Pink & Blue
My current favorite color combination comes as a huge surprise to me: pink & blue. I can’t get enough of it!
And I’m liking almost any variation of pink or blue.
But hot fuscha and a deep inky blue is probably the one I love most. I nearly died when I saw this room from the latest Elle Decor:
Thanks to Monika for scanning this. I’m in love with this whole house BTW. If you haven’t seen it yet, you must! Seriously swoon-worthy!

i'm so with you on this one. i love this combo! and i'm shocked that i do. i just repainted my foyer bureau deep, dark blue with a hint of turquoise and i'm dressing it with glass pink knobs from anthro. nobody's more surprised than me. pam

love it… right there with you… i have a ton of vintage fabrics coming in blues and pinks… so funny …. xx
Yes, me too! And I find myself surprised as well at this latest development. That last room knocked me over when I saw it in this month's issue, seriously off the charts. And talk about covetable lighting. That pair of sconces is almost too good to be true.
Have you seen the cover of this month's House Beautiful? Pink and blue in the softest, barely there shade. The entire house is amazing. Check out Jane's post on ill seen, ill said for some great images. You will love it!

All I will dream about now is that gorgeous desk in the first image! And pale pink and blue are the must-have colors in our house now – especially with a certain little crumb who insists on it!

Ally I love the combination. It's fresh and it's not over-used. Breathes a bit of spring in to a space. Love it! Hoping you are settling into your new, lovely home?!

It's completely beautiful. Reminds me of one of my favorite rooms that I think were inspired by a jewel toned prada collection… And now I can't find it… Grrr…

pam: That sounds lovely! You'll have to post pics.
nkp: I know! Those lights!!!
Deb: Thanks! It's getting there albeit very slowly.
Dagny: Ah yes, that Domino room is an oldie but a goodie.
A Perfect Gray: Right? I don't know what is going on with me!
me too ally. i about fell out when i saw that blue ottoman and that pink couch.
i have long been a fan of this color combo. all shades. i am into the palest blush pink paired with deep navy or sapphire blue.

So romantic! Love the light pink, kind of oldies and light blue
Good combination!
I absolutely love the touches of cornflower blue, especially that chair.
Hmm! Kind of a surprising color palette to love but I'm open to it! I think when you say you like pink and blue it strikes me as not my favorite combo but the images you picked with the two shades are to die for, so guess I'm on board!

The color combination is nice and all… but that side table, that bed, that mirror! Those are to die for.

I have been in a pink mood lately too, which surprises me and I am loving it here with the blue.
I'm really surprised at how much I've been drawn to pink in home interiors recently. I would have laughed at that suggestion just last year, but suddenly it seems very chic and modern.
I posted it about it recently — and even included a pink and blue room!

I love the combo too. These are the colors(plus brown) I used in my family room. I was hesitant at first but it works and I love it, it makes me happy.

Pink and blue is a beautiful combination. I hope that you are not going to paint over all of the grey that you have already painted in your new home, Ally !!!! XXXX

hot fuchsia and deep inky blue sounds right up my alley. can't wait to check out the new elle decor whenever it makes its pretty way to europe!

Nice springy colors.

Lesley: I've been doing quite a lot of pink posts myself over the last year.
Jacqueline: No way! I love my gray. And this combo actually goes well with it.
That large gilded mirror over the tub is just AMAZING. I want, I love….off to craigslist to find….shoot, I NEED!
Now that I have boy/girl twins, it seems that my house is nothing but pink and blue! but it's certainly not quite as classy and chic as the photos you found. my house? a little more like you walked into babies 'r us. oh boy.
