PRETTINESS: Luscious pastel colours


View of Positano - pastel colours

A look at Luscious pastel colours such as pale pink, minty green, powder blue, butter-y yellow, mauve, smoky grey, creamy beige and salmon-y melon…

 

Pastel colour palette

 

Pastel colours are the kindest, softest colours in the colour spectrum, and often associated with childhood, ballet, and weddings.

They add romance and whimsy – think old sepia photos, colourful birthday balloons, fairy floss and lollies, displays of vintage memorabilia, a watercolour scene in an artist’s studio, stacks of pretty children’s books, and sentiment-filled Spring-themed wedding photos.
