Friends, grab your paintbrushes and throw on a fabulous pair of overalls because it's time to strive forwards and embrace the bold adventurer inside of you! This cocktail is perfect for those of us who like to dance the night away, but is also good for the traditionalists amongst us who like a cheeky flirt with fun every now and then. Belong to the former group? Well, you'll have no problem embracing a vibrant green coat stand or going all out with the retro wallpaper. If, however, you're lifestyle is more high tea parties than all night parties, then keep things more formal with a flash of bold. To add a little flair to your scheme try adding a purple mount to one of your favourite prints or even a luxe throw over your best armchair. Either way, this cocktail will bring a bundle of happiness to your space.

ReplyDeleteI have to say, I'm actually not a big fan of these two colors, but you make me want to be. You're adorable.

I love the last two rooms! Especially the one with the white dresser! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLuvs!
I love this color combination!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I like each color on their own, but not together. It's like they're equally as strong and are competing with each other.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, the wallpaper is super cute
This combo is so fresh and vibrant, I love saturated colors like these!

ReplyDeleteYour color cocktails are such a good idea!
ReplyDeleteMr. great taste, I have 13 etchings from the 18th c. with "egos" just like the man in the frame above the white chest. You just inspired me to add a purple matting and voila --the look is both classy and edgy! What a great idea!
