Color, Design & Style Inspiration

Since picking up the Brides mag last month it is becoming a real staple for cute stuff. I like everything about their magazine except the dresses. odd. but anyway. ive gotten hip and am checking them out at the library. so much more bang for my buck and a real motivation to keep those astronomical late fees to a minimum.

anyway, this month's isn't actually this months. its from Feb of this year. but still just as cute as if it were this month's. these are some great color combos and not just for weddings. they're great for interiors and fashion. and the styling of the shoot is divine. so many goodies beautifully crammed into just one frame.

BLUSH + ORANGE

this colore makes that perfect coral that soft, fun and with a lil luxury AND the charles david lace, peep-toe booties are so sweet and slutty at the same time. yum.

 i cant say enough about how happy i am to see a woman of color in this ad. she is so beautiful and im lovin that they left her hair natural. not a big fan of the dress but the want to snatch the Badgley Mischka earrings straight off the page...can you say marrakesh?

PALE BLUE+BONE

 the bow on that Amanda Pearl shoe! too many things to pick just one.*

is she fly or what? i cant get enough of her (in the most hetero way possible). check the sequined Adriana Orshini earrings and Santi bangle.*

 EMERALD+CHARTREUSE

 

 i guess this could be called monochromatic but it has so much pop its def not mono on style.

 luv miss thang but the chenille chair is the stunner in this pic! i love a modern color on a classic piece. i had a pair of suede Bennetton penny loafers in the exact colors. i was a head of my time....(oh, snap out of it)

PURPLE+PEACOCK

 they saved the best for last. this set up is oplulance at its best. can u say upgrade! yes, yes, yes to the whole thing.

and i think this is the best shot of missy also. well this and the bone is a very close 2nd. i dont think they could've picked a better model for this shoot. the details calls it retro chic. its just fab.

*i was unable to find websites for these designers but their items are in lots of various shops online.
