Embracing Color

October 31, 2016 by Kate 1 Comment

Every year around Halloween, I buy a colorful wig for some costume-y fun and prepare to revel in vivid hues. And every year as I pack away the wig, I tell myself I’m going to find ways to celebrate color on a daily basis well past Halloween. That can be challenging, especially as fall and winter hues become more subdued, mirroring the cold, grey weather outside.

Speaking of challenges, here’s one for all of us: more color. In our lives. In our wardrobes. In our homes. Just for fun. Just because it makes us happy. Just because it makes us take a second look.

Start at home. Whether the color comes from a vivid vase, a bright accent wall, or both, sometimes the simplest of additions can make the biggest of differences. You can always break up the tone-on-tone radiance with a houseplant or two.

Be ready! Without a doubt, the color will infiltrate a variety of areas in your life. Happy Halloween!!!  XOXO, Kate
