Capsule wardrobes inspired by art and nature
February 2, 2013 To make up for my paltry blogging efforts this week as my household battles the Norovirus, I now present for your study the very lovely Poppy Red, with the Common Capsule Wardrobe, the Common Work Capsule Wardrobe, and the Common Warm Capsule Wardrobe. This is indeed a color that works with everything!

I thought that this one was challenging, so I tossed in some accessories that blend warm colors with the cool of the violet. I think it turned out quite well!

January 18, 2013 This isn't exactly as bright as I think "Lemon Zest" is supposed to be, but I thought that this shade of yellow was particularly well-suited to a conservative environment. It also might be a bit kinder to some complexions...

This flu season means that any of us could be called upon to dash off to a friend's or family member's for a day or two, to pick up prescriptions, do a load or two of laundry, and make a cup of tea.So your laundry IS quite up to date, your toiletries are packed and ready to go, including a few days worth of your prescriptions? Don't forget something to read, the charger for your telephone, and some cash and small bills (just in case you have to hang around the hospital and eat out of the vending machines).
And you HAVE had a flu shot? it's not too late...

Someone asked "Why all the focus on Pantone colors?"
Well, for no reason that I understand, Pantone is the organization making color "recommendations" twice a year which seem to be heeded by a wide variety of businesses. Housewares, bedding, clothing - all sorts of things will be manufactured in these colors in the next 2 years.
From our perspective, if one of these colors is a favorite, this is the time to start looking for it to appear in stores!
If you are interested in seeing more, you can find the latest Pantone Color Planner and other documents in the Planning Documents section of the website.
