extends to my nail polish..Essie came out with a new color this year..Groove is In the Heart...it is a retro pink... the color is not represented perfectly on my toes...but it is my new "go to" color...check it out...it's pretty fab with tan toes!

my jewelry creations always seem to include pink as well...

one of my favorite sayings that pretty sums up my feelings on the subject....



Have a wonderful Wednesday! XO Emily
