Pantone's Spring 2014 Color Report


What do you think of Pantone's Spring 2014 Fashion Color Report?! I'll be sorry to see 2013's Emerald go. (Although I don't think it will be disappearing anytime soon.) As far as Radiant Orchid goes, it's actually a color I've never decorated with. Ever. I wear it a lot though because I like how it complements reddish / auburn hair and green eyes.

I like the Freesia and Celosia Orange that are featured in both the women's and men's report. The Paloma grey and Sand are both nice neutrals. Also, I find myself more drawn to the men's palette for the Comfrey, Magenta Purple, and Purple Haze. I like those deeper hues better than pastels.

My favorite color from the palettes? Cayenne! It's like a spicy shade of coral. Love, love, love it.

What are your likes, dislikes, and favorites? Are you more smitten with the men's palette or the women's? I love talking color! :)

DIY Cat Barrier for Under $100 (See-Through, Climb-Proof, and Too-Tall-To-Jump)

ICYMI: I gave up Cotton after deciding that after trying so many things, my two adopted cats Dahlia and Cotton were just never going to get along. Long story short: I missed her. And Cotton's back. And Dahlia's not going anywhere. My heart is big enough to keep trying. And my apartment is big enough that if I need to keep them separated long term (or permanently), it can be done.
I'm going to write-up a separate post about some of the solutions I've tried, how they worked, who they worked on, and what I'll be trying next. But in this post, I wanted to share the main 'piece de resistance' of having both cats in my apartment: an un-climbable, un-jumpable, see-through barrier to separate Cotton and Dahlia.

Blair's Room | Gossip Girl Decor

Manhattan's debutante Blair Waldorf happens to be my favorite Gossip Girl character.  Her behavior and feelings vary from snobbish to sensitive, but she always (except for a few rare occasions) looks and acts totally pulled together.  Her luxurious bedroom is fit for a queen---and is as pulled together as her preppy fashion ensembles.
