Friday Eye Candy: Navy + Pink = Crush

May 20, 2011 by Courtney 25 Comments

Lately, we have been outside almost every day. The temps are warming up and the flowers are blooming. I can’t get enough of it. On a side patio that we have, the bougainvillea is blooming and looks so striking next to the navy blue trellis pillow. It dawned on me that I have a huge crush on navy and pink. Maybe it’s the preppy side of me coming out, but it is just so beautiful together. So today’s eye candy is an homage to the preppy combo of navy blue and pink. Enjoy. IMG_1751 via

    Such a great colour combo. Always makes me think of Anna Spiro. Your own image with the cushion and beautiful bougainvillea is beautiful Courtney.
    Hope you have a great weekend. We're the opposite, and the temperatures are dropping, and the cooler weather is here.

    Love the color combination! Our oldest's room at home is navy and white, and she wants to add pink as the accent color. The bougainvillea is gorgeous!! Going over to see your guest post.

    Those colors together are gorgeous! I've actually been pondering painting my bathroom navy blue and using coral accents!
    Also, I featured your dining room on my blog. I love your striped curtains! Here it is:

    I like to use these colors with my daughter. My husband is completely against pink, therefore, if I throw in some navy – he can't complain!

    Love! http://www.myabcsoup.blogspot.com
