Spring pastels: a girly post



Northern Italy, 19.3.2017



Eastern Finland, 20.3.2017 :)



Yllä näkymämme tänään aamupäivällä. Nyt iltapäivällä sade on lakannut. Tässä postauksessa on uusia ja vanhoja kuvia, jotka ilahduttavat minua tänään, toivottavasti myös sinua! :)



Tulipa 'Angelique', in June 2015



"Thinking pink" was the working title for this post, inspired by this month's cover of "Gloria", a Finnish women's magazine, but then I noticed that in the photos I wanted to post, there were many other colours too...






... like in these woollen socks. In March, they are still needed. :) I did have a pink trench coat, but alas I gave it away...






Some favourites:



ACO Daily Care -tuotteet -20% maaliskuun ajan monissa apteekeissa.
Kuvassa oleva puhdistusemulsio on suosikkini.



Vehicle Maintenance for Women: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know But Were Afraid to Ask by Charlotte Williamson. :) Originally published in 2004: 






A pretty cup:






Rosa 'Lumo' in July 2015






I'm decluttering. I will post some images, texts, etc. that I have found beautiful, interesting, etc. in the past years. I will store them in a digital form... and then possibly discard the originals.

This pretty mini calendar (in Italian) will not be thrown away. (You will see more pages soon.) It's from the year 2006 and, as it happens, it's valid this year! And... hmmm... in 2023 I will be able to use it again. :)

  1. Näkymä 19.3. ja 20.3. ja sinulla on nuo molemmat, mikä rikkaus! Pinkki on herkkää missä vain ja tällä kertaa kiinnostavin kuva on tuo viimeinen maisema, tiheä oksisto pinkkiä taustaa vasten on tehokas! Keväistä viikkoa!

  2. Oh, do I like pastel colours!? I sure do! :D Varsinkin tuossa ylemmässä auringonlaskukuvassa on aivan upea pastellitaivas! Pastellista viikkoa sinne!

  3. I do love pastel colours! Especially pinks like you've shown. The latitude makes an incredible difference in weather, as evidenced by your two photos. Bring on the pink! Have a wonderful week and I hope the snow melts quickly.

  4. These photos are so lovely! I like pastel colours... all colours of those woollen socks... And it's weird, because when I was young, I didn't like them so much. :) I wish you a beautiful week! Big hugs!

    I wish you a wonderful week dear Sara ♥♥♥

  16. Hej Sara!

    När man ser bilderna från Italien och från Finland kan man ju undra varför vi nordbor väljer att bo i dessa frusna länder. Men..jag vill nog inte byta, det finns mycket att njuta av i vår natur även om den är barsk ibland.

    Och igår var det vårdagjämning, ljuset vinner över mörkret!

    Kram!

    Yes, I love pastels... Especially pink! -smile-

    And I love that raincoat, on the magazine cover. I am too old, to wear it, but I love it.

  18. I love pastel colours and each home we've owned has been painted in them. My clothing is mostly pastels too - they're cheery, comforting and always pleasant to look at.
    All the pinks you shared were wonderful but as you noted, some of the other colours alongside are pretty too and help the pink to look all that much more beautiful.
    Happy Spring Sara!

  24. Hennon pinkit kukkasesi ovat ihania. Värinä se sopii hyvin kukkiin, mutta ei omiin vaatteisiini :) Kivaa torstaita!
