Seeing Coral

Coral. 
Everywhere I look, I see this beautiful color. 
My daughter and I did some shopping over the weekend
and I can't get over how much coral-colored happy was all around.
Have you noticed it too?
Here are some of my favorite finds that I wish were mine, all mine!


Zappos


Overstock


But suppose you want just a hint of coral?

I think I really may need to buy this sweet starfish necklace!


Dress Barn

My daughter fell in love with this dress, so needless to say, I bought it for her!


As if coral is not pretty enough on its own, look at how pretty it looks
 paired with aqua.
Shannon, this part is for you!

So tell me.  What do you think of coral? 

Just so you know, this sweet jacket leapt into my arms in Macys. 
Would you believe it if I told you there was only one
hanging on a remote rack with nothing else around it and
 it just happened to fit me?
Hmmm....very strange.   


There was no way I was letting it go. 
Let the coral madness begin!

Have a good one.

  1. I love how colors come around again. You're too young to remember the first "go round" of coral. I always loved the softness of the color...a muted orange really.

    Love the dress you bought your daughter and I KNOW that God put that coat all by itself just so you could find it. Great find! xo Diana

  2. Oh lovely. I unfortunately cannot wear coral easily. I did see a coral and cream striped rug (9X12) at HomeSense yesterday and smiled...it was so lovely.
    Gina, I am having a fireplace party, hope you drop by and show off your lovely fireplace.

  4. Cute jacket! And yes, I've notice the coral this season. I just bought a coral sweater. I like it on me better than orange. But seems orange is popular too.

  8. Love, love, love to wear coral. I love the way it makes my skin look. Tan and healthy. Great for after the winter time when I get as pale as can be...Hee, hee, hee. Love it paired up with aqua too. Wishing you a wonderful new week my friend.

    Much love,

  9. Yes, I have noticed Coral everywhere. Especially have seen lots of fabrics of coral and aqua. I just bought a crochet vest that was Coral. In fact I am wearing it in the pic at Slide Rock. I almost bought a pair of sandals but changed my mind at the last minute. Love your jacket. One thing about Coral. They'll see us coming. lol!

  17. Gina, I love your new coral jacket and your daughter's dress. And you should definitely order one of those starfish necklaces. It's gorgeous. Coral is one of my favorite colors to wear. I went shopping this weekend, too, and saw lots of coral. I was trying to match some green shoes, so I didn't get any coral things. I even love ORANGE!

  21. Coral is in my color wheel and that jacket would look so fabulous on me...put it in your will for me. I knew orange was an emerging color this spring, I guess coral is close!
