...on the brain. 

(This is what just one gloriously sunny day will do to you in Seattle.)




How will I get anything done when these pencils will send me into daydreams of summer?






Too cute, amirite?







I'll take one* of each!







These should be mine, right?





Why can't it be like this for always?





{ it's sunny where you are, isn't it? you lucky devil, you.}

Can I just wear all the colors today?

Working on compiling more here.

I feel like a kid in an Etsy candy shop.

The aisles stocked with anything sweet, colorful and cute.

Looks like it leapt off the pages of a storybook.

Why does winter seem to bring on the fashion blahs? 
All around me are black coats, brown shoes and the winter blues.


Nothing cheers me up like a fesitval of pigments.

{ gifts for the color junkie }


"Sorbet Necklace" by Rivington

I love these delicious, unusually paired colors.  Seriously.  It's love.
Holy crap it's gonna be hard to not snatch up all of this week's finds...







"Teal Chevron Stripe with Emerald ALEXIS Clutch" by ao3designs

 Sometimes a little splash of color makes a huge statement -- especially against this awesomely bold pattern.







"sparkle and shine brooch" by ashdel

There is something so French about these colors to me.  I'm not sure why.  Mais, c'est bon - je t'aime, petite brooch.  ( haha - i don't have the francais for "brooch." )







"Vintage- Colorful Polka - Dot Scarf" by lisabarton


I am just now realizing that this scarf totally reminds me of the old school Wonder Bread packaging.  It's all I can see now.   Still awesomely colorful though.








"Forest Seedlings Tote (Vintage Floral Flames)" by littleoddforest

I have no idea how I just stumbled across this whimsical little shop.  It's filled with playful color combinations and adorable patterns.  I love the vivid yellow against the khaki, pink and navy.  Sooo contrasty!
