Today is rainy in NYC. Gray. Dark. Cold. Ick.
But even those these rooms use the same color palette as the sky outside, they seem warm and cozy.

Cobalt Blue
I am totally digging this blue dress on Minka Kelly. I mean, she can do no wrong with that face and body, but still! She also scores tons of points in my book for being on one of my all-time favorite shows, Friday Night Lights. <single tear>
I found a similar dress by Dorothy Perkins. It's a little more conservative, a little more Mad Men.

I don't know if I would have enough guts to do this...
but I would definitely love to do this in my home. I absolutely love the blue + white + dark wood combination. It's so bold yet classic and clean.

Bathing Suit Inspiration
I think most women can agree there is nothing worse than bathing suit shopping. With the dressing room's horrible lighting, to the security sensor sticking right into the side of your boob, to the fact that you have your underwear on underneath, it's not pretty. Or fun. Usually I do my bathing suit shopping online, which is probably worse. But that's just the way a I roll! I saw this Tibi bathing suit and loved the navy, pink and white colors.
You may not be able to see from this small picture, but there is navy in there (it may look purple). Anyway, I also recently saw this room in House Beautiful, designed by Ken Fulk.
There is such a beautiful richness to the wall color, and the white and pink accent it perfectly. I then cane across this....

Woah. Too much. But I do love the shade of pink on the far wall and the couches. Although my home decor is mostly earth tones and deep neutral colors, I'd love to throw this in somewhere!

Red, White & Black
I recently bought a pair of red pumps and have been trying to figure out how to wear them more often. I have been playing it safe by wearing them with a simple black dress. But I saw these two dresses on Net-A-Porter and am inspired to be brave!

Even the model has on red pumps. How can I go wrong?? Now, where to find a black and white striped dress that isn't $400... That will take some work.

Speaking of red, white and black, check out this amazing living room, designed by Miles Redd (I am sure he meant no pun). It's bold and strong, yet looks very cozy. I'd love to have a statement piece of art on my wall just the one hanging above the couch. I think I could replicate it <>worried look<>. Maybe for my next project :)
