Image via RemodelistaI've mentioned my love of pink before (albeit reluctantly), but my post title (lifted from Remodelista) and this adorable interview on Joanna's blog resurfaced my pink-love.
Those that know me are a little surprised by this fondness of mine for the fair hue, as it's somewhat out of sync with my wardrobe, house, etc...(Let's just say I've never met a black shirt that I couldn't work into my wardrobe or a rock that I didn't consider a perfectly acceptable decorative accessory.)
So yes, I'm mostly a neutral gal -- for me, cream is a valid color. But while overall our house has got kind of an earthy, Northern California thing going on, I decided to step out of my comfort zone by not only painting a few accent walls with something other than neutrals but also saturating Audrey's bedroom with full-on powder pink.
And here's the thing...It's without a doubt my favorite room in the house.
I do firmly believe you can "toughen" up pink to great success. Paired with grey, yellow or chocolate brown, it gives off a whole different vibe.
