Life as a moodboard on Instagram

Yes, the blog is a little slow these days.

On Instagram (at last)

Yes! I have Instagram now!

I'm still getting the hang of it but I'm having lots of fun and loving it. 

You can check my profile here: life_as_a_mooboard. And I also added an Instagram button on the right column, next to my other social networks.

Now I just need a little bit more natural light to use anything as an excuse to walk around the house taking more of these snapshots.

Nudes and Pinks | Trendy Mediterranean Tones

Today we have some colour inspiration from my vacation photographies.

In the so many different places I visited, I could always find the tones that are really trendy for this Autumn/Winter - the whole range from nudes to dark pinks.

[ moss-grown ]

While I was out enjoying one of the wonderful Spring days we had this month, I couldn't help but stop and take a few photographs of these beautiful mossy tones on a very weather-worn patio.

VASE SELECTION | in the mood for Spring

With Spring almost here, I'm feeling the urge to bring inside some greeneries and flowers.

I especially like little vases where you can put a single flower or twig. 

It looks beautiful in a minimalistic way, and demands a lot less maintenance. 

Hope you like my small selection...

a moodboard for my brother

I recently got the most wonderful news... my brother will be a daddy for the first time!

Of course I'm over the moon with the idea of having a new baby in the family. And of course I already made my brother promise me that, even though I'm so far away,  he'll let me help with the decoration of the nursery. (that's what web cams are for, right?)

And here's a bit of inspiration for the future parents.

Congratulations you two!

Christmas Inspiration Board

Maybe it's too soon to be thinking about Christmas decorations. But I like to start putting them up on the 1st of December, and I want to have a plan. Well not really a plan. Something like inspiration guidelines. That's why I started a Pinterest Board called | Christmas Inspiration | .

I'm going for some neutral tones and bits of green (a discrete green, and mostly with plants). Also, If I don't feel too lazy, I'd love to make some of the decorations myself. Last year I hanged my own Advent Calendar and some other black and white prints and I really liked the effect. So I've been collecting some more ideas for DIY's that I just may try this year. In paper, or yarn...simple things, nothing to tricky.

Even though I love Christmas - it's without a doubt my favourite time of the year - sometimes the whole thing can be a bit overwhelming. I think that decorating my home following these guidelines will help me keep some of it's usual tranquillity. Especially if it snows...cross my fingers and hope!

If you like the style, you can follow me on Pinterest and stay updated as I continue gathering ideas. 

Colour Inspiration | warm soft tones

Still inspired by these soft warm tones for Autumn.

A cosy feeling given by the discrete combination of nude, faded green and grey.

Colour Inspiration | Nude

Lately I've been having a serious crush on  nude tones.

Maybe it's the nostalgic feeling of early Autumn...
