honeysuckle & GOLDEN

.

This is my pick for best dressed at the Golden Globes yesterday, does anyone really care who wins? It is all about what they wore. Not necessarily so-but I seldom go sit in a theatre any more- rather I wait for netflix to fill the movie ticket. Julianne Moore always pulls something spectacular off-this time it is a one shoulder Honeysuckle Lanvin gown. It is a glorious color to wear-a bit harder to decorate with. Honeysuckle 18--2120 is Pantone's color of the year and has already been much talked about.

but in this room by Mica Ertegun, Honeysuckle is done at its best.





 (though any photographed room can appear a certain color-
if the first image is correct it is more honeysuckle than coral-but so hard to tell.)


& always- in praise of RED.


Another stand out was Alexa Chung. She co-hosted  NBC's pre-show of the Golden Globes. No pictures of Alexa Chung at the moment-  but there is a you tube video of the fashion darling at the event.
The dress is Valentino.

even better,
make the two colors the backbone of your decorating wardrobe- as Lisa Fine did flawlessly in this elle decor story-
