Whispers of Purple

They say that purple is still on trend and here to stay for awhile.
Though it may not be my go-to color, I'm loving it in small doses.
These cloths draped over a table are just the whispers of the color I could go for.

Happy Friday everyone! Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you back here on Monday.

Lately Loving: Berry Hues

Last weekend I stumbled upon this beautiful home featured in Nuevo Estilo. Aside from rocking that perfect balance of streamlined yet full, I couldn't help but think of blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries when I saw it!
Perhaps I'm getting slightly bored with my beloved neutrals and muted tones because lately I'm in love with rich, saturated hues - colors that evoke mystery, drama, and strength. Isn't it interesting how the colors we gravitate towards seem to say so much about where we're at in life at any given time?
The oceanic blue in that painting is just perfect against the purples and golds in this room. It makes my eye perk up with excitement and slip into relaxation all at once. The way colors interact with each other and the effect they have on the way we feel is something I'll never tire of observing.
The only way the dark works for me is because it's anchored with so much white. I wouldn't be able to handle it any other way. The sofa reminds me of a cup of frozen yogurt, topped off with raspberries, just the way I order it. It's delicious!
What I find most fascinating about this home is the mix of blues and purples. The blue brings the masculine, the purple the feminine and together they create a space for anyone to love!

Color Trend: The Perfect Purple




Warm, luxurious, and seductive - the color purple made a splash in the design world earlier this year and is still going strong! It can be regal and masculine, but just as easily flirty and feminine. It's versatility gives it longevity, which is why I can't get enough of it! How about you? Would you use purple in your home?
