<h1 id="touch-of-pastel-a-soft-pastel-lora-for-sdxl-and-pony-gqdp0p689">Touch of Pastel – A soft pastel LoRA for SDXL and Pony</h1>Touch of Pastel is a gentle style LoRA based on my own photography, inspired by a pastel-colored retro hotel in Miami where I stayed a few years ago. I took hundreds of photos of its soft pink facades, mint interiors and golden-hour hallways. These became the foundation for this LoRA, supplemented with images I created using those originals as style references, and about 10% royalty-free material to round out the dataset.<h2 id="unlock-and-learn-eueu5111e">Unlock &amp; learn</h2>Want to create consistent AI characters and follow a tested photorealistic workflow in Automatic1111?

Perfect for giving your image that soft Miami pastel flair without harsh saturation or filters.<h2 id="when-to-use-it-mvw30kdx0">When to use it</h2>Start your prompt with <code>touch-of-pastel</code>, and include at least one element that suggests pastel coloration (e.g. “pastel ice cream”, “mint green sunglasses”, “pink hallway”, or “creamy light on white walls”).
