Hot Color Combos: Wintered Rose and Shitake

fabulously contemplated by Terrica

For this week’s hot colors, we’re taking another cue from the Pantone Fall 2008 Color Report. Wintered Rose and Shitake are a different play on the already tired pink and brown theme. Instead of drawing attention with bold statement colors, these muted tones are more sultry and more complex. Last week, we went for bold and contrast. This week, we’re a bit more subdued. These deep shades can resonate so much– but for me, it was the romance. I saw nothing but modern elegance and lushness when I saw this mauve and brown shade. The ivory added a touch of innocence at the same time.

I love everything fabulous-- stilettos, creme brulee, shocking colors, the shiniest of lipglosses, and a really good cage fight. If it's not pink, I probably don't own it and it's loud, I'm dancing to it. I love my family, my friends and my clients, because they all keep me grounded. And I've never met a martini I didn't like ;)
