Happy LOVE Day!!!
One of my favorite color combinations is pink and red. It is often reserved for Valentine's Day because it reflects the colors of love so well. Sometimes we get caught up in "what traditionally is" that great opportunities are missed. Pink and red are clean, crisp, bold colors that I would love to see used in decor year round.
By adjusting the shade or tone of a color you can change the entire look of a color combination. When you think of red, white and blue does your mind automatically go to the Fourth of July? With just a small adjustment of the blue you use you could have a completely different look, like this:
(inspiration board from Style Me Pretty?)And of course, red and green go well together and not just for Christmas. By using a lime green and adding some other citrus colors you can get a bold combo for any time of the year.
Never be afraid of playing around with colors and creating new and unique combinations. A great way to do this is to visit a paint store and look through the paint chips, holding them up against each other and mixing and matching.
