You live in color

Color. We see in it, we live in it. Some of us embrace the color; some are afraid of it. Whether you're a color nut or a timid tangerine, we've found some fabulous little finds in breezy blues and sunshine yellow to add some pizazz to your place.

Teal Art Deco dresser, Poppyseed Creative Living. Poppyseed has amazing little pieces of furniture painted in bewitching hues, chosen ingeniously for each individual piece!

Dogwood Flower Lidded Vessel, Whitney Smith Pottery. Another fabulous shop with incredibly colorful, elegant wares.

Tiny Golden Suns, 3 Lambs Design. Color your walls with whimsical, nostalgic, and inspiring art from 3 Lambs.

Darling Bleu Jardin, king duvet cover, Pretty Plum Sugar. An absolutely adorable shop full of lounge wear and home goodies.

And finally, My Prescription for Anti-Depressive Living, by the endearing and wonderfully fun Jonathan Adler.

Enjoy your sight--give yourself fabulous, colorful, and gorgeous things to look at!

stripes

Nautical. Whimsical. Zebraic. Subversive. Stripes have a long fashion history, and an incredible visual range. They photograph extremely well and take ordinary pieces, from clothing to housewares, to extraordinary heights! Here are some stripes we love.

Clever Nettle and the secret society...

We were searching Etsy for a high waisted skirt to feature in an outfit-themed entry we're working on, and we came across Clever Nettle's shop. If you're not familiar with Clever Nettle, they carry darling vintage clothing and...something too wonderful for words. May we present, The Billuminati:

"The Billuminati is one of the most elusive of all secret societies, open only to the finest quality Bills and Williams that the world has to offer..."

"These portraits were discovered by infiltrating the organization and they reveal some of the most famous current members, from actors to presidents..."

"This project is a combination of secret fake history, humor and art."

Vintage clothes: Awesome! Billuminati: Total Genius.
