Color Crush: Springtime Pop

Thursday, May 2, 2013 / Ez

colorcrushspringtimepop5131 I’ve been having a love affair with flowers for quite some time now…and with Springtime’s bounty colorfully bursting out everywhere I look, my adoration has grown into an obsession (you likely know this already if you follow me on Instagram). So when I spotted this amazing art piece by Becca Stadtlander, I couldn’t help but imagine it translated into a color crush post. Flowers AND Springtimey pops of color…yes please!

Color Crush: Bright Poppy and Warm Neutrals

Thursday, March 7, 2013 / Ez

This post started weeks ago but featured only basic neutrally-hued goods. It was pretty, but lacking something so I stuck it into my “pending” file. Then I discovered this gorgeous image from Thuss + Farrell (via) and immediately knew what the board needed…a burst of bright poppy! How perfect!

Color Crush: Black, Blossom, and Pale Blue

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 / Ez

Oh it’s been ages since my last Color Crush post! Sigh! I sure have missed creating them.

Anyhow, this one was sparked when I spotted this beautiful scarf a few weeks ago. Unfortunately these shades of pink and blue most often remind me of baby showers or nursery decor, however I’ve found that with a pop of moody black they have a whole new appeal. Feminine with a mysterious edge…don’t you agree?! xo Ez

A Subtle Golden Touch

Thursday, January 17, 2013 / Ez

Lately (for far too long actually) I’ve been crushing on glamorous little pops of metallic gold on everything from home accessories to fashion. I especially love it when the gilding is done in an understated or unexpected way…like a sprinkle of gold studs on the heel of a pair of black flats or a gold stapler on a desk. Pretty!

Pinterest Picks: Mint to Emerald

Wednesday, January 16, 2013 / Ez

It’s probably been more obvious than I’d like, that I’ve been having a bit of a struggle getting back into the swing of things here on this good ol’ blog of mine. Things are picking up and getting better, but it’s a slow process. Thank you all again so much for your support and encouragement (both through comments and emails) over the past two weeks. It has meant more to me than I can ever express!

Anyhow, for today I figured what better way could there be for me to spark an interest in finding pretty things to share in the coming weeks, than a quick little virtual toe-dip into a pond of my favorite hue. Ahhh! Come on in the water’s fine! xo Ez

P.S. You can find an entire Pinterest board that I’ve devoted to this color right here! You can also find past posts in my Pinterest Picks series here…and/or follow me over on Pinterest too!
