Did you hear the news?! Pantone's Color of the Year for 2011 is honeysuckle pink! It's not as soft as it sounds either, it's a vibrant, fuschia hue. While I'm hanging my head a bit because I've been going all over blogland all year forecasting that it would be purple/plum/aubergine (yes, Sue), but the happy news is that I decorated my living room last fall with accents of, you guessed it, honeysuckle pink! Ahead of the curve, baby, that's what I like!

What a funny name. I thought honeysuckle was more yellow and white. Still, I love the pink. Our spare room is that colour and I love it.Fiona
ReplyDeleteyou are clever!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a gorgeous color. I think I like it for clothes more than the home though.
ReplyDeleteFlora
I can see accents of that color or a backdrop... too much might look like a coating of Pepto Bismol (hehe)
ReplyDeleteI have a fashion photo for you today... oh la la!
Bises,

that table is lovely!
ReplyDeleteWould love to see images of it in your home!
ReplyDeleteI bet your living room is super cool! I have some pink images saved for a post that I know you will love. xo
ReplyDeleteHI! Bummed as well, or at least I was until you went and made honeysuckle look so darn appealing! The last image is amazing!:)
ReplyDeleteSo stunning...I adore the bedroom colours. It looks so stylish and so cozy in the same time
ReplyDeleteKisses, my dear
Love the first and second room but that last one is a bit over the top for my taste :)
ReplyDeleteLove the colour!
ReplyDeleteLOVE everything about that last image... and would love to have all of it in my home ~~

It's a really lovely shade - I bet accents of it in home decor would look really rich and stylish.

I am definitely loving honeysuckle pink right now! That 1st image is also a fave of mine too-beautiful! XX
ReplyDeleteI think your ahead of the curve- 2012 is going to be purple/plum/aubergine!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah! You are wayyyyy ahead of the curve and more! :) Loving the first room a lot. P.S. Got your card yesterday. Thank You! It is right in the middle of my refrigerator :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteToo funny, good for you! I love the first image! xx
ReplyDeleteOh, you have such a good eye I wouldn't be surprised if you already predicted the color for 2012.
ReplyDeleteYup, I feel quite ahead of the curve as well on the whole pink thing but hoping it doesn't all of a sudden become the colour everyone decides to use- would hate to see it overused and loose it's edgy/romantic appeal. Still pleased though that the world seems to finally be embrassing pink in all its glory! Loved your post shots:) xo
ReplyDeleteWhat a great colour!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBig Hugs,Yvonne
I like the pop of pink-
ReplyDeleteDon't fret, Benjamin Moore's color of the year is Vintage Wine, an eggplant. You are good, very good. I have a client already using it in her formal dining room. IT IS SO HOT!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color!! I bet it is gorgeous in your home!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so ahead of the times!! love this colour for a pretty hit :)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness that pink table is AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteplease put me away for a week or two in picture number one...PLEASE??? *sigh*...I need a house with 12 rooms to be able to decoratie them all different......I like so many "things".......
ReplyDeleteXX

Way to be!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry I've been MIA here! It was a busy busy weekend with no computer use. Catching up now though so all is well :)
Question- did you migrate to your own domain name from blogger and still use blogger? how did that go?!
ooooh what a great color?!? and I love that blanket in the first shot, you always find the BEST bedroom pics.
ReplyDeletegush! love how vibrant it is. love it's name too!!!
ReplyDeleteOF course you decorated your living room with the color of the year. it is quite striking. love the lamp shades. you'll guess it next year!!! xo
ReplyDeletefabulous fabulous! this was my topic yesterday too. great minds think alike. had NO IDEA you used to live in dallas! how fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI have always predicted it would be plum, but that honeysuckle pink is looking gorgeous in these pics! Xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how excited I am by this! (I've been sneaking bits and pieces into my new clothing line) Love love love your images! Can't wait to see more!

Love that color! I add it to my robin's egg blue bedroom as an accent color, too.
ReplyDeleteit's a gorgeous colour, the second image is inspiring!

What a lovely explosion of color! I love that shade of pink, would look great it any room :) Wonderful post!
ReplyDelete- the runaway
Completely crushing over the second look. What a great color of the year!!
ReplyDeleteThis was such a surprise pick, I thought! But, it's definitely "my" color so I'm truly tickled pink!!!
ReplyDeletexoxo elizabeth
ps: I'm betting you purple girls have a real shot at 2012! :)
Not really a pink girl although it can work nicely as an accent color! There also seems to be some discussion about exactly what shade of pink this is - some bloggers seem to think it is more of an orangey, warmer pink. But in any event, I LOVE it in the last shot - really effective there!!
ReplyDeleteIt seems like a pretty color, I am imagining a cocktail dress in that shade would be eye-catching :)
ReplyDeleteYay! I do love this color!

nice post.
ReplyDeletePurple is nice. You weren't too far off. :)
ReplyDeleteNo surprise you're ahead of the curve, my friend. And you're so right, the name makes you think it would be something a bit softer. It's pretty though. Very pretty! xoxo
ReplyDelete..I fall in love in those wall paper ..so beautiful ..Sophisticated ..
ReplyDeletegosh, that table in the last photo is so wonderful! honeysuckle pink - it sounds so soft and pastel-like, but i do love how bright and pretty it is :) hope you're well ♥
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colour accent. So pretty! LOVE that wallpaper
