Inspiring Me Now- Blue

 I’ve been in the winter schlump lately. We have had positively amazing weather here, so I have no excuse. I’m just in a rut. Do you ever get like that? I’ve been spending a fair amount of time contemplating what to do in the house for spring. Frankly, I’d like to chuck it all and start new. Reality though has prevailed and it looks like that means a few new throw pillows and paint. I need to get busy with a project, which usually pulls me out of these things.

I’m obsessed with this photo I ran across last week of Carolina Herrera Baez at her home! I have also been seeing an onslaught of blue lately in catalogs, stores and Pinterest. It seems the whole world is ready to embrace blue as the color of spring. I think I’m on board with that. Already the mosaic swim suits and blue-patterned dresses are getting me excited for a change of weather and state of mind. Hey a few blue throw pillows might help until our next holiday…

 I’m crazy for these Tory Burch swimsuits!

Tory got the blue memo. She has so many blue things to fall in love with right now.

This adorable cover-up too.

Perhaps a trip to Portugal? Did you know how they have darling streetcars?

 This shade is really so luxe. I wonder if you’d grow tired of a blue kitchen?

This month’s House Beautiful was chock full of blue.

 This home (both pics above), designed by Miles Redd was especially fabulous and inspiring!

Indigo is a memoir combining a woman’s search for her identity and a research into the origins of Indigo.

I’d love to read this! Has anyone else?

Perfect indigo on this coat!

Beautiful collection from Art & Inspiration. Original post here.

Spring is just a few weeks away. Hang in there pals in the snowy climes!

We can do this!

 (How boring am I right now? I can’t stop thinking about the next episode of Downton Abbey. I don’t know how we could make it through January without it!! )
