When I was a kid my first swing set was metal with a graphic orange and white pattern. I wish I could find a photo of it - the pattern actually was very comparable to Marimekko or Orla Kiely. I picked it out when I was about three. Around age eight I asked my mother why she let me choose that set - she told me that my favorite color at that time was orange. At the time I remember thinking how tacky that was. Well fast forward a couple of decades and not only was my very first favorite color a signature of arguably one of the chicest fashion houses around (Hermes), but it is still a color that resonates with me. My very favorite time of year is the fall - the changing color of the leaves, warm days and cooling evenings, pumpkin patches and halloween. As I am still assessing patterns of what I like for interiors I have pinpointed that I like neutral color palettes; both pale and dark and saturated. I do like a little pop of something to keep it from being too boring and I keep gravitating towards oranges and corals. I love how they look with browns, blues and grays.

Jean Larette via House Beautiful - I do love this. The whole house is amazing in my favorite, Napa Valley, but how great would a coral throw pillow or blanket be in this arrangement?

| Need to show this one to dear husband - great inspiration for his home studio! |

| via Elle Decor - I love the Hermes blankets especially in the signature orange. I am contemplating getting the throw or perhaps the pillow for the daybed in my dressing room. |
