Tropical and Pink love

*Reminder*

Pink is definitely a favorite color of mine.
Is it because I am an unabashed girly girl?  Perhaps.
Is it because it matches my "can't get tan if I tried" complexion? Sure.

But I think it's also because the color itself puts me into a happier state of mind and I associate it with spring and summer (oh pink peonies in June!) Now that I'm living in a perpetually summer climate country, I'm happy that I'll be able to have pink around a lot more.  I have a feeling this won't be my last pink related post!

If I walked into a room with these lovely images of wisteria on the walls, I'd immediately fall into a lighter, tropical, state of mind.
Wisteria wall decals, $45 here

This dress is such a seamless day to evening dress (well though the left shoulder would be a little poofy if you have a cardigan over it).  Either way, love the versatility of this piece!



Sandals with just a hint of pink at the heel?  Brilliant!

Found here for $59.83

These pink crystal hoops should be hanging from my ears!  A colorful twist on a classic!

Pink aviators are the perfect topping to this outfit and these are definitely a steal!  Sigh, makes me reminisce about a favorite pair of pink Ferragamo sunglasses that are lost somewhere in Asia ( btw Loehmann's really rocks for sunglasses sometimes).
$12 at Kohls here
What's your favorite pink thing?

    Those sunglasses are $12 at Kohls?? I've been looking at RayBans for the longest time but I might skip those and just go with the Kohls glasses... I love 'em!!

    Now I'm off to enter to win the stockpot...

    Love Loehmann's for sunglasses - I am going back and forth on whether to buy a pair of Derek Lams I found there for $99! I love bold pink - pale pink washes me out too much, though it's really pretty on that wall!

    Kohl's ROCKS for sunglasses! I picked up an awesome pair from there for our trip last month. I love the ones you posted though.

    I have been on and off again about pink for my entire life. Currently we are on again.

    I love pink too but I can't wear lighter shades of pink or ones that are too bubblegummy. I have to go with the brighter, more fuschia colors, expecially in the summer. Right now my fave pink thing is my neon pink nails :)

    Like those pink aviators rather a lot. Hmmn favourite pink things. Anything really and any shade of pink from lovely light pastel shades to hardcore hot ones. It's all about the pink really.

    Okay, you definitely need those sunglasses to see everything with rose-colored glasses! Amazing! I think everything is more cheerful in the pink!

    I like that outfit, reminds me of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, the ultimate girly girl in pink!

    Pink flowers are my favorites, especially carnations and roses.
