MOOD BOARD

This time of year I call my brown period. It's that awkward time between winter and not yet spring, everything still feels a little dead, soggy.muddy and brown, and the winter doldrums continue. Of course then we get teased with some beautiful days from mother nature like today for instance.even with warm temps and sun...its still winter. Sort of a blah feeling. But I actually adore the color brown especially in my wardrobe and in my home. In my old pied de terre, I used to be famous for my dark chocolate brown bedroom. The walls looked so rich.Some of you may recall that from my earlier posts, before my new color went to dark navy blue.I adore the brown spectrum, brown's,camels, tans, taupes creams. And you'll notice lions. I used to have fantasies of having a pet lion or bear....and lying back in their mane or fur. How decadent would that be???Of course I also enjoy others bears....and nothing wrong with a side of hot chocolate either....Smooth...dark hot chocolate girls.

 
And when I get up and open the drapes and find it's Monday again???
Soooo me.

    I too love brown, and I love the little nod to Iris Aprel, again. Your weekend post memorial to her was very nice. What a woman.

  10. LOVE! I'm a huge fan of brown and hues of brown for interiors too. And could you even imagine lying back in a lion's mane?!?!? That would be awesome. I love lions! Lions always looks so expressive, wise and calm...hard to believe how ferocious they are. Of course, I also like big black anacondas.

  11. I like that idea of a brown bedroom. Would be a good way for me to hide in plain sight. Love the Iris Apfel farewell.

  12. Aww Iris!
    She was iconic.
    And Brown is quite the color. It's tricky and if not used well, it can overwhelm but there's few colors as warm and as inviting.
    I like both dark and white chocolate. Maybe I just like chocolate?

    XOXO
