INSPIRATION: PAMPAS GRASS

I DID IT! after months of sleeping on the floor i FINALLY bought a bed frame! i was in a bit of a rut… didn’t feel motivated or inspired to do much of anything related to my room so night after night, i would go to bed, look at the sad mattress on the floor and go to sleep. for me, a bed frame made all the difference and now that my room (and life?) are back in order i’ve been looking for inspiration to freshen up my bedroom and i think i found it…PAMPAS GRASS. i love the light and subtle presence they have in a room. think i might ned to pick some up this weekend…stay tuned!

MOOD BOARD: SUMMER LOVIN’

after polyvore sold their soul… discontinued their website leaving no trace of its existence, i had to look elsewhere for a creative outlet where i could organize all of my thoughts, ideas and inspiration. a friend had told me about canva, a website she used frequently so i decided to give it a try. while it doesn’t offer a community like polyvore, canva has all the design allure and then some! whatever your purpose for creating may be; social media, campaigns, presentations, i mean it when i say it… canva has it ALL. i created this mood board using canva because summer is upon us and i’m having a moment with all things made of straw. sue me.

THINK PINK.

well, i never thought in a million years that i would be writing this but here it is… i love pink and i don’t care who knows it! i never found the color to be all that appealing, mainly because i associated it with prissy girls who like glitter and fuzzy feather pens. for the past couple of weeks this color has been stalking me, forcing it’s way into my subconscious. this color has presented itself to me in a way that is making me re-think pink. i’m starting to see the mature side, the blush rather than the hot pink, the sophisticated art student vs. the preppy prom queen. however you want to look at it, pink has arrived and it has my heart.

 

P.S. be sure to check out the band wedding dress, not just because their album cover works with this color scheme but because they’re really good.
