Color of the month:: Khaki

{GIVEAWAY REMINDER: Don't forget to visit yesterday's post here to enter my current giveaway!}

Okay so I've been on a bit of a khaki kick lately. I just love the way it makes everything look and feel so organic and natural! Its also great with most skin tones oddly enough, and even though its not a bright spring color and more of a fall, I choose to see it as the rustic color of nature at its best:) The bad thing is that when I get on a color kick and start seeing things I love everywhere, it can get very hard to get them out of my head! Lucky for me though, and for you I like to think *wink* I have my color of the month for June to share with you a few of those wonderful things that I just can't seem to let go of!

This week I found...

...this outfit combo. I just love the comfort feel of it all! Chambry, those sandels, even the bag looks comfy to carry.haha Yummy!!

via

...this set of three khaki variations nail polishes from the Chanel line Les Khakis De Chanel. Aren't they just gorgeous?

via

...this amazing laptop bag from anchor devision. I know i'm stretching it a bit with the khaki theme, but I think its totally hot.haha

via

...this recipe for Frozen Peanut Butter Pie. See, I knew there was another reason that I chose khaki for this month! Peanut butter is bassicaly the most amazing thing to me right now, but even if it wasn't, look at this pie!!

via

...this comfy comfy looking maxi skirt from etsy.com Can I say it again? Comfy!

via

...this bedroom. Oh how I adore the color in a bedroom! or anywhere in a house actually. Parlor, nursery, bathroom, you name it!

via

...these fun strappy heels from charlotte russe! I don't think I own a pair of heels that have so much detail in them, maybe its time to change that? haha

via

...this print of dresses from 1959. I love the part about the price being 'tiny', and the part that says 'Especially styled for your half-size figure':) bahaha!

via

...this Peanut butter Cream Pie from Tonya Staab. There's no recipe that I could see, but its sure a beauty to look at! (if you're crazy about peanut butter like me:)) Maybe its good there's no recipe...

via

...k so then I actually found a khaki bathroom...with a clawfoot tub. Yeah.

via

...these burlap retro family buttons from etsy. Love that the mom is kniotting and the daughter is washing the dishes! haha cute and fun don't you think?:)

via

Hope you've enjoyed the collection!! And that you've had a great morning so far. I'm off to the kitchen to make me some frozen peanut butter pie! Don't you even say a word:)

Friday Finds #16 (ala Mustard)

KA-CHOW I almost forget my color of the month post!! I'm sure you were really concerned, but since I spent almost a week last month wondering if I really had to wait for a new month to do the next color post (I love this color so much right now), I thought that I'd better git-r-done today! I decided that in the interest of space, and time, and the fact that my color of the month posts and my Friday Finds feature were similar, that maybe just this time I could mosh them up into one! 

This week I found...in the color of the month:)...

...this 'craving curry' skirt from Modcloth. Yum! the name only makes me want it all the more. and this dress... Maybe when I have a waistline again huh? haha

Color of the month:: Emerald

Happy Irish month! Phew, I almost forget about doing my color of the month! I remembered in the nick of time as you can see however, and seeing as how march is St. Patrick's month, I felt both a little obligated and pleased to present this month's color as Emerald Green! And what a fantastic color choice this turned out to be! I'm sure you will agree when you see this collection of images that I find both lovely and inspiring in the new color for this month. Enjoy! :
