Perfect Marie Antoinette Blue!

It was a lovely but chilly day in NYC. We spent it shopping and eating and then of course a quick peak at the famous Laduree! I was immediately drawn to the Marie Antoinette Macaron. I think it was definitely because of it's gorgeous color! A deep Robin's Egg Blue with a lovely cream center, it was almost to pretty to eat, but of course I did. It was delicious and I am glad I did my TRX class before we went because I ate a second one as well!  All the way home I was a bit obsessed with that lovely color and it's name,"Marie Antoinette"! As soon as I got home I had to search for a paint match and interiors that even Marie Antoinette herself would love with that intriguing Robin's Egg Blue.  I think I found some beauties and I believe that Dix Blue from Farrow and Ball may come very close to my new obsession Laduree's (Marie Antoinette Blue)!

      That movie about her was incredible and that macaron was lemon tea flavored- simply scrumptious!
