Navy blue, I love you.

June 02, 2016

I wanted to take a short moment, to talk a little bit about my favorite color, navy blue. 

I feel like there are a lot of people who overlook navy. I'm hoping to change that for at least a person or two. Really it's black with more dimension. It's a colored neutral. It pairs well with every color, chartreuse, turquoise, cranberry red, sky blue, kelly green even black. Some people will try to tell you that you shouldn't put the two together. They are wrong. I don't know where that rule came from, but it's crazy. Some of my favorite outfits are a combination of black and navy. Speaking of outfits, navy blue is just as slimming as black. 

Anyway, I won't rant. I'm sure you need to get to thinking about navy blue and all the ways you're going to incorporate it into your home decor and street style... Navy blue you are an unsung hero of the design world and I would like to thank you.

Upstate Living

We ventured up this way from Brooklyn in 2016… I’ve never looked back. Loving the upstate life in the Hudson Valley. Mixing our style into our 1850’s farmhouse one room at a time.

I hope you’ll join us on our journey as we reinvigorate this gem of a home. While you’re here, take a peek at my vintage finds and handmade goods in the shop.

Finally winter has given way to spring and shortly it will be full blown summer. A vegetable garden has been something I’ve wanted to invest time in since we purchased our house upstate over 3 years ago. I hadn’t until this year, had the time to get things moving.
