I can't believe we're 39 days into the earth's rotation and I have yet to mention the 2011 color of the year. Introducing: Honeysuckle, or Pantone 18-2120. Most who know me know I'm not a pink girl. I don't like pink. I don't wear pink. I don't buy pink for my daughter (correction: I
sometimes buy pink for my daughter because there aren't many options otherwise).
Those who know me well, however, know that I have a weird pink side. I like bright pink. Garish pink. Neon pink. I like it as nail color. I like it as an accessory. I love it on a wall. While the color of the year is a bit tepid for my liking, I'm here to give a shout out to my kind of pink: welcome 2011!
First of all, have you ever seen anything cuter than these gummi bear lights? Secondly, the bright pink guy has the right amount of style and quirkiness that I would actually consider using it to decorate Scout's room.
Artist/director Julian Schnabel is not afraid to be bold. Behold his West Village home, the Palazzo Chupi.

By the way, here's how Pantone describes the color of the year: "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."
