Color Day Themes: Fly Away with Us

Anyone out there share our wanderlust (and secret obsession with The Chipmunk Adventure movie)?  If so, this board is for you!  Riding in a hot air balloon is often thought of as romantic, but, as Jen learned first hand, it actually can be kind of awkward - think you, your lover, and the creepy balloon man.  Nevertheless, hot air balloons are amazing, whimsical and truly, truly beautiful to watch.  Plus, there is something extremely liberating about going wherever the wind takes you!

The Jewelry Box

If you're anything like us, then you probably have a TON of jewelry you've collected over the years. We tend to keep everything, but the problem is we end up losing half of it because it's all over the place!  Or, if we don't lose it, it ends up tangled in a knot at the bottom of our purse. Get organized and keep all your precious "jewels" intact with some stylish jewelry boxes.

 


XOXO,

Liven Up Your Office Space

Sad to not be shopping for school supplies like everyone else?  Shop for office supplies instead! How you express yourself at work varies depending on where you work. Sometimes the best way to make your statement is right at your own office / cubicle / desk. As a general rule, stay away from cute baby posters (à la Angela from the office), collages of Rob Pattinson, and knick knack overloads.  But definitely opt for some art, cute desk accessories, and the like to give your office some flavor. Here are some ideas:

Color Day: Magenta, Plum, and Teal

Today's color board was made for our friend, and bride to be, Val.  Over the weekend Jen was able to catch up with Val and of course she had to ask what her wedding colors would be. Although Val didn't seem totally sure on this kind of modern jewel tone/semi-peacock color combination, we love it and think these vibrant colors really represent her energetic, fun-loving personality well.  So, Val, this one's for you!  We hope it helps to ease your wedding stress and to get you revved up for all the fun planning you have coming your way!

Back to School: Dorm 101 featuring PB Teen

Back to school time is upon us and, for some of you, that means getting ready to go off to college for the first time.  Before you grab your twin XL sheets and Easy Mac and get ready to depart, be sure you've picked up some of the other essentials to help keep you organized and add a little character to your room.  Sure, you might not be allowed to paint the walls, but that doesn't mean you can't have fun with your space.  Here's a look at some of the great dorm decor items available at PB Teen.

Back to School Bags!

We're not sure how many of our readers are going back to school this fall, and even though back to school shopping is a fond memory for us, we still can't help posting about it. For starters, everyone knows that back to school means getting a new bag. Now call us old fashioned, but we're into book bags again. And we're not talking your old school 6th grade Jansport (although you will see some Jan Sport in the mix). We're talking some truly stylish pieces that will make you wish you were back to school, roaming the halls, skipping classes... ahhh the good old days!
