Color Duo: Pink and Yellow

I was inspired by a hibiscus flower I saw in the Grenada rain forest for this color combination. 
One of the great things about living in Grenada is the abundance of flowers. inspiration abounds!

I thought pink and yellow would be a fun combo to look at outside of nurseries.  That's what I think of when I hear pink and yellow - babies. 
to me, pink and yellow work best when combined with white or gray.
either contemporary & cool or cottage & cozy.
oh and there's the vintage look that I love too.
Let's look at pink and yellow all grown up.

 ok so not too grown up. love Kate Spade.

 this is so fresh and fun

The brighter side.  Hot pink and bold yellow. and books. 

 same room different view and ta-da, they added a globe!

 & will I ever get sick of Zebra? no!
