{Fashion Friday: Turquoise & Tangerine}

Nate Burkus believes the best way to create a color palette for your home is to take inspiration from your closet. I whole heartedly agree that the colors you find yourself wearing regularly will most likely be the same as those you're comfortable decorating your home with. 

To create a color palette that is distinctively your own, ask yourself what accessories you gravitate towards. Are they bold, trendy statement pieces or quieter, more traditional pieces?  Do you wear bright colors and pattern more often or do you play it safe with neutrals? Your answers to these questions can help you to create a stunning palette that is uniquely your own. 

Below, you will find an outfit that I love translated into a living room…
