Looking back recently, it dawned on me that it’s been a bit since shades of purple have come out to play in a color palette. Then this perfectly plum and mint pairing from Wendy’s Lookbook stumbled across my path and I decided these soft pastel colors, reminiscent of sweet summery gelato, were all kinds of lovely together. …
Purple wedding
Good morning and happy Monday, friends! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I am battling an awful cold today that crept up on me over the weekend so I am sipping on lots of tea this morning and trying to ease into the week. Speaking of easing into the week, how about a gorgeous …
Good morning, friends! I hope everyone had a great day off yesterday. We’re kicking the morning off today with the prettiest color palette. Lately it has been all about fresh, summery colors so I thought I’d mix it up a bit. So today we’re talking classic and utterly romantic shades of lavender and rose. It …
I’ve always loved deep, rich shades of purple, plum and berry. In high school I painted my room the deepest shade of jewel-toned purple/gray and was so sad to see it go when my mother later moved. Today’s color palette is all about those same gorgeous colors. This is perfect for an outdoor reception under …

Continuing my little girl love affair with all things pink and purple, I’m coocoo for Cocoa Puffs over the pretty details of this wedding.

If you’re like me and love pink and purple, but don’t tend to daydream in bubble gum and unicorns, this color palette is for you! It’s all about soft, dreamy shades of blush and papaya with the loveliest hint of purple. Think pretty lavender and lilac and pinks that are completely sophisticated. It’s super girly, …
For today’s color palette I was really inspired by a color that I personally find somewhat daunting – purple! I think it’s so easy for purple to go wrong so I wanted to show it off in a really romantic, sophisticated way. I think the trick with purple is keeping the colors rich and moody, …
Jenna from Eat Drink Pretty emailed me to share this gorgeous dessert buffet she posted on her blog – it was created by Shauna Younge Dessert Tables and photographed by Sweet Shibui Photography. I love the color palette and all of the cute little details from the purple homemade marshmallows to the towers of macarons. …
With all of this talk of the holidays and winter, I got thinking about one of my favorite weddings that cropped up here and there in the blog world last year, that of Little Winter Bride. This wedding date backs to February 2008 and it may or may not have helped elevate both wedding cupcakes …
This is the last of the day’s fun inspiration board-style real weddings from the immensely talented Anne Ruthmann, a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Massachusetts. With a really pretty purple and blue color palette, I think my favorite part about this event are the bright purple port a potties. Yup. Color-coordinated bathroom facilities. Now …

I immediately found myself in …
