A touch of pink brings Spring to any room of the home.

From a fabulous pink range in the kitchen

To a pink dining room

to an arrangement of flowers on your desk

We love it in any space.

Who wouldn’t love this fabulous combination in their bathroom?!

From a single bloom on a side table

to a full display just outside your window

or poolside

we don’t think it gets much chicer than pink!
\
But we think our favorite pop of pink may be on the cover of The Secret to Southern Charm. I just wanted to thank you so much for all of your support during these first few weeks of The Secret to Southern Charm Book tour. My novel even became a TARGET FICTION BESTSELLER AND A BOOKSCAN NATIONAL BESTSELLER! Thank you, for helping to make my dreams come true, for telling your friends and writing reviews, for hosting and coming to my events . . . I am here today because of you, and, even though we may not have ever met, I count you as one of the people I am most grateful for every day.
