Sam Loves || Pastels

April 16, 2013




So excited to have the third edition of  the "We love " series.  Here was the last post in the series in case you missed it.  To refresh your memory Sam from The Peak of Tres Chic and I will be gathering inspiration under a certain theme a couple of times a month and sharing it with you. Sam will guest post here in my blog and I will post at Sam's.  I guess you could say we are swapping for the day.  This time around its all about pastels!!


Hello loves!  Sam here for another "We Love" collaboration post with Albertina.  Today we are focusing on pastels.  Just as they were all the rage last spring, it looks like they are back again this season!  

I love to mix a soft pastel with a bolder color, like bright yellow, as Betsey Johnson did in her dining room.  She used the iconic Warren Platner for Knoll lounge chairs and a sputnik chandelier for a mod look.

I am loving this monochromatic outfit, too!  I would never think to pair a mint tank with mint skinnies, but it looks so chic paired with black strappy heels and a structured bag.  Both the outfit and the room are accented with gold pieces- my favorite addition!  

What do you think?  Be sure and see Albertina's pastel picks today on The Peak of Tres Chic.

    Love it! I would have never thought mint on mint either, but it's fab! I'll be rocking this look soon. Gold is absolutely the perfect compliment! Love this series.

    Albertina me gusta mucho la mezcla de colores de rosado con dorado, colores que nunca habría creído que quedarán tan bien
