A lovely shade of green

Went to IFC Lane Crawford and they had a "Interior" decor section, selling furnishing. I dont care much for the overpriced furnishings, (Ok, maybe the oak pattered rug was rather interesting...) but I love the green shade for the bedroom and so I couldnt resist taking a shot of it to remind myself the next time I do a reno. I think the black and white photos (going for a crazy inhumane price of HK$28,000 each) helped enhance the look...
Ok, frankly I am a sucker for a more masculine bedroom look though my partner prefer a more neutral look. Ah...brings back fond memories when my eldest brother had helped me rid my ghastly pink room and replace it with a shade of blue when I was young. Why on earth did my parents think I would like pinkremain a mystery. What? Just because I am a girl? Sigh...guess all those years of staunchly refushing to wear frilly dresses and blatant ripping off all the laces off my little dresses when I was young wasnt abig enough hint to my mum that I will never be the "girl" she wanted...
In my new place, I had originally wanted to paint one wall of my bedroom in a metallic silver-grey and hang a black white painting but he was against it. He thought it was depressing...but I thot it was more DKNY. So we ended up with a mixed brown that didnt look like brown... but damn! I want that green!!! Well at least he never have to put up with sissy look, I never quite understand how can some husband let their wife get away with it and stand sleeping in a room of flora and frills...worse, in pink shade ...*shivers*


PS: No shots are allowed but I didnt know that till the shot was taken and I quickly scurried off...

I can't help laughing when I read that u "ripping off all the laces off my little dresses"... I did the same thing when I was a little kid, just can't stand it brushing my skin, even till now I only love 100% cotton or lycra.
