pink saturday, october 25.

Hello hello! And welcome to another Pink Saturday!

Curious? Pink Saturdays are brought to you by Beverly at How Sweet the Sound, and more information can be found here. Also, check out the latest post and find some other pink fanatics.

On with the pinkness!

Continuing last week's theme, Cait's Pink-ified Dorm, here is my dull, extra-long twin dorm room bed. Not super comfortable to begin with, but just add a memory foam topper and some cute accessories, and it feels just like home.



I am a big fan of decorative pillows. This one was a wonderful find, although I can't remember from where.



Finally, let me introduce you to Izzy:



For those Grey's Anatomy fans out there, yes, she's named after the famed artery-cutting doctor Ms. Izzy Stevens. My roomie Danielle and I watched Grey's every week, and there was an episode where George cheats on his wife with Izzy. The suspense built as he tried to find time to tell his wife. At the very end of one episode, he opens the door to their apartment, and after an awkward pause, he just says, "I slept with Izzy." For days, I would walk up to my roomie's doorways and repeat the line, with a look of seriousness. Then when I got my new stuffed pup and was having trouble finding a name, one of my roomies suggested Izzy. Because, well, I do sleep with her. And it stuck.

And because I'm just amazing like that...



Izzy was actually a prize I won at a Think Pink! Bingo Night fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. Coincidence? I think not.

Ah, then end to another Pink Saturday. Thanks for stopping by!

Cait,

Your post today was great. I love how even in your college dorm room you were able to pretty things up with a touch or two of pink. Your sweet puppy Izzy is just too cute. What a sweet litte companion to keep you company and make things feel more like home. Happy Pink Saturday!!
