It seemed like the world was stressful enough before Irma. And then she went on her rampage destroying our peace, calm and security.

And that means one thing: home interior colors follow fashion so here it comes into your home. For many, it never left.

It’s everywhere: Pink. The color.
Fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer said that “Anything is possible with sunshine and a little pink.”
