Spring Colors Week: Day 5 {white}

By Emily on April 8, 2011

At first glance, white does not seem like a spring color. It seems to belong to spring’s predecessor, no question. But white really is the color of spring cleaning. I’ve come to realize in recent years that, for the home, I do not like beige – I like the crisp, clean modernity of white. It’s […]

Spring Colors Week: Day 4 {lavender}

Spring Colors Week: Day 4 {lavender}

By Emily on April 7, 2011

When people ask me my favorite color, I generally say green – but I’m always sort of torn between green and purple. Lately I’ve been weirdly into teals (the other day I realized I had a teal phone and a teal iPod in the pocket of my teal fleece jacket…right). I’m also partial to oranges. […]

Spring Colors Week: Day 3 {pink}

By Emily on April 6, 2011

When I saw that pink was one of the colors this week, it almost caused me to opt out. Pink…is not my signature color. I’m not sure if it’s the girly-ness or the fact that it totally clashes with my hair (the horror!) but it’s just never really been my deal. All that being said, […]

Spring Colors Week: Day 2 {yellow}

By Emily on April 5, 2011

Back in business for day 2 of the Poppytalk Spring Colors Week. Today’s color? Yellow – I’m not sure there’s a more spring color, especially after so many months of gray, gray, gray. (photos from dawn521, amy~ homegrown, only because mushroom asked me to, simply stardust, loveitaly, Die Frau im Haus, bonjour celine!, and KatjaR.)

Spring Colors Week: Day 1 {green}

By Emily on April 4, 2011

For most of the people I know, this week is spring break. For a few, spring break was two weeks ago or is around the corner. Sadly, despite working at a university, this break of which they speak is not for me. And yes, I’m feeling very, very sorry for myself. Actually, although I can’t […]

About Me

photo of miamired I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a language and culture assistant through the Spanish government, traveling, and writing about it here. After a few years back in my home state of Montana, I moved to Austin, Texas, where I like to go exploring, take pictures of my food, write letters, dream of far-off places, and think about concepts of home.
