pink perfection for spring

As the  mother of four boys, 

I like to pamper myself with pink. 

And, this Spring, Pink is everywhere! 

There are some incredible fashion essentials out here, 

some frivolous tasty treats, 

and so many ways to brighten up your living spaces, 

that "pinking it up" is  now easier than ever.  

Here are some of my favorite finds:

just the right shade of pink lipstick.

to pick the right one for your skin tone.

and it's got to be a pretty color too!
