We're officially starting to look for our next Brooklyn apartment — where our home will be come June, only Craigslist knows. I've started thinking about what colors I want to bring into our next space. I'm obsessed with this website that instantly generates a color palette based on any photo. Inspiration for decorating a room can really come from anywhere — and this Colors Palette Generator just made it that much easier.
I took myself to the site of one of my favorite people, the uber-talented stylist Lili Diallo. Working with Lili on big fun decorating shoots is one thing I do miss about my old job. A day of listening to her French accent, unpacking props while shaking it to Beyonce, and hearing her tell stories of her native land makes for a lovely day. I also know Lili as my necklace style mentor — she always has the best jewelry on, and she naturally knows how to layer necklaces just right. You may recognize Lili from all her work at Domino — and her stunning DUMBO apartment was just featured in Living Etc. I'm not surprised that I found my dream color palettes for two rooms right on her site. The photo above has just the right mix of soft blues and grays with a splash of yellow-orange for our next kitchen. Here's my color palette:
Our current bedroom is a deep Moroccan blue that we love — it's inspired from our blue room at the hotel where we stayed in Paris. If something works, why not keep it. That's what I say. Here's an inspiration color palette for our next bedroom — another stunning photo styled by Lili.
