Closets

Guest Posting over at Decor Happy Blog!

Hi Everyone,

Today I’m guest blogging over at Decor Happy Blog.  My good friend Vanessa has been hosting a series of organizing guest posts.  Today I am talking about how I organize my shoes in my closet!

Here’s just a sneak peek:

Decorate As You Dress: Tangerine Tango!!

This is the first “Decorate As You Dress” blog post of the year and I thought why not start it off with Pantone’s 2012 Colour of the year:  Tangerine Tango!!

image

“Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”

image

Now let’s take a look at how you can incorporate this vivacious colour into your wardrobe or home decor:

image

I absolutely adore this spring coat as much as I adore this headboard.  Now that’s the way to add some POP into your room!!

image

image

On the other hand, this kitchen is definitely over the top orange which is something I would NOT recommend doing in your home but I would definitely wear that cute orange outfit above.

image

Pops of orange like these counter stools or the dining room chairs below is a much palatable way to go with decorating your home in this hue!  And used with whites is a sure-fire way to garner positive attention.

image

Definitely much more refined looking when such a bright colour is used as more of an accent!

But if you want to stop traffic at your next gala event, then this gown is the way to go!!!  STUNNING!!

image

And just as stunning is this front door.  What a way to welcome guests to your home!

image

image

I’m actually coveting this glorious wallpaper along with these oh so glam Steve Madden shoes!!!  Be still my beating heart!!

image

In case you want to run out and paint a feature wall in this colour, Benjamin Moore has a similar colour called Tangerine Melt CC-091.

image

If I have inspired you to incorporate this wonderful colour into your home or closet, here are a few tips:

1)   This hue is magical when used as an accent against a neutral background, especially with greys!

image

2) Don’t be afraid to use in colour combinations such as blue & orange or pink & orange!

image

image

Wow, I love this glamorous girly look for my Glam Cave!!

3)  Don’t be shy about incorporating this colour into your wardrobe or home decor…start off small, then go from there!

image

Like this or like this……

image

4)  This colour is not for everyone so if it doesn’t suit your skin tone or you absolutely hate anything orange in your home, then DON”T DO IT!!  Instead try Benjamin Moore’s 2012 colour of the year: Wythe Blue (HC-143).  I’ll blog about this colour later this week.image

So tell me….are you ready to tango with the tangerine?

If you want to know how to decorate your home for 2012, then contact me online or via twitter…I’d love to help!

Glamorously yours,

Christine xoxo

Glamour Friday: Inside the Kardashian Sisters’ Closets

I readily admit that I do NOT watch “Keeping up with the Kardashians” (or whatever the show is called?) but I will admit that the sisters are pretty glamorous looking.  So I thought we should take a peek into their closets for today’s Glamour Friday post!!!

Kim’s Closet

 

Kim's Outerwear Collection

Kim's Jewelry Box

Here are some of Kim’s tips on organizing a glamorous closet: “Always use the same style of hangers throughout,” she says. Dresses are arranged long to short, and jackets are sorted by texture. And to create a boutique-like vibe, she likes to “showcase the most beautiful” pieces. She also says to “hide T-shirts in a cupboard or drawer. It’s so hard to keep them nicely folded.” Finally, toss anything that doesn’t fit. “I sell those pieces on eBay and donate the proceeds,” she says.

Khloe’s Closet

Apparently there are more than 100 pairs of Louboutins between the 3 sister closets – crazy!!

Which closet is your favourite?  Think I’m lusting after Khloe’s closet!!  It’s a Glam Slam for me!!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Glamorously yours,

Christine  xoxo
