Already Honeysuckle-d.

Alli Stripe pillow case and quilt cover from Country Road.



After seeing Honeysuckle 18-2120, the nominated Pantone colour for 2011, I didn't think I would be jumping on the bandwagon too quickly. I'm not a huge pink/red fan - I leave that to my sister.
Then I realised I already have. I brought this fresh bedlinen a few months ago and it definitely has the Honeysuckle stripe running right through it. Honeysuckle-d in already.

Pantone Colour 2011 - Honeysuckle

In November, Pantone annouced the colour for the year 2011. It is the bold 'Honeysuckle' -
"Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new color, for a brave new world. Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through the year. It’s a color for every day – with nothing “everyday” about it.
A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life."
So if you thinking that you need something uplifting in your interiors- a small dose of Honeysuckle will be 2011's way to go.
