Malaysia inspiration: bananas Thaipusam – part 2

Welcome back lovelies, I hope you have some sunnies to hand as this post may be an eensy bit bright today…

I’ve been head over heels about the colour combo of pink and orange for a while now, in fact I designed our wedding stationery suite in these shades last year:

So I’ve been hankering after some of this clashing goodness for a while – here’s my round up of the best fabrics out there, let me know which is your fave!

ethnic pink and orange fabrics

{clockwise from top left: pink brocade, pink/yellow tribal, orange ikat, pink/orange sunburst, pink/orange stripe, pink/orange ikat, purple/orange/blue floral, pink/orange small ikat}

And here are few interiors examples – I’m definitely a less is more kinda gal when it comes to these shades, but a few pops of bright can really transform a space:

  2. Hey!I am in the court waiting my turn, I had a full day yesterday, but I can not miss your daily inspiration, right? I like the first fabric and the stripes one;) And, yes, a little bit of color is a must;)I like the orange chair with that geometric print cushion, a little bit of purple, for me, please;) and that house looks like a Mediterreanean place or Carribean?kisses

  5. Yes! Yesyesyes! Elly, this color scheme is my favorite thing EVER! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! And I have to take a minute to swoon over your wedding stationary…le sigh. :)

  6. Elly, that is serious eye candy! Lol. Orange+pink is a “happy” combination. I’ve “arrived” at WordPress finally, now I have to redesign my new site :( …. But I’m glad I made the switch.
