I Vowed to Give Up Hot Pink Home Accessories But...

This Jonathan Adler for Barbie capsule collection is temptingly rad. I did make a promise to embrace more grown-up tones in my new apartment, but I feel like I deserve at least one raspberry-hued lacquer stash box.

If I really felt compelled to splurge, I'd snatch up this Richard Nixon throw, which is nicely preppy. Or the trashcan. I really think they nailed the hot pink, no?

Meanwhile, if you're in NYC, hit up the Jonathan Adler/Calypso Home warehouse sale (from 30-75% off), from Thursday, October 22, through Saturday, October 24 (10-8 on Thursday and Friday, 10-4 on Saturday). It's at 38-16 Skillman Ave., Long Island City.

I'll be there, lurking around the Barbie section.
