on my desk: peach and turquoise

A wee collection of what is inspiring me at the moment. Can you tell I am ready for spring? My fave item? The floral paper tape by Martha Stewart. Isn't it sweet?

colour inspiration: Kate Spade Spring 2012

My weekend was spent in London (Chelsea, darling!) with my style guru, Candace (also American by birth, British by choice!). We did a spot of shopping, had an amazing lunch at Les Duex Salon and flirted with adventure. We popped into Kate Spade for a session of fashion drooling and oh.my.colour. Major inspiration. Adore the collaborative collection with Florence Broadhurst.

The eye-catching pops or pinks and oranges were amazing in the spring collection yet the blues and greens really stuck in my mind. During the wedding planning process so many brides opt for a more natural or soft array of colours (which we love, of course!) Navy is definately a colour that would be a great focus point. It can be coupled with rustic gold, purple, and white. It would make for a refreshing palette. *ahem, inspiration below*

a most definate 'yes!' to the shoes... oh, the shoes...
