Inspired: Anthropologie

Oh how I love getting email updates from Anthropologie! This email graphic especially made me happy...the colors are so cheery, aren't they?

Monocolor

Another interesting article in New York Magazine (I may need to subscribe after this!) is One Is the Loveliest Color about 5 New Yorkers living their lives in a daily ensemble of one color. New Yorker's really know how to create a signature look, don't they?

Inspired: Photo Display

I find this photo display absolutely delicious! What a great way to display photos of your loved ones and introduce powerful pops of color into your decor. I like the desk too!

Color of the Year

PANTONE® 18-3943 BLUE IRIS

I was looking through some of the Fall Collections from NY Fashion Week and noticed a heavy-handed trend of blues, greys and blacks. The blue was quite lovely and while contemplating it's hue, I remembered blue was Pantone's Color of the Year and realized it made its presence known in fashion this year, albeit, mostly in a more muted version.


Even Rachel Zoe got in on the blue action at Marc Jacobs.

***Update: On my new Mac with the kickass graphics card, the color of the year image swatch is showing a little more purple than it did on my other computer! Ooops! Maybe the color wasn't as hot this year in fashion as I previously thought it was. :) Wow..I feel as though I have been colorblind until now!
