Color Inspiration: Spring Green

May 092011

Happy Monday, a new week after another wonderful, sun-filled weekend – spent playing basketball followed by an afternoon at the market, lovely long sunday afternoon park visits with the puppy, and the impossibly exciting scent that summer is coming; along with the promise of bright mornings and lacy white dresses, breakfast on the balcony and shades of green emerging all around.

Hope you have a beautiful, inspired new week. xo

A few stolen moments of sunshine and a little more frequent spring days lately, a favorite thing is having all the windows and doors thrown open and the air filled with the scent of summer. Always drawn to the full blooms of peonies, especially the pink ones; and adore the idea of placing bouquets and vases on window sills.

Hope you have a wonderful, relaxing weekend, xo

{p.s} wishing a wonderful, happy mother’s day to all mothers in the world, and to my mother, whom I love indefinitely.

Lately, an adoration for seventies-inspired fashion, and recently, have been drawn to the rustic elegance of warm and woodsy places, especially when filled with shades of walnut, tan and neutrals; and paired with crisp whites and dramatically dark accents.

Could spend all day reading in this enchanted sun drenched corner for two, with floral arrangements by the window, in hues of teal, a little bit of gold and peach – and perhaps one of the sweetest things is happening upon flowers in unexpected places, indoors and out.

Have a newfound love for tailored suits, in shades of tan and camel, and especially when intermingled with ivory – and immediately, intricately ornate doorways, sparkling jewels, chanel no 5 and always the most delectably flavored macarons in the most elegant hues, become impossibly irresistible.
