Color: Chartreuse

In fashion - its known as Neon Green. In the color world it's Chartreuse, a bright-bold statement color that many may fear cannot be pulled off - especially in the home. Here are some fine examples of how you can add a vibrant splash without looking like you just stepped into a Key Lime Pie.

If you are an avid follower of mine - you might be noticing how completely inthralled I am lately with Home Decor and Interior Design - its all I seem to blog about! Please excuse me if that bothers you and you came here looking for Fashion - fashion will be back, I just have noticed I've caught a little decor bug that makes me every free moment go into redecorating my home in some way and collecting ideas to do so. Maybe its the change in seasons?


Here is a fun way to spice up the dining room - no need to paint a whole wall! Just get some funky chairs! 

Another piece of furniture that is totally modernized with this bright hue.

Ok here is someone that went to extreme and threw it on the walls - how daring! It paid off though - I love it! Sorry for the blurred picture- I blew it up to show you, but its really, really tiny in actuality. 

That bed !! Swoon! 

Ok this is a blogger I recently stumbled upon and she did a re-do of her lamp here - before it was the typical silver floor lamp and she decided to spray paint it using Krylon's Ivy Leaf. It turned out great, don't you think? A nice pop.


Love me some colored front doors.

Not a wall - but the back of a bookshelf? I love it - my favorite use of the color out of it all in a home. I will promise you - one way or another -I will do this in my home. It may be in a child's room - but it is happening.

New Job & My Office Look!



Hello All! How is everyone's week going? Mine is extra swell considering I just started a new job this week. I work for Axial Exchange - a company backed by the Mayo Clinic which provides hospitals with Patient Engagement solutions! Patient Engagement is a generally new term in the healthcare world - but its very, very important. Patient Engagement is the basic idea that healthcare should be based around the patient and providing that patient with every possible tool that they need to stay healthy! I am a new member of the sales team and I am so excited to learn more and settle in to what is turning out to be a really great company! 

Today was my third day on the job and I decided to once again revert to the old neon/neutral look that I apparently cannot get enough of! Anyway - This was an easy to wear look that added some brightness to my day! 








Thanks for reading and I'll see you tomorrow! For now, I am off to the dog park on this gorgeous spring (or summer!? 83 degrees?!) day!
