Apologies, dear readers, many many apologies because I find myself falling victim to blogging tendency that I find most irritating in other design bogs - namely, too much writing and not enough pretty pictures! Mortification and sorrow abound. In order to atone for my sins, I thought I would do a montage of yellow chinoisere wallpaper, which is an option I am considering for the dream house dining room... Juicy Couture's Pamela Skaist-Levy's house, featured in Bazaar, inspired the thinking. I just LOVE everything about this room...

Those who know me well know that I need absolutely no excuse to expound on the color pink (you'll note this blog's title). But since it is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I thought I would follow Mrs. Blandings' fabulous lead and do my bit to raise awareness by blogging on pink for the day. Instead of going the Dorothy Draper route, and don't get me wrong , I ADORE Ms. Draper, I thought I would reflect on my most favorite use of pink EVER, my magical wedding reception:

So one of the "must-haves" for our dream house, which we may have found ... *IF* we can convince the sellers to knock $500,000 off the listing price. Minor hiccup. Our dream house must have a designated space for me to create. Ideally, this would be a cottage by the sea where I could write, craft and spraypaint old furniture to my heart's content. However, unless we win the lotto, which is obviously totally possible, it will most likely be a room in our house where I can write, craft and spraypaint old furniture to my heart's content.

Being an uber-prep by birth, somewhat by choice but mainly by basic resignation to the fates, I've been thrilled by the recent resurgence of preppy chic. From J.Crew to Jonathan Adler, the blue blazer and pearls are definitely back in full effect. I am particularly pleased by the kelly green palettes that have been popping up everywhere. For instance this delicious bedroom from Mr. Adler:
I am passionately in agreement with this site... I will pay double for a subscription. Domino is the only magazine that actually delivers new and exciting, affordable and accessible decorating help..Anne
Definitively joining in, gals!
Hav you contacted every site on your blog roll?
Definitely add me onto the list. I was Really crushed when I heard that Domino was folding.

Please add us: www.moggit.blogspot.com to the list of blogs who are supporting the return of Domino. (Isn't that stated so positively? Like it's a foregone conclusion!)
We've definitely had our 'what were you thinking?' moments with Domino, but whether you loved it or loved to hate it-- or sometimes both in the same issue!-- Domino has always been about individuality (yay!) decor as an expression of one's self (yay!) and the idea that *anyone* can decorate on *any budget*. Period. (And yay again!) Quirky, fun, but above all accessible, it has been the one shelter mag to tell the truth about decorating.

I don't have a blog, but I'm a huge fan and subscriber to Domino and several design blogs. Please add me to the list and let's not allow Domino to go down without a fight. Maybe we can make a difference.
