Color Duo: Orange and Green

Keeping with the pumpkin theme I decided to chose orange and green this week for a color combo.
Before browsing the internet for images I didn't think I'd find anything that great, I mean orange and green?
I was pleasantly surprised to find a few. I think the secret to making this color combo work is to use it in small doses.  As much as we all love Halloween, you don't want to live in a pumpkin... right?

Color Duo: Navy and Green

This week I made a new header for my Grenada blog and did the layout and background in navy and green.  I love this color combination, it was my college's colors, to represent the beautiful blue skies and green fields of Ohio... but maybe it should be the the blue Caribbean waters (which aren't navy...) & the green palm leaves instead. 
Anyone have any ideas of how I can make money and stay in Grenada.... forever? no work permit. no resources. too expensive to ship things. oh & my husband would probably leave me..........

Color Duo: Purple and Green

My friend Ellen's wedding colors were purple and green.  When she told me this I truthfully thought "WHAT?!" but it turned out absolutely beautiful!
I've been seeing this unusual color combo pop up and I think it's so fresh and interesting!

Color Duo: Blue and Orange

ok so finally we're to a color duo that isn't my "favorite" haha!
I don't typically like orange, but I saw a few images on pinterest that sparked my interest.
they are after all complementary colors (opposite each other on the color wheel) so they were destined to go together!
and while some may say this is quite similar to turquoise and coral like last week... but its also really different. promise.

zebra and floral?  yes!!!!

you know what I have noticed from scouring the internet for images of blue and orange rooms??
texture and pattern make it work. and that I love.

Color Duo: Turquoise and Coral

These colors just scream beach to me!  I love the combo and I'm in a huge beachy phase right now as I prepare myself for the thought of moving back to the states and away from my beloved island. 

Inspiration:  This picture from our recent trip.  I love this top its from the Gap, but I got it at a yard sale for .50cents!

and these images from pinterest have me swooooooooning.

Color Duo: Pink and Navy

If I could get married again it would probably be pink and navy. or maybe something else.
I am so glad I never have to get married again. that was way too much stress in my life.
but I may be asking for help in the furture for my sister's 10 yr anniversary vow renewal ceremony!
more about that later.

I love this combo be it really preppy or really sophisticated.
pink + navy = beautiful
