colors : jcrew

When I envision what our house will look like once we are done rejuvenating it, say in 5 years...ok, maybe 10...I always think about it relative to its simple Cape Cod form on the outside and how I can invoke a casual, beachy and classic feel to the inside.  I have long looked to the muted colors of Mud's gorgeous ceramics for color inspiration.  But lately (and really since the second half of last year) the Jcrew catalog has been an unexpected source of ideas and it's really buzzing around the blogosphere lately.  This is my favorite image of the current catalog.  Pastels are not what they once were and pastels paired with black...ohh.  Love.  Ohh.  The possibilities.

That reminds me of those domino mag (*sigh*) features: "Could This Catalog Page Be a Room?" I'd love to see what you'd do with these colors, or anything else to do with your home rejuvenating projects (because that's what I'm trying to work on, and I could always use inspiration).

The very same page caught my eye. Those colors are fabulous paired together.

Trish, sometime I will show you the color palettes I have pulled together. In the meantime you can sneak a peek at my inspiration binders here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/happylivingdesign/sets/72157613234164384/.
