PERFECT PAIRS...

I absolutely fell in love with this entire editorial from Frederic Pinet over the weekend, and had to pair a few selections with some equally gorgeous interiors for a dose of spring to summer inspiration...

Sunshine may be fairly non-existent in Seattle, but flowers? Those we have plenty of. And nothing enhances their impact like a dose of dramatic black. I love arranging my blooms in black glass vases!

Loads of fresh white with pops of color has 'summer'. Adding whimsy just makes it that much better! I looooove an excuse to bust out my big sunhat. And, pom pom fringe on the bedding? Don't mind if I do! Adding that trim to a light coverlet might have to be my next project.

For some reason, layering on saturated color just feels appropriate for loungy summer days. Lush greens and spicy reds? Yes please! Pair them with tanned skin or tanned wicker. You kinda can't go wrong.

  7. Love all the hot, tropical colors... especially the parrot green. Thanks for the little hit of warm summer nights -- perfect for a chilly not-so-springish morning!

  15. Wow, you did an excellent job on these! And the simple coverlet with pom poms is fantastic. I've never seen that before and I'm {slightly} obsessed with world-inspired decor, so this is a happy surprise. Thanks for sharing (and adore your blog!). xoxojess
