Pink Velvet

47 Park Avenue

I love a green velvet sofa, but isn't this pink a delicious alternative?

A Chinoiserie Work Nook

Southern Living

This perfect little work space could be tucked in a living room, family room, bedroom, wherever. Note the blue and white garden stool giving extra surface space, the blanc de Chine statue made into a lamp, and the wonderful color palette of blue and white with browns and beiges.

Taupe

Alexa Hampton - Architectural Digest

The walls of the hallway are painted in a favorite paint color of mine - Benjamin Moore HC - 77 Alexandria Beige. Not only is this a great taupe, but I have lived in Alexandria, Virginia for about 30 years. Notice the pop of color the pair of blue and white ginger jars gives against this warm taupe.
