Pink & Green

Pink & Green

Yesterday's post about Dorothy Draper's Greenbrier got me thinking about how much I love green and pink. It's such a cheerful color combo, so I thought I'd share some favorite photos that I found online. Have a great weekend!

I drive a pepper white and black Mini Cooper, but find myself loving these pink Minis!

but of course, pink & green cupcakes & candy...

This Tony Duquette-style foyer has painted walls, a fun gilt tree console and twig mirror. What an interesting combo.

Such a soothing color palette for a room...

1959 laminate kitchen...

The Beverly Hills Hotel is my absolute favorite. They use the green and pink color combination and it's classic and fabulous...

How about a root beer float at the legendary Fountain Room in the Beverly Hills Hotel? I love sitting at the counter and watching the old Hollywood regulars. Great to people watch. Note the signature banana leaf wallpaper.

I can't leave the Beverly Hills Hotel without pillaging the gift shop for green & pink goodies. They carry everything from pink dog bowls & beds, to little mint tins & candles.

Love this photo. Do you think they're freinds?

Gaia: yes, the first photo is real. I believe it's in Australia. The photo credit is at the bottom of the post. I looked at your blog. Amazing that you also posted about pink Minis and pink & green!

Sande: Start wrapping now and share photos please! I'd love to post them! And yes, I adore my Mini. It's a great little car in SF where there are no parking spaces!
