I almost forgot about the impending Valentine’s day — but remembered some amazing imagery that is perfect for a quick mid-winter jolt of color to snap us out of whatever mother nature is sending our way these days. Ta da! Here: a gorgeous assembly or poppy red, electric orange, and tones in between together as an inspiration board of sorts. This kind of palette is a refreshing change to those soothing pastels and neutrals we work a lot with, not to mention show that “Valentine’s Day Inspiration” doesn’t have to be all red or pink. That orange is calling my name, and I blame those sari fabrics.

May you all have a lovely [& electric] week!
