Soothing Seafoam

While the photos that kicked off this color-themed week represent the color scheme of seafoam with hints of gold and champagne as applied through fashion, the rooms below are examples of the palette applied to interior design.

As with Wednesday's inspiration room (and subsequent board,) the first three spaces also include hints of sunshine in their color stories.

Or textile choices.

And there is always the lovely and ubiquitous posters below.

A Room Reveals A Wedding {Seafoam & Sunshine}

For this week's Wedding Wednesday, we are continuing our look at the color palette of seafoam with hints of gold and champange with A Room Reveals A Wedding.

The inspiration room incorporates not only seafoam, gold, and champagne, but olive green and golden yellow as well, creating a refreshing, yet energetic palette. The space is traditional, but with a playful and slightly eclectic air, and the wedding, like the room, would be traditional with a twist.

Beyond the Sea

I've been completely infatuated with the color palette of seafoam mixed with hints of gold and champagne in recent months, and these images by Amy Neunsinger capture the beauty of this scheme perfectly.






Simply staring at this colorway seems refreshing, leading me to believe the palette is ideally suited for summer fashion!

Not surprisingly, as the popularity of seafoam reaches back to previous decades, there are a number of pieces available in this shade through the vintage shops on Etsy.

Stay tuned because there is still more seafoam and gold to come!
