NEW HOME

Plush Palate has been such a lovely place for me to build (I'll especially never forget this post and your comments that still move me today), but it's time to move. I hope you'll follow me at my new home where I'll continue to write about design and share my thoughts with you.

Love,
Crystal

IN THE BAG: JUMP INTO SPRING WITH THE PERFECT TOTE!

What an exciting day! Not only does the new issue of Rue go live (with new iPad capabilities!), we're also continuing our work with Gap on Styld-by - their fun new online catalog. Here are a few shots of yours truly from our latest shoot with the iconic brand!

You can never have enough bags, especially big bags. I've been known to carry far too much in mine, but what can I say, I'm a gal who likes to be prepared, which is why I love my new Gap tote!
Beyond its roomy size - perfect for a day at the beach or a shopping trip around town - I'm completely enamored with the neutral meets punchy color palette.
How do you incorporate your Gap favorites into your wardrobe? For more idea, check out the looks the other Rue gals, Cassie, Anne, and Bri, created!

UNEXPECTED COLOR: TURQUOISE

This weekend my friend Julia had me over to her place, which proved to be a total stunner! Stealing the show were her gorgeous turquoises walls in the living room, exuding spunk and class all at once. Just like Julia :)
With turquoise on the mind, I stumbled upon this gorgeous home that helps seals the deal of my new found love of the color. Take a look...



Tell me, would you ever use turquoise or an equally bold color in your home?

POWER COUPLE

One of my favorite couples photo shoots ever is this infamous Brangelina one in W Magazine. I'm using these as inspiration for a just for fun shoot my handsome guy and I will be doing with Woodnote Photography this weekend.

Do you have a favorite couples shoot?

TWO THINGS I'M LOVING

An inspiring creative space with lots of natural light.
And a cozy breakfast nook to start my mornings.
