: bliss : Tiffany blue

elegantcakery.com

Tiffany blue has been one of my favorite colors for years, and now it seems to be a favorite color for brides, too.

With its romantic association with the famously glamorous jewelry brand, not to mention the delightful Audrey Hepburn film "Breakfast at Tiffany's", this particular shade of aqua conjures something special.

Such a lovely cool hue...Just perfect for a wedding.

(Or for a room, a bed, or a pair of shoes!)

pink loves orange

Normally, I'm not one to pair two intense colors, like this. I'm usually into more subtle colors. But, a few weeks ago, I found an old photo of myself, as a teenager, wearing this fun A-line dress, which I had designed and made. I was into 1960s fashion, at the time, and I felt that pink and orange was the most fabulous color combination ever. Pink and orange together certainly looks zingy and cute, and it seems quite perfect for autumn.
