Color Inspiration: Turquoise


Turquoise has long been one of my favorite colors, especially to wear. If I had to guess, I'd put a solid half of my clothing in the blue family, and even more leaning towards this rich, stunning hue. Not quite blue, not quite green, it reminds me of the ocean and looking at it immediately makes me feel relaxed. I would love to live in a bedroom decorated like the one below (and someday, you may see some photos of my room looking eerily inspired by turquoise on here). If I had a house, you bet I would try to paint it turquoise with blue doors. I haven't quite gotten around to the idea of turquoise lipstick, so for now I think I'll just stick to my nails frequently being painted a shade of blue! To celebrate my love of this color, I started a Pinterest board full of inspiration. You can check it out here!

Dream Home: Eclectic Layers

This week's dream home features one of my favorite things, in abundance-turquoise! Lots & lots of turquoise. Layered with other shades of blue, layered with chalkboard walls, on top of which sit rustic details and solid, modern neutrals. Each item tells a story, grounded by a unifying color palette.


Go here to view the entire home tour, along with the story behind the adorable couple who lives here.
