Fashion Inspiration: Camel Tones

One of my favorite trends in color for Spring 2011 RTW shows was the plethora of camel: a light-colored tint of brown that translates beautifully in the home as well.  I've gathered some of my favorite accessories and furniture in my new favorite color: camel.

Chic, Small Spaces

Recently, I've been looking to move into a studio intown.  They're typically cheaper, but much smaller (duh), but I think that smallness forces you to be more creative with your space.  Here are some of my favorite chic, small spaces.  Enjoy!

Flickr Finds: Pastels

I've never been a fan of pastel anything.  Nothing pastel or pale looks good against my skin and so I've never been drawn to it in my home either.  There's a lot of blacks, whites and highly saturated blues and yellows, but nothing pale or pastel.  But...I will say this.  This pastel color combos found courtesy of Flickr are really gorgeous.  I mean, they're mostly lovely enough to make me consider a pale teacup at least.  So how do you guys feel about pastels?  Yay or nay?
