SCARLET, PLUM, and ROSE
Combine lush, painterly flowers, a palette of richly muted plums, roses, deep red accents, and gorgeous calligraphy that nods to old love letters and you’ll have the most romance-inspired celebration. This timeless palette is perfect for a winter event filled with glowing candles and sparkling details. I love the silver dress worn by Bergren Rameson, above right, and the glimmering jewelry, bottom row!

All these color palattes are amazing. Mine was light blue (back in the day)... trying to mimic the ocean view from Block Island!
