This rosy-hued palette is more sultry than sweet, thanks to the illuminating glow of a crystal chandelier and sky-high taper candles. Paired with aged metallic accents like mercury glass, these muted colors evoke an old-world charm, making them perfectly suited for a vintage-styled wedding. Dress your bridesmaids in a range of rose and lavender shades [...]

Color Palette: Robin’s Egg Blue, White, Tangerine, Coral
Friday, December 3, 2010
How cute is this board? I love the bold tangerine paired with the soft and subtle robin’s egg blue. Opposites on the color wheel – it’s no wonder why these hues pair so nicely together. And the coral adds just a tiny bit of dimension to the palette – offering up another layer of bold [...]

When it is 33 degrees at night in Northern California – it’s official – winter has arrived! In keeping with a pastel color theme, I had so much trouble narrowing down the images for this week’s post that I decided to throw them all together. I can’t get enough of the soft colors of dove [...]

Thursday, November 18, 2010
This color board was inspired by a gorgeous image I spotted on Pinterest a few weeks ago. It’s the close-up of the gray dress and yellow bouquet pictured above. Beautiful right? I must admit I’ve never been a huge fan of yellow. Don’t get me wrong – I’ve got nothing against it – it’s just [...]

Fall is in full swing and I am loving all the amazing colors that the season brings.

Hidden inside were pumpkin pancakes for a [...]

I don’t want to jump the gun or anything, but it’s getting quite cold up here in the Northeast and my thoughts are already starting to drift towards winter weddings. I know… but it’s almost here so why not dive in right? So when I think winter I think white. Inspired by last week’s White [...]

We’ve all seen the chocolate brown and pink (or blue) combination – but rarely do you see the hue paired with darker tones of purple like raspberry and plum. These colors have a real warmth and richness to them and exude the feeling of luxurious romance. I hope you enjoy this color palette as much [...]
