Orange Yellow Pink Bedroom
How do you like my new bedroom? She asked me.
It was bright cheerful, colorful, with wonderful touches.
I loved it as much as anyone has ever loved a bedroom.
Because it reminded me of my childhood, my preteen years.
It is an orange, yellow, pink combination of colors and fabrics.
The first time I saw these colors together was in the sixties.
Walking into this room reminded me of my preteen years.
The years when I discovered fashion magazines for teenage girls.
In the sixties, these magazines featured only two-color combinations.
Either the combo of orange, yellow and pink or a turquoise green blend.
For the first time, we had permission also to combine plaids and florals.
Paisleys, stripes and dots were freed up to live together too.
