We’ve all seen the chocolate brown and pink (or blue) combination – but rarely do you see the hue paired with darker tones of purple like raspberry and plum. These colors have a real warmth and richness to them and exude the feeling of luxurious romance. I hope you enjoy this color palette as much [...]

Perfect Petals: Amy Osaba
Friday, October 29, 2010

Espresso, to Go!
