Creams&Browns/Warm Neutrals: Color Post

I'm usually more of a bright color kinda person, but seeing some of these neutral photos just made me feel so cozy I had to make a post! Sometimes a collection of colors can just make you feel good. I want to do a few posts that revolve around that idea. It's a little different than my other posts but I like to give some spice and variety to my blog :)


All images found on tumblr...I apologize for not having the original sources! One thing I don't like about Tumblr.























Don't you just feel all warm and fuzzy inside??

And just to keep up with my actual finds of the day, I found some lovely etsy items in these browns and creams that I think you will just love. Heres my Browns and Creams Etsy Treasury!

Hey Hey USA Stars and Stripes Trend!

So a very recent trend within the fashion and handmade community is good old patriotism! Been seeing a multitude of stars and stripes which is totally appropriate because the 4th of July is drawing near. Also some people just love the USA and gotta rock that red, white, and blue. Here are some pretty cool flag friendly finds!


Really considered buying this, but I'm cheap and will probably just DIY one soon!



















Will you be flaunting the Stars and Stripes anytime soon??

Til Next Time! xodani
