Blue and Yellow Obesession

I’m more than a little obsessed with blue and yellow right now.

And I mean all shades of blue and all shades of yellow.

Usually when I get like this about a color combination, it’s a specific shade of each color but not this time.

I love the whole range from baby blue to navy …..

to turquoise to ink …..

from lemon yellow to butterscotch ….. all of them!

And of course I can’t leave out what has been my favorite room for at least half a year now:

Light blue Chesterfield and yellow Louis XVI’s.  I mean really. How could you get any better?

Blue & Yellow

My love affair with blue and yellow continues from yesterday.

I’ve posted about blue and yellow before here and here and here are some more rooms that get this combination right.

I like the super saturated colors in all these rooms . . .

but also the more toned down version like here:

I love everything about this entry – great chest, chair, mirror, purple rug – and look at the front door!

The Blues

I mentioned yesterday how crazy I am for blue right now. For some reason, I’ve never used it in any of my homes.

I’m not sure why because it’s a color I’ve always liked. I mean, who doesn’t like blue?

I guess there were just other colors I liked more.

But lately, blue is at the top of my love list.

Pink & Blue

My current favorite color combination comes as a huge surprise to me: pink & blue. I can’t get enough of it!

And I’m liking almost any variation of pink or blue.

But hot fuscha and a deep inky blue is probably the one I love most. I nearly died when I saw this room from the latest Elle Decor:

Thanks to Monika for scanning this. I’m in love with this whole house BTW. If you haven’t seen it yet, you must! Seriously swoon-worthy!

Feeling A Little Blue

lilidiallo

Not to worry, I mean I’m feeling blue, literally. In addition to the blue and white stripes that I mentioned earlier in the week, I find myself liking just a splash of blue here and there.

Especially when it’s paired with yellow or red. It’s a primary thing, I guess.

Do have a favorite shade of blue?

I don’t know about you but I am so looking forward to some down time this weekend!  Our guests are gone, I finished a major work project and my dog seems to be doing better (he got really sick on Wednesday but he should be jut fine). So there’s going to be some serious R&R around our house the next couple of days. Hope you have a great weekend. I’ll see you Monday!

Today’s Crush: Blue & White Striped Linens

I haven’t used any blue in the home in over 10 years. I don’t know why but I just haven’t been that interested in it. Until now.

I’m loving all of this blue and white striped bedding.

I think some blue and white stripes will definitely make its way into the cabin in some form or another!

Do you have any blue in your house?

Also, could you let me know if you’ve been having any problems viewing my blog or if it seems to be loading slower than before? And if so, can you tell me what browser you use? Thanks so much!
