Monochromatic Monday :: Merry Berry

I spent the weekend putting the finishing touches on my Christmas decor, and after three days of decking the halls, holiday music and hot cocoa by the fire…I’m fully in the spirit. One of the things I love about decorating for Christmas is the endless array of color palettes from which to choose. Gone are the days of green and red being the only options, and looks can range from glam to modern to totally rustic. For today’s board, I went all-out girly with an over-the-top palette of berry, fuchsia and gleaming gold. There’s a part of me that’s always dreamed of thinking pink for Christmas, but I haven’t dared to go there yet. For this party, I’d don a feminine dress wrapped up with an oversized bow, drape the mantle in pink tinsel and create a centerpiece in an ombré of shades ranging from cream to magenta. I’d love to know…would you dare to go pink for the holidays?
