Wedding Ideas - Board #3

And we're back - I couldn't let Monday go by without some inspiration board loveliness, could I? :) Today's combo has been my new little colour crush for a few weeks now, because seriously, how amazing do grey and navy look together? It's so chic.

I have to say, I'm having fun with the inspiration boards this month, reinventing the travel theme for current trends and styles. Today's is no exception. For this one, I was inspired by the idea of a watercolour travel journal, which immediately made me think of this amazing stationery suite, and that made me think of sunny days in the beautiful Italian countryside.

Good lord, how is it Monday again already? And how is it NOVEMBER? There's only one way to deal with my standard end-of-year panic that time has almost slipped by me today, and that's with some wedding pretty. I must say, I am loving today's combination.

Welcome back, lovelies! I hope you're ready for a gorgeous new week. I'll be spending the first few days of it away from my computer for once, enjoying some relaxing mom and daughter spa time in the Drakensberg. As I write this, I can't wait - feel free to be made jealous by following me on Instagram.

Morning lovelies! Time to greet another week, and there's no better way to do that than with an inspiration board, right? If you've been following for any amount of time you'll probably know by now that I just love olive leaves as wedding decoration.

I wasn't even sure you all would have an inspiration board this week, what with Eskom and Telkom conspiring to make my weekend extra frustrating but I have to say, I am loving this board!

Pineapples are everywhere at the moment (yay!) and I've been wanting to do a pineapple-themed board for a while. Which might sound weird, because wouldn't a pineapple-themed wedding be all Carmen Miranda? But no, in fact, we're talking pineapples as a motif rather than a theme, and we're loving how they add a touch of the tropics while still being an elegant and interesting form.

Raise your hand if you like a quick and easy DIY project! I'm assuming your hand is in the air right now. Don't worry, no one is watching you. Great! Because today I'm sharing a super quick and easy project with you- a DIY state cork board.

Okay okay, I said I'd never do another Marsala inspiration board, but as we bid farewell to 2015's colour of the year and welcome a seriously exciting new pair (more on that in January), I thought I'd look back on it just one last time, since it does, after all, offer a fresh spin on Christmas red.

Is it too early in the morning for champagne? Ha, don't be silly. It's NEVER too early for champagne. Of course, this is the kind of champagne that won't get you into trouble with your boss, the latest in our inspiration boards designed for wine varieties (see Rosé & Merlot if you missed them) in honour of our vineyard wedding month.

Happy Monday, friends! Did you catch my little blogiversary post over the weekend? Well since our blog birthday got me thinking all things commemorative, I've decided to do a running series of inspiration boards inspired by birthstones, starting today. Although I almost canned that idea when I saw that the stone for May was emerald, ...

Morning loves! It's inspiration board Monday, and as promised, I have another board mixing and matching the colours from Pantone's Spring 2015 palette. Recently I have been loving pinks and blues together, and this is such a fresh way of doing it - a bright blue a few shades up from navy, a sweet rosy pink and another, softer, blue (as well as a few softer shades of pink and lots of white).

Cambiamo completamente ispirazione rispetto all'ultima board innevata: quella di oggi è ispirata al mare e in particolare ai piccoli pezzi di vetro smussati dalle onde. Sono loro infatti lo spunto per questa palette, freschissima ed estiva, composta da varie tonalità di acquamarina.

What would a month dedicated to spring pastels be without some spring pastels colour board inspiration? I never get tired of multicolour pastels, personally, because they always just look so darn PRETTY lined up together, and so fresh (which of course, is what makes them perfect for spring).

Some boards take me a while to put together, but some are so clear in my mind, it's as if they've always existed. In fact, I had to go back and check my archives to be sure I hadn't done this one before, because the concept of proteas + gold glitter is already such a ...

Hello lovelies! We started our Monday with winter whites, but now it's time to add some colour to your afternoon. Specifically, pastels, because we LOVE pastels, don't we?

This month, we're inspired by everything winelands (which yes, I am totally taking as an excuse to drink more wine). So I thought it might be fun to create some inspiration boards with a bit of a wine theme to them, in a totally stylish and non-cheesy way of course!

Happy Monday, lovelies! When I was thinking about inspiration boards for travel month, I went through a bunch of different ideas (I have some destination-tastic boards that I'm dying to put together!) But in the end, I decided it was a great opportunity to showcase a few general travel-related themes that were very fresh and beautiful.

Con la stagione delle feste in arrivo sono più attratta del solito da glitter e colori metallici. Per l'inspiration board di questa settimana ho scelto l'oro rosa, così chic e femminile, romantico e moderno allo stesso tempo. Sarebbe perfetto per un matrimonio il giorno di San Silvestro!
