viva mexico!

I have sadly been so distant from my blog lately-- blame it on the big move, too much rain, and now travel. We are about to be off on a little adventure to Mexico City. I look forward to it since I've never been and am excited to explore the street markets and museums. I have a vision in my mind that everything will be very bright and beautiful. I'll be sure to share photos upon our return next week, but until then here's my mexico inspiration. Photos (top to bottom): Colorful womenswear from here. mexico city photo. pop-poms from here. frida-esque styling from small magazine.

mellow yellow

We have been in the process of painting our bedroom a lovely shade of yellow plus a grey accent wall. And to our surprise when removing an ugly wallpaper, we discovered a gorgeous vintage pattern underneath, a perfect floral in shades of yellow and grey. So we are also keeping one patterned wall while doing a light yellow wash over the paper. All still a work in progress, but am getting excited to have the bedroom complete. I have found these inspirational photos to go with the colorful visions in my head. Photos (top to bottom): Heavenly headboard photo from here, Vintage rotary phone available at Anthropologie, Yellow dress photo from here, and Stick on lettering by Harmonie-intérieure.

little by little

One box at a time, I am steadily getting our house and everything in order. Still more work to be done. Happy weekend (of unpacking)!
