Autumn Light

Shirt:  H&M  |  Pants:  Naked & Famous  |  Bag: Hermes Birkin  |  Jewelry:  Ily Couture, CC Skye

Sweater:  H&M  |  Neon Yellow Pants:  Zara  |  Bag:  Alexander Wang  |  Flats:  Tory Burch

It is getting colder outside but don't put all your summer pieces into storage just yet.  You should still wear your bright colors into the fall.  While an all black outfit is sophisticated and classic don't be afraid to change it up by adding a pop of bright color to your look!

Colo{ur} My Door!

Turn your boring front door (+garage doors) into a bright and welcoming entrance to your home just by applying a new color paint!  But don't stop there....replacing old hardware (house numbers, lock-set, mailbox, knocker) is a great way to really make the doors look brand new!  Do make sure all the new hardware is the same finish i.e. all hardware is brushed nickle.  If your door is flat you can also add trim painted and placed in an unique design.  By redesigning your front door your homes curb appeal shoots up with very little effort!

Super Studs

Happy Autumn!

The first day of Autumn is here and I wanted to share a trend that is really big for this season --- STUDS!  I started to wear the stud trend when I got my Alexander Wang Rocco Satchel (seen above) last winter.  Lately studs are popping up everywhere from bags to shoes to jackets and even sweaters.  I do really like this trend but in small doses.  Try not to go over board with all your studded pieces in one outfit.

 Coulo(ur) my life with the colour of decor!

My new favorite color trend is combining neutrals such as cool blues and grays with pops of vibrant varieties of yellow and violet!  This trend can be accomplished using any complimentary or triadic colors, not just gray, violet and yellow.  For help with creating the perfect color scheme this site is extremely useful: http://colorschemedesigner.com/

Enjoy creating and applying your favorite color scheme to enhance your living spaces, gardening project or even your outfit for the day!

Hi.




am soo excited to finally have my blog up and running in the grand ol’ US of A.  I am an interior and product designer who had been living, working, travelling, and journaling my experience in Asia for the past two years.  I have recently moved back to America to start a life here.  Surprisingly, it has been almost equally as challenging to readjust to life here as it was to adapt to living on the other side of the world.  Colo{ur}  My  Life is to share my experiences and all things that I find to be visually + spiritually amazing in design, architecture, fashion, art, travel, food, pop culture, beauty, photography, and more...enjoy!
