    Taupe & Pink Wedding - by Fishy Face Studios on Polyvore.com...

  • The new Martha Stewart Weddings is out and has a beautiful feature on the colour combination of fuchsia and taupe. The taupe really makes the fuchsia pop, but it’s a little softer on the eye than fuchsia paired with white. The warm undertones give a cosy feel, but can be made cooler if paired with the right colour. Taupe is such a lovely neutral colour that it can really work with any colour scheme Bolds and Brights Tangerine green Lime green Cherry red Aqua Purple Modern Moody Gunmetal gray Black Chocolate Brown Silver Teal Soft and sweet White Pale green Pale yellow Pale Pink Pale...

Combine with any of the browns -       Creams, off whites, white -       Rust and bronze brown -       Metallics – silver, bronze, pewter -       Apricots of any shade -       Greens – of any shade from Kelly to sage to spring green -       Pinks – from old rose to baby pink -       Berry colours – deep amethysts (the purples with a grey undertone), deep berry red -       Blues – navy, sky, Tiffany or baby blue -       Dresses in this colour lend them...

    Black, brown and grey aren’t the only neutrals… Taupe is such a lovely option!

    It's probably a fair assumption to say that most us love pink, myself included. Today, I've pulled some of my favorite images with beautiful blush blooms, vintage and modern details, and lovely splashes of green and taupe. For those of you planning a spring wedding, this palette is fresh with a touch of whimsy.

  • I’ve been wanting to play this inspiration board out for a little while. I dabble in colour but am always led back to neutrals. This combination of black and creamy white with the neutral taupe inspires thoughts of vintage style elegant celebrations. I found the room setting in the top right from a blog I love (please tell me who it was, I lost it!) and the board evolved.
