Pinning This Week: Cacti

Pinterest is my favorite place to notice and compile themes or trends that are catching my eye. So I thought I would share my favorites here. This week it's all about cacti, my favorite house plant because it requires so little attention and can grow in such visually interesting patterns and colors. See more examples here.

Color Combo: Browns & Blues

Today in the Bay Area it feels like summer with temperatures in the low 70's but to capture a little of that wintery feeling I've decided to do a post on blues and browns which always feel kind've cool and desolate to me, just like winter. I also just love this combination, it's so earthy and calming, like dirt and sky, very elemental. 

Chinti & Parker Fall 2011

I love the classic knits with a whimsical twist from Chinti & Parker's Fall line. Perfect for a fall day outside. I also love this brand because they are committed to being ethical and carbon neutral, hurray!

How perfect is this scene? So blue, and sunny and warm water. This is exactly where I wish I could be every single day. via I Art U.
