COLOR-COORDINATED

When I first saw this pretty picture, I thought to myself three things... 

1. Displaying clothes on clothing racks is totally underrated. 

It's a great solution for apartment dwellers who are short on closet space — just hang your favorites in the bedroom! (This one is just $23!) Plus it adds color to white walls you can't paint. Speaking of color...

2. Organizing by color is kind of genius.

Need a blue top to go with that green skirt? Coming right up. Think of all the new combinations you'd dream up by having your clothes in plain view! Which of course brings me to #3...

3. My wardrobe is seriously lacking in color.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I inherited my mother's love of navy blue and white. But it's time to start branching out, at least in colors that pair well with my tried-and-true basics!


What do you think? How do you organize your clothes?!

JACK ROGERS PREPPY PARTY

You know how I feel about my Jack Rogers (remember this?) so I'm positively thrilled to be co-hosting the brand's Preppy Party with Carly of The College Prepster and Fred of Unabashedly Prep. The event is tomorrow night at the Jack Rogers store in New York and I am crossing my fingers that I'll get to meet some of you lovely readers in person!

Do stop in and say hello if you're in the neighborhood. I'll be the one with red hair, this navy dress, and these monogrammed Jacks ;) And if you're not in NYC, be sure to follow along on Twitter using #lovemyjacks!

COLOR ME CORAL

You won't see me in a coral dress anytime soon but I will say I find myself gravitating toward this summery hue more and more when it comes to accessories and interiors (where I don't have to worry about how the color clashes with my hair!). Here are a few of my picks for rocking coral in small doses:

Virginia Johnson "Coral" print // Loren Hope necklace // Anthropologie ceramic basket
 Topshop tassel // Design Darling coral matches // Tipsy Skipper clutch
Design Darling mini vase // Devon Baer Designs earrings //Diane von Furstenberg wedges

PB Teen rug // Privet House at Target bowl // Poppy King for J.Crew lipstick

The coral vase is part of Monday's batch of new arrivals and the clutch is one of my friend Kearsley's darling creations. Have any of you worked this color into your closet or your home lately? I think I'm slowly becoming a coral convert!
