Shades of red and aqua

Liv's new Chook Leaf shoes

Ink & Spindle birch forest lamp shade

Lots of people like the combination of red and aqua, it's bright, happy, and has a bit of a retro vibe about it I guess. There's a flickr group dedicated to this colour combination. The shoes are pretty sweet too.
Yesterday, we were in Melbourne for my uncle's funeral. On the way home, we stopped in the city to pick up this lamp shade, that I ordered about a week before Christmas. It was finally ready for pick-up just before Easter, but with Andrew being at home doing bathroom renovations, we hadn't had a chance to go and get it. It was for my 30th birthday in January, worth the wait!
