While by nature, I tend to gravitate towards more neutral colors (you can find a lot of navy, white, tan and black in my closet) I also appreciate a pop of good color. And lately, surrounded by vibrant color in nature, architecture, and nearly everywhere else I look in Southern California, I’ve begun to live life a bit more colorfully…
I’m not saying you have to paint every wall in your home, or wear it head to toe, but I promise just throwing in an extra dash of color will absolutely brighten your day. All those color studies can’t be wrong. Here, a few affordable ways to live colorfully.
Nest: These small appetizer plates from CB2 are just the thing to liven up your usual place settings or make a small get together feel festive. At $2.95 each I’d keep a few in the cabinet to grab whenever you want to add a little spice to your kitchen.
Dressed: This statement necklace from Forever21 feels bold if you’re used to more subtle jewelry, but accessories like these are popular this Spring/Summer for good reason – they are the one minute fix to every boring outfit predicament you ever find yourself in. Tossed on with jeans and a faded t-shirt your look is suddenly elevated to model off duty cool, and paired with a floral date night dress you’re bound to leave a lasting impression.
The Rest: Live Colorfully is the tag line for Kate Spade, so it’s no surprise that it’s recently launched sister line ‘Saturday’ lives by the same mantra. I don’t have an iPad, but if I did, I’d stow it away in this fun case with a painterly print. And then keep the both of them inside of a brightly colored purse. Because, why not?
