Colors ranging from ballerina pinks into deep Bordeaux crimson lend a dose of romanticism, while the dove grey brings in a touch of sophistication. I love how easy this color scheme is on the eyes, while still evoking a sense of drama to an event or space.

color inspiration: rainy day grey

I woke up this morning to a beautiful sunshine filled day, but by mid afternoon the clouds had rolled in followed soon after by a thunderstorm. Before I knew it, I was creating a board centered around stormy clouds, grey interiors, and cumulus cloud cookies. And for good measure, I went ahead and threw in a photo capturing my favorite rainy day activity-mid day naps.

Color Inspiration: peaceful palette (grey, blush, sienna, blue, cream, mint...)

Sometimes I think we can have a tendency to get too wrapped up in specific color schemes and forget that not everything has to be one of three colors or even the same shade of those colors to work well together. That's why I love this inspiration- it's incorporates a range of muted natural colors- mints, mosses, blushes, sienna- and then throws in that pop of blue for good measure. And thanks to none of the colors being too jarring, the effect is incredibly peaceful.
