summertime blues
Yesterday marked the first official day of summer and with all this heat and humidity, I’m thinking of cool, watery blues to inspire me! I just started working remotely on a small summer cottage in the Outer Banks where the client requested lots of blue -running the gamut from pale blue to navy- mixed in…

navy + coral
If you’ve been following my blog for any length of time, you know that I love me some navy blue (hello, logo!) Navy blue is the ultimate neutral-it goes with every color imaginable and a little bit can go a long way. Lately, I’m loving it paired with coral pink-the perfect combination for summer! It…

surf + sand wedding
I seriously think I chipped a tooth when my jaw dropped after stumbling upon these gorgeous images of a Laguna Beach wedding by husband and wife photography team Troy and Amy Glover!

red is for love
Red is a great accent color and makes a big impact in small doses-throw pillows, lamps, flowers and even books. I love red-it was the color of my first car, I carried Black Magic roses in my wedding bouquet, my closet is peppered with lots of red and, more often than not, my toes sport…

tangerine tango
Pantone’s color of the year for 2012 is tangerine tango and what a great pick, if you ask me. While it’s certainly not a hue for the faint-hearted, everyone can use a little orange in their life-in small doses, this vibrant shade adds a pop of color to the gloomy winter and reminds me of…
