Breakfast at Tiffany's
Then retire to your suite to sleep 'til noon, thanks to this eye mask and tassle earplugs. If only the rest of my family understood that this is the way I was born to live.
This color combo has been ubiquitous throughout history, as early and the Egyptian and Greeks. It was hugely popular in the 50's and 60's, when Breakfast at Tiffany's was made. Remember the scene where Patricia Neal's scandalous character phones her lover to say she won't be able to meet him as her husband mixes drinks in the foreground. As a young girl I got that this was sort of wrong, but I sure gave her points for her glamorous living room! Check out the white and gold painted credenza with greek key and grecian figures.

It's all the same palette as the Avalon bar and this outfit, which would also make for a fun night.

In this more laid back ensemble, you could knock back a few blue martinis, slouch a little, even chow down a steak dinner (gotta love a roomy, drapey knit). I'd take either outfit, either room, anytime.

Those outfits are totally fabulous! I especially love the bracelet with outfit #1.
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly, Marie Antoinette's colors were this shade of blue and gold...so beautiful! I love the outfit you put together...if only, if only!
ReplyDeleteI saw your comment on Sophie-Nicole's blog, Inspiration Bazaar! If you want to join in on the art/craft swap, email me at katevang.3@gmail.com, and I can give you the details, it would be great to have you join in!
Alexandra .... these outfits are stunning and the perfect combination of turqoise blue, gold and white. Count me in for blue martinis at the Avalon Bar and I think the second outfit would be perfect! I love the interior design of the bar... very elegant! I think they are very Marie Antoinette colours. Have a lovely day and beautiful post!

ReplyDeleteOh how I love pops of tourquise! The clutch and the chairs are my favorite!!
ReplyDeleteI designed my wedding dress in this color palette. I know it may read tacky, but we (my husband and I) were married in Vegas and I wanted an appropriate "Desert" dress.
ReplyDeleteInspired by the sky and sand, it was perfect...
