{#201} autumn warmth

 As winter is begin to slowly approach, I'm trying my hardest to soak in as much autumn goodness as I can. I'm still not ready to let go of my warm caramels and cozy browns just yet. Today's inspiration board has all of my favorite things...a gorgeous palette, delicious treats and leaves me with a wonderful sense of warmth.

{#200} rustic brown + lavender

Whoa! I can't believe that today I'll share with you my 200th inspiration board. It's inevitable that brown is the heavyweight champ for the number one spot in autumn palettes. Sure, it can be used year round but it just feels right this time of year. Paired with soft lavender and pretty details makes this one of my favorite boards to date.

{#199} turquoise + copper

I can't speak for everyone but I can't get enough of rustic weddings but sometime I like a more refined look. Adding a little spark and shine brings this autumn inspiration board to another level.

{#198} fuchsia + white pumpkin

 

Gah! It's my first i-board in quite a while and I'm extremely nervous to hear your thoughts about it. I couldn't resist creating a board when I came across that oh so cute hollowed out white pumpkin centerpiece. The color palette is dramatic and modern and perfectly unexpected for an autumn wedding.  

Happy Halloween, friends!

{#196} a little bit of sunshine

Happy Monday, friends! How was your weekend? Today the weather is expected to reach 90 degrees! Huh? What the heck happened to Spring? I really hope it doesn't last because nothing beats a cool and comfortable 70 degrees. But I guess it's better than being knee deep in snow. So I'll make the most of it with the pretty board that fills my computer screen with sunshine.

{#195} spring is here

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure to guest blog on my friend Megan's blog Glamour and Grace and shared this spring inspired wedding board.  I love this sweet palette of pretty pinks and greens...the colors  are lighter, brighter and oh so cheerful.

{#194} spring green

Lately, I've been craving spring so badly...the blooming trees, the perfect weather oh I love it so much! I also love creating bright spring inspired boards. This board has me dreaming of a sun filled garden wedding with a refreshing color palette of emerald and aqua.

{#193} classic french blue

Happy Monday!! Sorry for the late post but I was having such a hard time finishing up this inspiration board.  I wanted to create something classic but with some vintage touches.  I just adore that veiled pill hat and paired with classic pearls is a look that will never go out of style.

{#192} la dolce vita

Happy Tuesday all! I hope you're having a fabulous day. I had a wonderful dinner with friends this weekend and spent most time oh-ing and ah-ing over their Italian vacation photos.  I'll admit I was super jealous but it did inspire me to create this board.

{pretty palette} lavender + stone

I had the great pleasure to guest blog over at Love & Lavender last week and I shared with Aileen + Ellen's readers this soft palette of lavender and stone.  Everything from the dried lavender bouquet to that gorgeous calligraphy makes for one romantic wedding.

{#190} bee mine

I created this board last year for Megan of {Forget me Knot Weddings} and it still is one of favorites. I wanted to create something that still remained true to Valentine's Day but with a little twist.  Love its clean and modern color palette of yellow, cream and taupe.  These bright and cheerful colors also reminds me that Spring is just around the corner.
