Lately I’ve been looking at the world through rose colored glasses. I don’t know if I can give all the credit to Justina Blakeney and her #plantsonpink, (although credit where credit is due), but it seems that nature photos awash in bright pink hues have been popping up consistently in my own photo album.
Here are a few images taken on my favorite camera app on my phone, Hipstamatic. I like this app because of all various film + lens combinations that are possible, and using the shake-to-randomize feature which often produces unexpected results. Hence a pink Lake Tahoe.
The other method I used, in the case of the pink palm tree, is an app called DeluxeFX, which has a few false color options. I thought it had a pretty neat effect in this case.
I love the surreal and psychedelic quality and think it makes for great color inspiration.

We may be heading into Fall here in the US, but if you’ve seen any of the new runway collections [or live in Australia] you may be feeling like Spring has just arrived. There’s a sense of whimsical girlishness that I love about both J. Crew and Lisa Perry’s collections; an accessible quirkiness that isn’t overly sweet or femme. I hope everyone out there is off to a great week!

Thanks to daylight savings, it felt even more impossible to drag yourself out of bed this morning, didn’t it? Here’s hoping a bright bit of color inspiration makes your Monday a little more worthwhile.

This past weekend many of my D.C. friends participated in the Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure event, raising money for a very good cause. So I thought it only fitting to start this week off with a little pink.
