Sugar, Lace & Lavender

Currently loving anything with dainty, laser-cut and intricate details…

Clockwise from top left:  (1) That’s the prettiest little lace underthingy I’ve ever seen.  But if that chick isn’t careful, she’s gonna show everybody her petunia. (2) That iPhone case reminds me of a snowflake.  And it’s leather – rawr. (3) Now they make umbrellas for umbrella drinks that look like pink doilies?! Genius. (4) Those are the most gorgeous antique milk glass sconces I’ve EV-AH seen.

Also LOVING every shade of the lilac rainbow these days.  Especially when you pepper it with some sugary sweet shades of apricot, charcoal, and that muted, cloudy, minty-blue hue.  PS:  Do you think that ice cream tastes like lavender?!

If that color palette fills your soul with sugarplums and gumdrops like it does mine, but you’re hesitant about using pastels anywhere outside your 5-year old’s room, take a cue from the photos above:  saccharin shades instantly become chic and sophisticated in big kid rooms when you layer ’em with earth tones, or anchor them with black.

Happy Tuesday!
