pretty in pink and just in time

even those who hate the holiday can surely appreciate the inundation of pink everything, right? below are some of my favorite {pink} finds of late.
a hot pink chair becomes a provocative focal point in an otherwise blank canvas.
a pink window ups the charm in an old-school kitchen (as if that refurbished post office unit weren't enough).
the perfect way to bring a small dose of valentine's day into your home: a pretty pink bouquet. (though the dining chairs would work nicely too.) i hereby dare you to nix the red roses and go for something a little less obvious.
go big or go home, right? a heavily saturated hue dominates a family's foyer.
i can't decide which i prefer: the overwhelming presence of the egg chair or the discrete display of the disco ball in the bookshelves.
this room is valentine's day.

desk du jour

i don't particularly care for the actual desk here (in fact, i think i hate it) but i love the drawing on the opposite wall, the hodgepodge of colors (kelly green lamp, hot pink and yellow pencil cups, teal and lime green containers...), and the fact that they all work in this otherwise neutral environment.

Style Icon {Kate Bosworth}

this blue-and-brown-eyed beauty has killer street style and an enviable track record on the red carpet to boot. dressed up or dressed down, kate bosworth is definitely one to watch.
au naturel in calvin klein.
accessorizing her alexander wang mini with red lips and leopard print heels.
a neutral number from rodarte.
stealing the show in alexander mcqueen.
keeping it casual in calvin klein. (but could somebody fix her ankle strap?!)
straying from her neutral tendencies in hot pink preen.
backless in gucci.
an easily duplicated casual look: aviators, black peacoat, neutral bucket bag, skinny jeans, pointed flats.
a crossbody bag and sky-high wedges make a simple t-shirt and jeans combo something special.
classically chic in a white skirt suit and black pumps.
a signature kate look: straight blond hair, natural makeup, a khaki short suit by chloƩ, and great shoes (same ones as two photos above!).
