Color Block

There's something so refreshing about summer. The colors, the heat, and the long days make it easy to fall it love with the season. I'm getting inspired this year by fun Etsy finds - including Kilim's shoes. Made from hand-woven Turkish rugs and bound by supple leather, they might be the perfect go-to slip on for that unique pop this year. Of course, Ikat pillows are always on my mind, especially when it comes time to find that perfect summer ensemble that'll put me in the right mood.

antsy for color

i don't know what it is....maybe it's just that we had a few rain drops last night and i'm now seeing clear skies...but i'm desperate for a little color or change. i can't decide if i want to indulge in a new throw pillow for the house, or a fun pair of earrings for an update wardrobe look...but i'm getting antsy to get out and explore the possibilities with the weekend nearly upon us!
