Pretty in Pink

Nalani Bath RS_org_tile Screen shot 2011-03-07 at 2.07.40 PM

Email is often a chore. I'm swimming in spam and unwanted notes. Occasionally, however, I find something pretty in mixed in with the castaways. The above shot is from Orchid Ceramics. Although I'm swooning over the pink bathroom shown above (wow!), the note was intended to announce the launch of the artisan inspired Carissa collection. Tiny little tiles with big fashion punch. Love that photo above showcasing telltale Louboutin pumps. Nice touch. Take a peek and reward the hardworking PR pro who was kind enough to shine through with photos, a captivating (and super brief) introduction tied in to a chic product perfect for my blog. Kudos, sister. Kudos.

What the beautiful people are saying...

Stunning bathroom!! And the tiny tiles look very pretty too. Now taking a peek at the collection:)

Oops, the thing that really caught my eye was the chandelier. The tiles are nice but I just don't think of the walls as much.

Your blog is FAB. Thanks for stopping by :)

Amy, me too. Pink! Crystals! Glam! All so pretty at once. I do adore the neutral tiles of the first photo. Im a natural & neutral girl at heart when it comes to permanent features like floors. Adore that top look!

Completely off point, but I have those same flowers sitting on my kitchen table. Only mine are yellow, not pink. Which is surprising, really, considering I have an affinity for all things pink.

Nice post, Franki!

Im loving the bathroom, especially the gold side table.

Pink color always look pretty.You share such a nice article with us.It is looks so gorgeous.


Love that, Cathleen! I need to go buy myself some flowers asap. Mr. Venti will be gone for about a week and Im going to GIRL IT UP sister! Bring on the Bachelor reruns facials! :)

Tonia, I do too. Very delicate.

I always thought it would be wonderful to have a tub in the middle of the room ... and especially if it looked out some beautiful french doors into a (very) private garden scene ... even more pleasurable with a drippy chandelier overhead! Love the first photo and fishnets and Louboutins ... so ala chic! Now to click on the links ...

You have completed this scene to perfection!

So romantically feminine. Love it! Well coordinated from walls to furnishings, a great combination of soft pink to elegant furnishings. Great ideas to consider in a bathroom.

I have a brochure of the pink and white tile sitting on my desk as I type! The tile is Nalani by Orchid Ceramics. We are putting this in our master bath! I even have samples, it is gorgeous!

Marissa, that's awesome. Just love that delicate pink bath. Good luck with your project!

As a PR person who also does design work for my husband's construction projects, I'm as curious about the pitch as I am the product. Would love for you to post it.

Lovely blog, by the way.

I was reading something else about this on another blog. Interesting. Your position on it is diametrically contradicted to what I read earlier. I am still contemplating over the opposite points of view, but I'm tipped heavily toward yours. And no matter, that's what is so great about modernized democracy and the marketplace of thoughts on-line.

Something to say, gorgeous?
