Colours of Friday

I'm still feeling a little out of sorts at the moment, so I'm cheating again with the Blog Hop and stealing Melissa's (erm..the other Melissa) Colours of Friday.  I love that this week she's chosen white.  Such a soothing, beautiful colour.


I have two sons, so as you can probably imagine, my dreams of a white bedroom are several years away.  But a girl can drool over a few photos, right?


Wouldn't you just love a soft, white bedroom like this? A little green accent, billowing sheer white drapes, no chocolate handprints..

Sadly, due to the aforementioned boys, and the fact that I may actually be the world's clumsiest woman..I can't really wear anything white all that often either.

I love this coat - I want one!  Perhaps next winter..



It's such a beautiful colour to wear - soft, feminine.


One of my favourite photos of Kate Winslet - beautiful in white.


And Emma Watson - all grown up.



It's my favourite colour to put children in - both of my boys came home in white.  I love newborns in white - hanging on to that 'baby' stage for as long as possible.
 


Did you have socks like these when you were a little girl?  My sisters and I did.


More beautiful white..




I've still never seen the snow..is it as romantic as it looks?



White makes me think of the amazing Greek Islands (Alexander's teacher is about to head over for a few weeks, I'm green with envy).  Those stunning white buildings, showing off to perfection the cerulean sea.





So, tell me.  Are you a fan of white?  Do you wear it? Have it in your home? Blog your favourite white pics..





I'm including this as my Blog Hop Friday post.  Join Lori over at RRSAHM for details on how to enter the blog hop, and meet heaps of wonderful bloggers.

  2. Those are some fantastic pictures!

    My home has lots of white, but it's all in the form of things that can't be stained by dirty hands! White table, white shelves, white desk.

    And white walls that get horribly manky. :/

    I still use white towels for my son, but he's starting to realise that the white towels are somehow significant of his early years, and he tends to make a grab for my (coloured) towels when he gets out of the bath!

I know we're all busy, so the fact you've taken time out of your day to comment and connect with me means so much.
