Like WHOA.  You guys, I’m sitting in my chair, with Bambino wanting ups, me ignoring his repeated requests for ups, and Bambino releasing aggressive fart bombs immediately beneath me in retribution.  Why am I unable to enjoy his sweet, adorable overtures?  Because I’m still in awe over what just happened.  And that’s saying A LOT, [...]

During a sweet little stroll through Style Me Pretty‘s Style Circle, I found what my little brother commonly refers to as “really ridiculous.” Roughly translated from guyspeak, really ridiculous is defined as anything that is overwhelmingly beautiful and/or ornate… almost over the top, but not… just perfectly stunning to the fullest.  Ok, that’s my best [...]

In lust with this cheery board created by Crystal Cook, a Style Circle member on Style Me Pretty.  The balloons were what caught my eye, but I stuck around for the desserts, mini pinwheels and general Summertime appeal!  Seriously, how lovely is this?!! The weather here in NY today is fanfreakintastic.  I made sure to [...]

While combing flickr for some stellar inspiration, I lucked into finding this brilliant set of photographs by flag75*, each one more colorful and intriguing than the next.  They remind me of that game segment from one of those late night talk shows – the name of which I can’t recall at the moment – that [...]

I came upon these trade cards during a search for inspiration, particularly that of a German bent.  You’ll notice they advertise Hoyt’s German Cologne.  The only thing German about the product is its name; nonetheless, the inherent beauty of the art overwhelmed me and thus I had to share. Here, a mix of good teeth [...]

They’re staring at that horizon for a reason… Thing is, I’m not a bird, so I’d be lying if I claimed to know why.  What I can tell you is why I would fix my eyes on that view: To me, a sunset horizon is peaceful and soothing to the soul.  Its colors are awe-inspiring; [...]

During one of my sojourns in the land of Etsy,  I stumbled upon a bounty of colorific creations being sold by paintallnightstudios, a darling little paint shop.  The images below, painted by Robert David Bretz, are a just a handful of the many lovely works of art I found to be so inspiring that I [...]

About a year ago, as we were walking the streets of lower Manhattan on our way to lunch, future hubby drew my attention to a brand new residential high-rise on our left.  It was a very modern structure, and only two colors coated its walls, which were made entirely of brick.  The colors?  Grey and [...]

I’ve got inspiration coming out of my ears, today.  But it’s all landing safely onto the pages of this blog, so no messy cleanup required… and, in my opinion, it just keeps getting better (if I do say so myself!).  I happen to obsess over the colors… er, color… in this next board. By the [...]

Really loving on yellow, today.  Can you tell?  :) Below, I brought together a few different shades of yellow; sorbet, gold and buttercream (mmm… it just melts off the tongue when you say that out loud).  Against the browns of a paper lunch bag, serving tray or card stock, any of these yellow shades will [...]

The seasons are changing.  It’s dreary, grey and a bit bare outside today, with yellowed leaves snapping off their trees and coasting on the brisk winds that took them.  It begs the question here at tKB: sad, cold day… or uniquely inspiring color palette?  The latter, of course! I worked up the below after some [...]
