Pastel hints

I thought I'd start the day off with some soft, subtle pinks and pastels to calm my head before my crazy weekend begins. This morning I'm off to gift fair in Somerset West to stock up on Christmas presents, then back to town for a birthday lunch with my boyfriend (at The Grand, yay, can't wait!), then it's birthday drinks for him with friends. Saturday morning we'll be setting off at the crack of dawn for a friend's wedding out in the countryside where we'll be spending the night too and then on the way home on Sunday we'll be visiting my parent's for lunch because it's my Mom's birthday! I'm actually feeling exhausted as I write this, now you see the need for the calm hues! Wishing you all a fabulous weekend!

A hint of pink

12:16 AM colour, pink No comments

Morning friends, how are you all today? I'm glad yesterday's post spread a bit of positive energy. A colour that subtly does the same for me is pink. A hint of pink can do wonders. It adds a bit of warmth and softens up a look, adding just a touch of femininity. I'm a big fan of pink, I won't deny it! What do you think? Do you like a soft, subtle shade or a more modern, hot pink? Or no pink at all?!

Pink power

12:14 AM colour, fashion, pink No comments

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a good weekend? Are you ready for the week ahead and the arrival of June? I'm not sure I am, I have a bit of a stressful week ahead, so wish me luck!

On a brighter note, literally, what do you think about pink in fashion? I love this colour but tend to always wear it in smaller doses or accessorise with it. I love how all these girls wear it in such a bold way. And it seems there is a trend to combine pink with either camel or green. Such a fun look, perfect to cheer up a winter's day. What do think, are you brave enough to step out in a hot pink outfit?!

Pretty in pink

1:48 AM Florals, pink No comments

Yay, I'm super happy its Friday, it's been one of those long weeks and I'm excited to get going with the weekend! Since it's my birthday on Monday, I'm inviting friends over on Sunday for an afternoon of bubbly, cupcakes and snacks! But have I started organising yet? No! So I can see tomorrow is going to be a mad rush of tidying up and rearranging the house and of course baking up a storm! I'm looking forward to all of it anyway!

I've got some pretty pink and floral inspirations for you today... a romantic and rather bohemian living room, adorable little wrist tattoos, gorgeous free April desktop wallpaper from pretty light and the most incredible peony paper collage by Nathalie Boutté. It's so beautiful, wish I was that creative!

So what are your plans for the weekend my friends? Local readers, make sure you enter my B+D sunglasses giveaway and Sootcookie ceramic giveaway! Why not, it's free and someone has to win! Have a great weekend my friends!♡

My happy place

8:50 PM inspiration, pink No comments

Just a few random lovelies for you today, somehow they all make me smile and transport me to 'my happy place', a place full of dreams and inspiration. Perhaps it's the touch of pink here and there? I hope they do the same for you, happy Wednesday friends!
