seeing green

not only is emerald green the pantone color of the year, it also happens to be one of my favorites! green is always so vibrant and fresh, no matter what you put it on, be it clothing or home decor. it inspires a feeling that seems to just make everything look better and feel good. it also reminds me that spring is upon us, when i start to grow dreary of the cold weather and covered up wardrobe. emerald green was  my fathers favorite color. maybe there is some sentiment involved, it always reminds me of him.

a curation of pretty images seen in green….

a new year and a fresh space


Starting off the new year right means having an organized working space. One where you can feel constantly inspired and motivated on a daily basis. Surrounded by the things you love, be it your favorite art work, books, stationary, reminders, or just a pretty bouquet of your first pick of flowers.

It also helps if that space is a pretty one, so here are a few desk and office accessories that I fancy…




Oh! And I think everyone should own a vintage letter opener, just my two sense!

There is always something so pretty about pink, polka dots and flowers. Girly yes, but that is just fine by me.

For the Love of Green!

Hey there,

Green is one of those colors that just makes you feel all happy inside when you look at it, sort of like yellow and red do too. Such a versatile color, that can be used in every season and beautiful in so many different shades, from kelly green to mint green.

So put your green colored glasses on, and take a look at some visions in green that make me happy!
