Bright brighter

A fresh new week has started to unfold. I hope that your weekend was filled with sun, fun and relaxation moments. I did enjoy mine, avoiding the computer and taking advantage of the beautiful weather and leisury activities to recharge my batteries. This morning’s sunshine is a fantastic energy booster for a working Monday and the perfect impulse for a cheerful outfit.  A bright pink dress? Not likely. A splash of the colour, be it to arm myself with a bag in cerise hue, put on some rose pink lipstick or wrap myself in a magenta scarf? Most definitely. I wish you a wonderful week!

A few scoops of style, fashion and design: a beautiful bed linen collection inspired by Romanian embroidery/love this look / Uma Thurman shines on the red carpet at Cannes in her gorgeous Versace white dress / an interview with Yves Saint Laurent’s other half / a new great find in the land of interiors, elements and artefacts to inspire: The Paper Mulberry / I know the weekend has just passed, but isn’t this a lovely picnic idea?/ elegance and colour in this Barcelona home / editorial: nordic beauty  / one of the books I was surprised with last week, waiting its turn to be savoured: Cary Grant: A Celebration of Style / looking forward to seeing Midnight in Paris

    I wish I was brave enough to wear bright pink, but it doesn’t suit me, I think. So I go with the soft hues instead and use pink lipstick. 🙂 Glad to hear you enjoyed your weekend, darling. I tried to stay away from pc, too, but didn’t so so well. I guess I am a little bit addicted.
    Wishing you a wonderful week and happy sunshine filled Monday!

    that scarf is fabulous! I think I’d need a lighter colour, though.
    Frida Aasen is the next big thing, that’s for sure; she’s a natural beauty. And I can’t wait to see that film.

    Have a wonderful day Ada 😉

    I love these flashes of pink! Such a great way to add color to an outfit. That last dress definitely steals the show though. Too beautiful. Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

    Avoiding the computer – at times – and arming yourself with pink. Now that is some sweetly good dear advice. I’ve meditated today on these simple chic lines \relax and be happy\.

    Really. Effortless chic shall follow. I believe.

    What a beautiful way to start the week, Ada! Nothing brightens the day more than a bright pink. And I want/need that Balenciaga bag 🙂 xoxo

    Although I haven’t read you post in the morning, I brightened up my day by wearing some “hot peach” pumps from Musette. All of the sudden, my “corporate day” gained more fun:)

    Love this acid touch! This summer, we should wear bold colors! Pink, hot orange, apple-green…

    Loving the bright pops of pink! I don’t really like to wear pink, but if it’s worn in moderation, then I can definitely deal! My favorite is that purse..positively chic!
