pinspiration: rose quartz + palm leaves

I've noticed two of the biggest trends for this summer coming together in a beautiful way lately, especially on Instagram and Pinterest. Social media seems to be loving the combo of green palm leaves and Rose Quartz, one of Pantone's Colors of the Year for 2016. It's a combination that feels classic and fresh at the same time, perfect for summer!

Pinspiration: The Dramatic Side of Rose Quartz

Now that everyone has had a little time to adjust to Pantone choosing two Colors of the Year for 2016 (seriously, it was apparently a huge deal in design circles), I'm still finding myself much more drawn to Rose Quartz. I've shared some inspiration featuring the sweet side of Rose Quartz already, so today I'm turning the tables with some Pinspiration that puts a dramatic spin on this color trend that blends mauve, blush, and rose gold.
