Coral And Orange. I'm A Bit Annoyed.

Huh?  Yes, I'm annoyed with all the attention that coral and orange are getting.   Here's the thing.
 
Orange, followed closely by coral, are my favorite colors to wear (yes, I know you know that). This has been the case for say, oh, two decades, maybe?  Orange, especially, has always been hard to find in great things to wear.  At the mall today, it was EVERYWHERE! Where I used to be original, now, I'm buying a trend!  By next year, when I am still wearing my signature, I will look like I was late to the trend party.  Don't you hate when that happens?  Surely, something like this has happened to you?

Here is the dress I will be wearing as I write this post.

Switching gears to design, I really love seeing my faves used in beautiful interiors.  It's a fresh twist when used in a traditional aesthetic, and I'm loving these images I borrowed from Pinterest.

I love all of these images (believe it or not, this is the first time I've used Pinterest. Patience with me as they aren't perfect and I'm really quite frustrated.  Oh, technology, you are not a joy.)

Anyway, have you ever really loved something forever and then looked like you were late to a trend when you still have it going on?  Really, it won't stop me.  Just don't like sharing my one true (color) love.  :)

Have a great week and talk to you soon,
Carol
