color scoop three: radiant orchid.

While moving the first of my things to my new place this weekend, I came across the shoes that were this week's color scoop inspiration. I got them last year from White House Black Market but haven't had a chance to wear them yet. And lucky me, they happen to be 2014's Pantone Color of the Year!

shop this scoop:
1. Dip Dye Scarf // 2. Zoya Nail Polish in Stevie  3. Purple Bling iPhone Case // 4. Keurig Mini Brewer // 5. Lace Slip // 6. Assorted Throw Pillows // 7. Alexis Bittar Deco Arrowhead Earrings // 8. Hand Woven Rug // 9. Dot Glasses (set of 6)

I think an orchid plant for the condo is in order! Head over to your local florist or garden center to grab one for yourself. They're not as hard to take care of as everyone thinks, and they're so worth the wait.

color scoop one.

I love color. And design. And shopping. So when I was brainstorming about what kind of weekly blog post I wanted to start, of course it made sense to try and include all of these things. Mission accomplished. 

It's February 1st, and red is just the pick-me-up needed to add a little vibrancy to the middle of winter. Plus, Valentine's Day is coming! 

Shop this scoop:
1. lattice serving tray from target. // 2. bkr water bottle. // 3. stolen sunday infinity scarf. // 4. moroccan pomegranate red tea from celestial seasonings. // 5. le creuset heart casserole. // 6. kate spade new york "be dazzling" candle. // 7. dishtowels from Crate & Barrel. // 8. sequin red and gold enamel bangle. 
inspiration: the scallop and bandage details on this dress are everything.
