My BFF Pink

Since getting married, I had to kiss all of my pink decor goodbye. The hubs wasn't down with all of my pink and green monogrammed madness. It was a sad breakup, but I have dealt with it by using a little extra turquoise and pear green (my other two faves) in our new apartment. You will soon see how much I love these colors! (Hint hint: my new blog design that is coming soon!) I still mourn the loss of my BFF pink, but I'm crossing my fingers for some little girls to someday decorate for!

While perusing one of my favorite blogs, House of Turquoise, I found something that stopped me dead in my tracks and left me totally and utterly breathless. The holy grail of all things pink and turquoise. My dreamgirl house! I am obsessed with all white rooms with pops of color and these rooms are just perfect. Can I move in now please? My sweet husband will just have to close his eyes!

 

Not only am I totally obsessed with this place, I also LOVE the story of how it came to be. From the words of Carrie Leber:

Whenever I hear that The Olympics will bring a watershed of opportunities to the cities that host them I always wonder what really goes on after the actual event is over.   In Vancouver, Millennium Water Development, who created the Olympic village for the athletes during the Winter 2010 Games, has renovated the building that had housed visiting athletes and is now selling the units as condos. As part of a clever cross marketing strategy, they hired 9 of Vancouver’s best Interior Design firms to design 9 different suites.  One those firms was The Cross Decor and Design who created the suite shown in these pictures.

 How cool is that?? If you, too, are in love, and have thousands and thousands of dollars to spare; you can head on over to the Millenium Project Store and buy almost everything you see in the pictures. Yeah, I wish. If I could get my hands on that tufted headboard, I'd be a happy girl for the rest of time. Christmas, anyone? ;)
