BLUE

There are certain colors I seem to gravitate towards. Blue happens to be one of them. I adore every shade and am excited to be working it into my neutral home this year.


The working shutters of the Bodie and Fou french home has me head over heels. There is a local home that is like this, I want to live there, I hope it comes up for sale once we are ready to buy. I simply adore it.


She looks lovely in blue. Love her dark brows and pretty freckles showing through. Now if only I could actually read Les Composantes. Thier images inspire me so.

I am sure you all have already seen this image, but it is one that I can not get enough of. I hope to recreate it one day. So pretty.


This is me, please excuse my awkward arm. The Mr. was testing light for this past weekends wedding and maybe I had an itch? Who knows, but I wanted to share my new favorite shirt. Oh, and a belt would have made this outfit so much cuter, but I forgot it at home.

Oh to be a natural beauty like you Paula, sigh. Love the image of the tub the most, in fact, I love love it. xo

I once saw a picture of all white walls with inset areas for windows. The insets were painted turquoise, and were the perfect little pop of color! The insets were so deep you could set items in them as if they were shelves…very primitive looking window slots, but so chic. :)

blue is one of those colors that i used to only wear and avoid incorporating in my home -- but i'm enjoying my grey/blue bathroom walls and am thinking of working it in a few more places around here. esp after seeing these lovely images.

Love that Bodie and Fou house. Quite possibly the perfect vacation home. Or maybe in your case - everyday home!

It looks like you're directing...love it. Hope you're having a fantastically happy, blue day!

I love your focus on blue this week. I too am in the midst of a home makeover and blue and neutral beiges are my colours of choice! I look forward to seeing your next home decorating inspirations.
