Fashion and Interiors: Blush

The shade of a little dancer’s first tutu.

The color of the dogwood blossoms in my childhood home.

That color your cheeks start to turn when you first embrace a new love.

I love the delicate, romantic color of a blush pink.

Something about this color brings me both to dusk in the summer as well as a cool winter’s day.

Here are the pictures that inspired my pink passion:

    I don’t think anything else could make me feel like a fairy princess more than having a blush bedroom…. it’s what the little girl in all of us adore!

      Thank you for your sweet comment dear! I would LOVE a blush bedroom as well – I’d just have to convince my husband that it would still look good!

    Thats beautiful pink couch needs to find its way into my lounge, even if it doesn’t currently match because I just love it! One of my fav colours, so soft and pretty.

  • Dale Janee January 8, 2014 at 10:09

    Awwww, I love this and while I know I’ll never get a blush bedroom now that I’m married – maybe a blush office one day. lol.
    That dress on Mary-Kate is so pretty and I love the embellishments. Great post and very inspiring already for Spring

      Dale, I just turned and asked my husband if he would be ok with a pink headboard and he said “Yeah, that’s fine.” There is one of the reasons I married him! Actually I would just love a pink, tufted headboard. We’ll see if that happens some day! Mary Kate’s dress really is divine – the embellishments are stunning!

    I’m so in love with this colour too – so soft, delicate and romantic xo

    Swoon, that top room looks stunning – the wall colour is simply beautiful. I love how fresh it feels yet cozy and snug. Love! Happy New Year, darling. xoxo

    One of my favorite shades – so soft and pretty! I’d love a blush couch but I don’t think my husband would like it as much 🙂

    how is it that all little girls automatically love pink?
    some eventually grow out of it, or rebel against it, but really, it’s a pretty fabulous shade.

    I love how cute everything is! I especially adore the pink! <3

    So I have been tearing blush interior for awhile now— Once my daughter graduates out of the nursery phase I would LOVE to do her room in blush and grey– I think it is sophisticated, but still youthful. Loving the colors of the walls in the first photo!

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living January 15, 2014 at 07:40

      Alexis, I LOVE blush and gray in home decor! Haha, perhaps your daughter and I would have matching rooms then!
