Pink is one of my favorite colors and I thought I'd include a few selections from my files. Some of them I have had for quite a while, and so am not sure of their source, but wherever possible, I have labeled them. Hope you all have a nice, relaxing weekend!

lovely tribute to pink.
As my sons love to say, "It's a girls color" - I always tease them and tell them I will get it for them in "pink!"

Thanks, Patricia. I was just reading yesterday, that until the last century, pink used to be considered a man's color because it was derived from red and stronger than blue, which was considered a more delicate, womanly color. Isn't that funny? It's all cultural conditioning!
YAY I LOVE pink fridays!! I love pink everyday :)
Outstanding pics Anne, especially the pink bug in front of the pink building! - Gorgeous :)
Anna :)
I do too, Anna! Thanks, glad you liked the pics - I always enjoy the ones on your blog, too! Have a super weekend!
Love this - especially the darling picture of your grandmother - you mention her barely seen gloves but not that hat!! too cute!
Joni
Thank you, Joni. Yes, I should've mentioned the hat - pretty bold, don't you agree? It almost looks like it's made of Lily of the Valley....I will have to ask grandma about that.
Anne
I am a pink lover, too! It is such an ageless color and when you wear it you can only feel good!

Thank you, Melissa! You're so sweet and I am sure my grandma would love too hear that. Hope you have a great weekend!

That's so sweet of you, Courtney - thank you! I am sure that would make her day to know you said that.
I love this post! Fantastic image of your grandmother...I love old photographs...the muted sheen is gorgeous...Pink Espresso is stellar!
Cheers.
Thanks so much, Paul! Yeah, I have wanted to pull that picture out for a long time....the hat is just too amazing not to post. LOL. A bold choice for my parent's wedding.
Love your pink collection. My favorite is still your first, the "Pink Espresso" painting. I would become an espresso addict with that in my kitchen.
Thanks so much Perfect Bound - a real compliment coming from you. I think you have stellar taste and love your blog!
What a great post! Love the collection of rooms and furniture you have here- especially all of the inspiring color! Your grandmother looks so cute in her darling dress. I love it.
