Here's what's fun about Pinterest (for me at least, but then again, I'm a bit of a nerd about these things): It has the ability to magically tell you things you didn't know about your own aesthetic sensibility. (Or maybe you did know them, but you'd been repressing said things out of some sense of denial since you vehemently proclaim to all in earshot that you're a "neutrals girl..." Hypothetically, of course.)

Case in point, I recently viewed all of my pins for the first time in a while and noticed an unmistakable pattern in the form of some serious coral/tomato/cobalt/azure action. Friends, I am digging on the orange, red, and blue, big time, starting with that photo above by Mario Testino. Nadia in red velvet against that sky blue background is just beyond gorgeous, yes?Then there's the matter of the identity handiwork of Belgian design firm Coast...Or how about this blue Hermès goodness happening against a hefty dose of orange courtesy of Bergdorfs (who, it should be noted, also boasts a rather killer blog).Now let's pause for a solo moment of pure, unadultrated electric blue (a.k.a. Nars' gorgeous Outremer eyeshadow). I might be a wee bit old for this action, but no matter. I'm buying it. And I'm actually going to wear it...

Maybe.I would, however, wear every. single. item. from Costello Tagliapietra's Spring 2014 ready-to-wear collection, starting with this fetching persimmon skirt teamed with a black shell and some fetching (yep) blue and black sandals.Kathleen Ryan, I dig your work in all its blue and pinky orange glory.I also seriously dig everything about this image — the stunning girl, her insane dress, that red jacket tossed over her shoulders, her pale blue satchel... That list alone makes it loving list-worthy. The fact that she's about to cross paths with a cobalt-t clad fellow? Well that just pushes the whole enterprise over the edge.Last but not least, there's the insanely cool sienna/ochre/navy/slate knit work featured in the Bucks New Uni showcase for their new textiles graduates. Love.
