{Lust List} Entertaining In Color Part Two

Daydream-In-Color-Lust-List-Entertaining-In-Color-Part-Two

Linens By The Roll ($22-42) | Rainbow Nesting Mixing Bowls ($65) | Over The Rainbow Cupcake Liners ($9) | Rainbow Paper Straws ($3.52) | Retro Polka Dot Coasters ($23/4)

I’ve long been fascinated by these linens on a roll, but now that warmer weather may be around the corner, I’m figuring out what colors to choose. I have a set of these Zak bowls and I love how lightweight they are. Pouring flour into the mixer is no big feat as it is sometimes with glass or porcelain. The other goodies can be bought and pulled out one color at a time if rainbow isn’t your thing!

Read Entertaining In Color (part one) here.

I’m so excited for summer and all the al fresco dining we’ll be doing now that we have a backyard. In the mean time, I’ll be daydreaming in fun and colorful foods available in all colors of the rainbow! Don’t they just evoke thoughts of carnivals, fairs, and happy childhood memories?

What’s your favorite colorful food?

Today we’re switching it up and having a Color Destination post. I’m working a few hours tomorrow, so today doesn’t really feel like Friday. At work, at the end of every official month we have Chocolate Fridays. We have candy bars for everyone in the building. So, today’s I’m pretending by “travelling” to 100% Chocolate Cafe in Tokyo Skytree in Japan desgined by Wonderwall (via Spoon & Tamago). Seriously, just look at their website and you’ll wish you were there right now.

Daydream In Hot Pink & Light Purple

Dorothy Perkins Butterfly Print Umbrella ($17) | Party Straws ($8/50) | Marie-Helene De Taillac 22-karat Gold Spinel Chain Ring ($1175) | Scalloped Circles ($7/48) | Markus Lupfer Heart Embellished Cardigan ($450) | Nasty Gal Sugar High Satchel ($19) | Markus Lupfer Milkshake Sweater ($442) | Leigh & Luca Vintage Birds Scarf ($156) | Acne Satya Dress ($413) | Pink and Purple Room | Sophia Webster Satin and Leather Peep Toe Pumps ($490) | K Jacques St. Tropez Patent Sandals ($300) | Frisia Lips High Heel Sling Back ($695)

I think I subconsciously knew I was going to write this post because I definitely paired a hot pink silk shirt with a light purple floral scarf today. This seemingly saccarine sweet combo appeared to me when I saw that adorable sequinned heart cardigan by Markus Lupfer. Then, suddenly it was everywhere I looked! The funny thing about this combo is that it’s so feminine, but could easily be paired with a darker color like black to tone down. Plus, wouldn’t it look great with leather?

Do you like the combo of hot pink and light purple?

Meanwhile, I’ll be daydreaming in in one of my favorite cookies ever. They’re so colorful and yummy. How can you resist!

{Collecting Rainbows} Chocolate Mugs

My favorite thing to wrap my paws around when the air starts cooling down is hot chocolate. There is something so comforting about it. Topped with a few marshmallows and this adorable pastel chocolate cup ($17) and I’d be golden!

{Taste} Portland, OR: Meriwether’s

 

Meriwether’s | 2601 NW Vaughn St Portland, OR 97210 | 503- 228-1250

One of my favorite places for brunch in town is Meriwether’s (I’ve mentioned it before here). It’s set in the location of the 1905 World’s Fair and has dark wood interiors that make it seem cozy. In the summer, we sit out in the beautifully manicured garden with birdhouses and colorful flowers. Plus, the food is always fast, consistent, and delicious. We’ve pretty much have had everything on the menu now. The corned beef hash served in a skillet, the fresh breakfast pizza, chickpea soccas, the tall and complex huevos rancheros. They get all their produce from their own farm. Today we opted for eggs benedict (the eggs are extra big here!) and the coconut fried chicken and waffles with bacon. Soooo good!

What’s your favorite place to eat outside where you live?

{Collecting Rainbows} iPhone Popsicles

It’s not technically summer anymore, but how can anyone resist these adorable popsicle iPhone cases ($25)? Besides, the stick can bend back to be used as a stand. How cute and convenient!

Daydream In Aqua & Skintones

Pinwheels & Swimsuit | Brown Sugar Pecan Ice Cream | I Want To Ride My Bicycle | Water Slide | Flower Crown Girl | Dress & Pineapple Drink | Wedding Cake | Diving Board

I’ve been dealing with a lot of stressful situations lately and so I feel like I haven’t quite gotten a summer. I’m still delayed daydreaming in the sun and the beach. Especially in aqua and skintones (for bathing suits!). This imagery relaxes me and makes some of my worries wash away…

How are you celebrating the end of summer?
