SPLASH

It's on days like today, that I love to be by the pool or on the beach! What would I do without the summer? I am so inspired by the color palette in these images. Aqua, teal, mint and turquoise!  (a bit like my blog header, the mint and turquoise at least) Off to work!

Or even better yet, on the Riviera

ANTHROPOLOGIE BATHING SUIT. THIS IS SO PRETTY. I THINK I WOULD NEED A BIT MORE OF A TAN TO PULL IT OFF!

I love this vintage shot and that darling cabana.

Have a Colorful Weekend!

Feeling Fall..

With October quickly approaching I was inspired this weekend to purchase my pumpkins! I love decorating my home this time of year indoors and out, with pumpkins, gourds, bittersweet, kale and flowers.
A bit of festive inspiration for the traditionalist, transitionalists and purists!

Quick tips for displays indoors or out

• Vary the height of your objects, tall + short etc.
• Include different color hues, even if they are subtle - this creates depth
• Mix up the visual and tactile textures, rough with smooth etc.- this creates interest
• Introduce an array of sizes, small + large etc.
