FROM ROOM TO GROOM (plus more) - SEAFOAM DREAMS

Wednesday, July 13, 2011

When I started this blog I had a vision and lots ideas of what I wanted to do here. I have always loved all aspects of design and creativity and as much as I love fashion, interior design has been another passion of mine.


Does anyone remember the feature in Domino Magazine where they took a room and came up with an outfit inspired by it? (or vice versa...I can't remember). Well, to me that was just the ultimate in creativity and I am thrilled to do something like that here!


Theoretically, my idea was to post a picture of a beautiful room and then put together a 'look' inspired by it...but I must admit I got a little carried away here. Maybe it was the color scheme that just evokes this incredibly soothing feeling reminiscent of my all time favorite space: the sea; or my new found love of the incredible photo resource site, pinterest; but either way, enjoy these seafoam delights!


FROM ROOM...









(here is where I get carried away a bit)



Have you dared to try this dreamy color on your toes yet? Of course I have

...TO GROOM


A contrast of coral is another gorgeous compliment to seafoam
AND NOW SHOP THE LOOK:
Tibi Marble Print Silk Dress: $345, Nine West Sandals $99, Stephen Dweck Chandelier Earings $220, Nars shimmer eyeshadow in goldfinger $23, Straw bracelet tote $30.40, Running Water Crystal Ring $60
Note: To keep these looks modest, try a shell and/or pencil skirt for sleeves and length.  Double Header is a great source for such items and is linked on the top right of this blog.

Did you notice that throughout these photos a touch of golden yellow perfectly compliments this hue? Just like the blazing sun above the sea, the best color combos can be found just by observing nature. 

Have a gorgeous day!

  1. What a beautiful montage of one of my favorite colors. I think I have that very shade of Esse...or one very close to it. And I just happen to be getting a pedi today...you've inspired me to go sea foam!

  3. Foam green is such a fantastic colour. I remember first seeing it in a Martha Stewart magazine (she uses it a lot in her kitchens and kitchen products). Beautiful images here...
